vans/pro tec pool party day 1

Our shop was chosen for a free trip out to california to watch the vans/pro tec pool party, courtesy of vans. Of course we accepted and tim and I went. They paid for our flight, hotel, go karting, bar tab, and meals. We probably only spent a couple of dollars on little things. It was definately worth the trip.

The view from our hotel window.











Me in the elevator.


We walked outside to the pool area and saw the sickest koi fish pond.











After lurking the koi pond, vans took all of us(there were other shops from around the country) go karting at this indoor track.


In the racing outfit.


For electric karts they were hella fast. Lots of crashes.








I had a bad headache from all the flying and eating right before go karting didn't help my stomach, so i went outside and threw up on some bushes.





Then I went to the hotel and fell asleep.

abandoned... again

Some more stuff from that putt putt place.



Notice how the board is coming right at me.



Lip skidder on the parking block. I think he came in fakie.

gone fishing

Some fish caught by me and my friend jazz.

riding walls

This is me doing a wallride at this somewhat slanted wall by my house.

holy schnikes

broslide!

Probably about 2 months ago tim, jay, paulo, and me went and skated these marble ledges. We actually didn't even skate them. Tim and jay just started to mess around on this ledge and decided to do doubles.

abandoned part 2

These are some polaroid pictures of my friends tim and chris skating the abandoned golf course.


Chris doing a frontside slash on this wave that has no runway.


A different angle of tim doing a tailskidder.

abandoned

We (tim, jay, and me) drove and hour and a half to skate this abandoned mini golf place. It definately was one of the best places around. There are 6 different things to skate. You could probably film a video part here.


Tim, doing what he does best.


Jay filmed the awesomeness that went down.


Then as we were leaving, we say this doodle on a tower pole. I think it was an attempt at a neckface drawing. Who knows.

old man jay

This is an old photo (probably 3 to 4 years old) of my friend jay. If my memory is correct, he's doing a fakie back lip pop out at a school by my house.

this is for reals!!

If anyone knows lurker then you know that this is a serious picture that he probably used on the space.

gnarly charlie

louie!

ollie by jay

this is another good friend jay, definately an old picture.

airTIMe

This is a friend tim, doing a backside grab at olliewood bowl. He's pretty good at getting air.

First things first.

This is the first post, and I use a picture of me not skating. More like falling. Awesome.
