In an effort to keep up to date, here's a super quick July 4 USA USA USA update!


Schoolyard kicker? Check. John Mcguire is in town for USA's birthday and he will do nipple high no complies like he doesn't even care. On the right Gabe Chan does an airwalk. Or maybe it's an anti airwalk. I'm not old enough to know the difference.


Here's gabe with a glorious one foot tailgrab. Makes me so proud to be an American.



When you cookout, don't forget the Thousand Island. USA USA USA!

So much has happened since my last update that there's no use in summing it up with some retarded paragraph. Instead, I will do what seems to be the longest update in pictures that I've ever done. On a side note, it looks as though Josh added a spell check to the updater. I wonder why....EDIT: Disregard that last comment, it's just the new version of Firefox.

This was our dance party. Steve obviously got MVP, but I assure you that everyone else was killing it along side the handsome man. Check out that fog machine! Here's what happened next...

This is why I stopped drinking altogether.



Textbook piece of shit.

Chinatown from a rooftop.

Now for the goodies...There was a bike ride that took place under the BQE (Brooklyn-Queens Expressway). There was a BMX division, and a track bike division. It was pretty rad, although not too many people actually raced, probably due to the fact that the course included running some pretty sketchy intersections. Totally rad to watch though.

I guess Vance has been in town...

I Skated the vert ramp yesterday and spent the good part of an hour trying to do a smith grind. I did do one though and I felt kind of manly. I also spent some time up in the trees doing the rope course.


Jed had a hotdog to celebrate being on the ground and Chase did some rad manuvers on the half pike.

This bar is pretty sweet!

Doing sweet spins in the foam pit is super cool! Fish pics coming up soon!

We went skating last Saturday.


Pat Forster - Frontside Boardslide to pop over the knobby in an alley somewhere. I have a version with better lighting, but Pizzy's feet were goofy looking. Nice one Pat. Or perhaps, nice one me. But yet again, another example of the awesome spots we skate.


Here's a much better lit photo of Pizzy in the same alley. Pizzy, I think we're goign to have to give you an intervention soon. On the right we took it to another awesome spot where the landing was covered with broken glass. That didn't stop Tim from doing...


...nipple high mute jumpers off the vaguely angled loading dock. I'm not really sure that it's angled so much as it's on a hill and just stays level. Either way Tim wasn't skerred of the broken glass and he blasted like a champ. In more ways than one, too.


This homemade spot got all messed up, so we made our own homemade spot on top of the old homemade spot and Neal Shah did a backside nosepick on it.


We ended the day at this spot. There were a bunch of people practicing a choreographed dance right next to the run up and were totally psyching out the Pizz. I had to keep telling him that he needed to get dead serious and land this 5-0 fakie (which he had already done before, like five years ago) if he hoped to "blow up" and someday end up on Fuel Tv. He got so stoked that he landed it the very next try. Nothing gets Pizzy going more than Fuel Tv does.

We'll end this with two more things that I'm really into, backyard cookouts:



And animals!



Stay horn.

They got a lot of things going on at camp. One of the projects is getting a blank board, sand the edges, put a little sealer on there, paint it, and you got yourself a custom rig. My nephew made one. As you can see, his whole crew is hyphy. Chester is keeping it "real" but a little blue in the face.

This kid is super gangster. Below is a picture of my dream boat. The Lunker. Finally, Pink Worm killed it.

I was going through photos and stuff, and there's just too much. I decided that as per Josh's request, I'm going to let the world know what I've been up to. Obviously I'll spare the empty comments like "as if you care" because let's face it; you're reading this/looking at it.

There's too much to tell, so I decided to start with my last night (pt. 8) at Rivers.

Josh was spitting beer in the air, and it pretty much ruled. Next we have a bit of funny stuff from when I was a kid. It's a letter I wrote my parents when I was at summer camp.

Here's how I spent my first weekend in town. Beaching it up with the crew in Connecticut

Finally, this is what the hallway in my new house looks like. It's pretty amazing and I really lucked out. I'm going to keep the updates coming, but for now I'll keep it short because I don't want to push out all the rad updates Ellis has been doing with his new camera. In the next few updates, I'll cover our dancing sessions with rare photos of STPG killing it on the dance floor and the suicide ride.

Another day at the famous Lake Owen skate camp. The dudes from Cream City are really holding it down. They are drinking root beer floats by the dozen and snacking like crazy men. Here are some pictures of the crew:



We have been holding down the streets in Cable. Posting up on White Dog Road is where it's at.

Well, I made my way up to beautiful Lake Owen Skatecamp. I haven't showered in days and the cabin smells like a wet log. We have a few kids from the The Greatest Place On Earth and they seem to be having a wonderful time, other then getting rhea from the taco grill. Here are pictures of some action at the camp:



Fishing, beer, bears, beer, frogs, beer, and a firemen anal party with some beer. They got it all at camp. OH YEAAAAH!

Zero & Mystery Demo + Video Premiere
Saturday, June 30th 6pm.
Cream City Skatepark


It's summer and the living is good.


I've cooked out the last 6 out of 7 days and my carbon intake is at an all time high. I'm thinking about just moving my bed and the tv into the backyard. Might as well. I should probably mention that all of these pictures are from last Tuesday. Tuesday is an official skate day, so the rest of this post will be huge skate photos.


A stupid hippy jump for a stupid spot. By Danny Stemper, of course.


A rare moment on Tuesday when Tim wasn't breaking my video camera. Frontside Rock.


Danny opted to go over the hip and lipslide.


We later took it to Cream City for Old Dude Night and Bill Kaschner was smith grinding the deep end of the bowl like a maniac.


Then we took it over to the rail and Bill did this terror filled nollie tailslide.

That's it for today. More huge skate photos later this week.
