It’s Always Sunny in Miami
There’s something about Miami that I can’t quite put my finger on. What was once a swamp is now a developed, fast paced civilization that thrives on it’s local and mystique. It’s called the “magic city” for a reason and will always be a special place to me. After surfing some choppy, cold, northwest wind...
RedBull Bargespin
This weekend, the kind folks at RedBull invited me down to Ft. Lauderdale for the RedBull Bargespin. It was a rad set up consisting of a barge with a BMX park on it and the top RedBull BMX riders putting on demos throughout south Florida. Here are some photos from from the Bargespin demos and...
Fall Runs
It’s officially Fall and I’m loving it. Crisp days run into cool nights and it’s my favorite time of the year to ride. Here’s a few photos from this past week working on and riding the trump.
The Experience
Lately, I’ve been slacking on making any progress on my 75 Harley FLH. It kills me to look at parts strewn across my garage and to think, if I had more time, more money, I could have this done. But it’s not about getting it done. It’s really about the process. Today was part of...
NYC
Spent another great weekend in New York City. So good, I forgot to take more photos. Plenty of high test winter beers, good food, good friends and fun skating as the weather lightened up and let us really take on all aspects the city has to offer. I apologize now for the short intro, but...
Vans Product Launch
This week I was in Huntington Bch, CA for Vans Fall 2011 Product Launch and it was one for the books. It was amazing to see how much great product was being presented and how far Vans has come in the past 45 years. Below are some photos from this past week including skating the...
Puerto Rico Searched
On my way home from Puerto Rico and I’m realizing it was a great call for Rip Curl to hold the contest there this week. I was laughing that it would be flat for the contest, but the weather pulled through and there were some fun waves all week prior to the trials. With the...
House Of Vans
House of Vans… What can I say, I’m still speechless. Had to be one of the most memorable experiences to date. It’s a 25,000 sq. ft. warehouse in Greenpoint that was remodeled to a skateboarders dream. California Skateparks poured an indoor concrete bowl and outdoor street course on par with the rest of their recent...
Weekend Getaway
When I got word that the House of Vans was opening in Brooklyn on October 16th, I went online to find a way to get up there to get in a skate trip before Winter sweeps in. With Jet Blue’s $69 each way ticket, it was a no brainer. I got in early Saturday and...
Skate Trips Rule
The weather is cooling off and it’s officially Fall, my favorite time of the year. I received a call from Mike Peterson last week on my way home from Gainesville, telling me about his trip up to a new park just built in Brunswick, GA. With a few more calls, we were able to rally...
Vans Downtown Showdown @ The Bricks
I have been in talks with Bryan Schaeffer since he opened his new restaurant and bar, The Bricks, in Ybor City. We had been wanting to do a live feed of some Vans event coming up. When Vans announced the Hollywood Downtown Showdown for October 2nd, it was on. We set up at the bar...
Alabummin’ it
Drove out to Birmingham after a big night with the RedBull crew in ATL last night. Rolling with the right heads, we lucked into a soldout Phantogram show at the Drunken Unicorn. Feeling a little rough as I made my way to Alabama and over to Faith Skate Supply. If you’re ever in Birmingham, stop...
