Went to the skatepark today. For the first time in a week the sun was out. The news also said it would be 60. I headed out knowing I need to film stuff for this video that might not drop. (on on that later). Got to the skatepark and 1 guy was there. At the Mendota park you're either good or bad, Me being the only one that is dead middle. This guy was amazing and soon left. I quickly ran to my car and grabed the camera and tripod. Set that shit up and got to work. At first I didn't think I would do it. I have tried this trick on many curbs and decided to give it a go. Couple tries later I got it, and was really pumped. As you can see in the video of my ride away. The scream is not something I do a lot so you know im pumped. The devil horns was something I did and now that I watch it, it makes me fell pretty stupid. Oh well. Watch the ride away.





This "video" is another story. I personley don't think it's going to be done. I'm trying to get a part for me knowing I can, but it's hard filming myself. People just don't want to skate on the weekends when we need to. The worst part is everyone is free Sundays. No one works and no one cares. It's always hard to make a video though. My videos are notorious for being filmed in 3 months or less. Another contributing factor is there is hardly any park skating in videos. I'm the only one who usually does and you can't just go out on weekdays and film at places in the cities. I know Al hates skatepark footage in his parts and Adam tries not to get any. I would rather not have much skatepark footage in the videos anyway. Just seems kinda easy? is the world im looking for I think. You dont have to worry about getting tricks fast, the grounds perfect, and you skate the same stuff day in and day out. Lets hope this video gets done though. I made a rough edit of Al's stuff and he was happy with it. I'm not. It's all good, but he needs a couple things it feels like.
