Guys standing against walls

Final for portraiture. Here it is:

Trailer trash

Been shooting a bunch of photos on trailer beds, apparently.

Tons Of Fun, Kickflip Fakie.

This spot was pretty hard to skate. As you can see, the bank is all sorts of fucked up, and the short run-up consisted of wood planks that would randomly stick out and catch your wheels. Regardless, Tons did this kickflip in true style.



It also happened to be the hottest day of the year. Being from Florida, Tons didn't care.



After taking a quick break in the shade, we found this trailer. Jimmy stepped up to it. The finished photo is being used for a Paradise Wheels ad, but I had to show this one because of Zach's face:


A couple days later, we found this dumpster thing next to a house being remodeled. The guys working on the house were super cool about it.

Tim comin' in hot with a bluntslide.

Matt, blasting over a quick hip.

Lou, sliding on one end and grabbing the other.

Filmer gets gnar. Zach with a melon.

Bryan with a lengthy Noseblunt.

Until next time...

Rollin around

Nate and Zach filming a line.

Kenny Reed's in town! Him and his homie tanner warm up with a game of skate.

Next we went up to this thing. It looks fun, but it's kind of weird. Nevertheless, Tanner rolled away from this from 360 straight into a bush.

Later I got a photo of Nate at this spot. Not posting that one yet.

Then we met a pirate wizard.
The crew.

Thanks to Mighty and Danny for taking the last photo:
Cool kids.

More to come.

BB King!

Bryan Botelho kills it. Here's what I've got lying around.

2011: Gonna be a good one.

Been going out shooting a lot lately. Yesterday we met up with Abair and some of the homies. He wanted to film a line starting with this 5-0.Got it. Next we went to this weird curvy ledge up in the hills. Toby got a sick 50. Up the street we found this bar. Lou was doing hippie hops before an angry lady kicked us out.Ended the night right. Burning some Christmas trees at the beach with the crew.It's going to be a god year.

Rasa Libre Leftovers

Been out shooting with the Rasa Libre crew. Here's some stuff that I've been sitting on. And to start you off:

BAM! Rasa flowbro Jameel Douglas with a Hardflip and the currently skateable Union Square gap.

This spot may look fun, but it is a bitch to skate. Uphill run up, plenty of people moving by, and fast moving traffic about 10 feet away. Regardless, Evan Kinori came through with this front board pop out.

Jesse Narvaez with a switch ollie at this fun little spot. Jesse has been handling business as of late. If you haven't seen his part in the Rasa Libre video, go check it out.

Zach Chamberlin is the Rasa filmer, but he also rips. East bay 5-0.

And I will leave you with this.Matt Field - Ollie

More SF days

So I quit my old job, got a new one, so hopefully I will have some more time to go out and shoot, and therefore update the blog.

So here we got some photos from a day out in the City, skating around downtown. First hit up this nice bump over the sidewalk. Ian Brunkow with a Frontside Flip:

And Leandro with the Backside variation:

Then we headed over to the Transbay Terminal where Ian got this perfect Nollie Cab:


Now this was a couple weeks ago. Just earlier today, I was on my way home from work when I ran into some of the Sacto homies skating at the Library. I quickly ran home, grabbed my board and gear and made it back in time to catch Andy Dicker's Bigflip over the gap:

Making it look easy.

Stay tuned.

LBC nose knowsgrinds.

And he can do some cool shit out of them.

Shove it.


All the while the chinese god of mutiple limbs smiles aprovingly in the background.

3rd and Army with LBC.

Went out today with LBC (Legally Blind Chris) and his loyal companion Roo out to 3rd and army. Chris held it down with the front crook through the bend.

Proof is in the pudding:
