2-28-07

This is the last day of February. It seems like this month as gone by fast. Though this month we've had some pretty harsh cold weather around here. Things are starting to look on the up and up, weather wise. I haven't filmed a whole heck of a lot but hopefully I'll start getting back into some serious filming in the near future. I've been skating at the Warehouse in Clarksville a lot. It's a fun little place to go. I haven't filmed to many lines or anything there, though. I need to get a lot more. Probably throw the rail in the mix there. Adding the flat rail in might make the runs seem more interesting maybe. I don't know. Here's a random video of Daniel getting into his first kickflip backside 50-50 and grinding a little bit. You can tell by his face afterwards how stoked he was. Until next time. Peace.

February 21st


So today was definitely a nice day. Not as warm as I thought it was going to be. I, along with a few other people, skated New Albany Park. I hadn't been down there in a while. We used to have a rock like this out in the park. It's fun to just be riding along then bonk off of or whatever. Then the city, I guess, put it back up under the bridge. That was like last summer. So last week I was sitting around thinking, "I need to get another rock from under the bridge and put it in the park." I like to call it "bonk rock" as you can "bonk" off it or whatever. It's not like it's some huge thing, but just fun to mess around on. So we got one out today and it ended up being a good rock. I was hoping to find the exact same one as the year before but couldn't. I know some of you are probably saying "uhh, OK. A rock. Wow." But there's just something so fun about it to me. It just keeps me having fun and actually adds a little something to the park to me, besides just being a rock. Until next time. Peace.

So who noticed...

...the nice weather around today. Quite a bit different from yesterday's 30 degree high. Today's high was, I believe, 54. Very nice improvement. I didn't skate with anyone today, though. I just skated my flat rail. No one really called me to go skate. But I had so much fun skating my rail by myself for an hour. Here's a video filmed yesterday. It's only a couple tricks, nothing exciting. But it's something. Hopefully I'll get some good filming in sometime this week. Check back soon for more. Peace.

Looks can be.......


So this is what it looked like when I was in my back yard earlier in the afternoon, approxomitely 3:19PM. A perfect skate day? If only the temperature wasn't 29 degrees and the wind blowing wasn't helping much. That doesn't mean there was no skating at all today, though. Skated for an hour and a half or so. We've just recently been going back to The Warehouse in Clarksville. No, it's not an abandoned warehouse but, the name of a gym on the back of a church. Waxed up stairs that grind and what not. Little lines can go down. Pretty good to just go have fun with. That's all for now. Until next time. Peace.

So a new year.......a redesign of this blog


Along the lines of the Habitat Field Log site, this is going to be my Log (or Blog) about my everyday skateboarding and the things that go along with it. I'm going to start taking as many pictures as I can and little videos and what not. This could even include pictures and videos from my cell phone, even, though I want to mostly use the video camera and the digital camera. I may not have much for a little bit because of all the sucky-ass weather we've been having around here. But I'm going to try my best to get stuff up on here as much as possible. If you want to read a blog of my personal life and the such, then go here or my Myspace. Well hopefully I'll be posting some new stuff maybe this weekend or the beginning of next week as the weather may improve a little. I don't know about you, but I don't find it fun skating when it's 23 degrees outside, so pardon me if you think I'm whining about it. Oh and the videos I put up on here will more than likely be videos I've uploaded to YouTube, just to let you all know. So for now, I leave you with this video I made a couple days ago that has some recent footage in it. Oh and yeah the picture, a fun little place to skate. Until next update. Peace.
