but anyways, today, i got really stoked on FS, then we lurked around the park, that was fun, then we were off to kennewick skatepark.
i saw a sweet fight between a couple little duders, it was a racist white kid, he made a bad decision, his life got pwn'd!
then we just sessioned everything in sight...

we went back, its happenin' right now man!
tricks be bangin like crazy!
so, yesterday, we're on a mission to go take photos again at this place
we get there, we roll up, 5 cars, like, 9 dudes deep. its intense
session is about to erupt
we got wax, 2 cameras, good weather, no one else is there.
what a great session!
seriously, i wish i took all the photos of the tricks alex did, i'm gonna estimate like, 17 tricks on this bad boy, it was rediculous
cory did some crazy tricks as well, chris too, i didnt get many photos of zach, but he stepped up and did a front nose on this thing, i thought that was one of the best tricks, cuz thats crazy man.

What day is it?

well, today, i had plans, that got messed up, so i didnt have plans, so i did what i do everyday...
went to golden, played some video games, i dunno, then we went to zumiez so schmale could get some shoes, then when we came back, we went back to that goofy two stair.
basically, alex just did some tricks on the bench upside down.

and this is a front feeble, i know its hard to tell, because i figured i'd shoot a sequence, but my camera just isnt that fast...i like the last frame though.

then later, i went skating with eric, casey, craig, russ, chris, and cory, we just kinda skated around kennewick, i didnt shoot photos though, eric got some bangers i think.

hope you almost enjoi'd this one...
have a nice day.

for justin frey

this post is dedicated to justin frey
last night, i was driving home from taco bell with some people, and at the intersection of davison and newcomer, there was an accident where someone was hit by a car while riding a bicycle, it was easy for us to recognize that, but we didnt want to get involved...
today, i get a phone call from pam, "remember that guy that got hit by a car???that was justin!"
justin is okay, not the best in his life, but he's not dead, i visited him today at the hospital, he's going to be alright.

get well soon justin!

midnight session

last night, austie and i met up with jamie and went to the park for about 15 minutes, warmed up. then went to the parkway area round a about thing, to skate, just skated this ledge thing, then this other loading dock thing. it was pretty fun.
i really need to get a flash, so i can take photos at night, cuz, these didnt turn out that well, i mean, they kinda look cool, but, i'd like to get a flash someday.

capturing jamie's front board pop out was hard, the timing, the angle, agh! maybe this angle isnt that good, but it was hard to show the whole "pop out" part.

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
austin did a lipslide thing as well.

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
austin did a 5-0.

then we went to carmichael middle school to skate this little curb cut kinda thing, just a slight slope, that we skated a couple years ago...that sucked...

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
austin did a shove it

somethings wrong...

frustration


well, last night, my blog was working just fine.
but now, for some reason, my blog isnt showing up, and stuff, and if you're reading this, thats a good thing. you should tell me "hey, i read your blog today"
but, i'm not sure why its not working...

Augest 18th, skate/denny's/skate

what a day!
the plan was this...
meet at golden at 3:00, then go street skating to take some photos and what not.
what actually happend, meet at golden at 3:00, watch some videos, wait for some more people, go to skatepark, then go skate at 5:00...so we were 2 hours late, whatevs, we finally decide on a spot, we go there, its not as fun as we thought it was gonna be,

then afterwards, we were hungry, so we went to denny's for some real food
i'm pretty sure we all ordered extreme grand slams, and it was just an awesome, humorous meal, oh yeah, i had an oreo shake. that was delightful!

this is my milkshake, it brings all the girls to the yard,

after denny's, we went to the "tony hawk gap" dont ask me why they call it the tony hawk gap, i'm not sure where it originated, i just know this, 3 years ago or so, me and some friends were skating with some dudes we didnt know that well, and they said "lets go to the tony hawk gap" thats how it started, and i dont know why its called that...but basically, its just a 2 foot ledge, then sidewalk, then street, nice little fun gap, but, for some reason, i couldnt get my photos to look remotely good...but i gotta sweet photo of this dog... that smelled really really bad.

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
(stinky dog that barks at you.)

then we went to richland high to skate, or to watch taylor skate, all i can say is, rediculous roof gap into an awning that goes over some stairs...
Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
wow.

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
i like this one better.

yeah, theres not much i can say about that except "wow", i felt lucky to take a photo of that.
i'd say, it was a good day, started out slow, but ended alright, except now, i'm REALLY REALLY BORED, and home alone for the weekend. so, people, call me please! entertain me.
until tomorow, have a good one!

more selects...

here are a couple more spiffed up photos that i did today.
this little blog thing seems like its gonna be really fun, just being able to come and write a whole bunch of stuff, and waste your time, but occupy myself. and a little space for me to show off my "work" or "art" or "hobby" or "photography"...whatever
while you view these photos, i suggest you go listen to some Kimya Dawson.

the sun looked kinda cool...so i told cory to ollie
