Well, I lied. I've got a little clip here from Jackson Mann. The weather has been so lame so we decided to head here as a default spot because it's always a fun sesh. (If the link gets changed and breaks I apologize, I will try to fix broken links asap)

It's been a minute. I don't have much left on my harddrive so bear with me. It's getting real cold now and the rain and snow have moved in so I doubt much will be happening in the next few weeks. I've also got a ton of last minute schoolwork and finals to handle. Basically, the site will be dead until around Christmas most likely. I'll do my best.
Orchard released Out of Body Experience on DVD. Pick up a copy in shop or online, it's sick and has tons of bonus footage. Bro kills it.

Hey guys, I haven't updated in a few days since I went home for Thanksgiving. It rained pretty much the whole time so nothing really happened. Here's an old clip of Joey at the hood banks in Philly.

I'm headed home tomorrow for Thanksgiving. See you at Chi park and hopefully the Zero premiere dudes! Here's a clip from the summer York opened that Steindl filmed.

Zero's STRANGE WORLD premiere this Wednesday, 11/25 @ Kinetic- 8:30 PM
Here's an old clip from the URP days, Brian tried this trick for a bit but never pulled it clean.

Whabos got that clip! Tommy was able to get around China's firewall and update the blog a bit. Here's two tricks from Bam's last winter.

I kind of slacked off a bit, I just uploaded a whole bunch of clips to hold me through another week or two though. While they are finishing converting check out this clip from SkatePerception's OG shit talker extraordinaire and Boston local Jason Jenkins via his blog, RE1000.
Also, Edward Duff III has some stuff up over at PA Circle J that's looking good.

Not much going on. It's starting to get pretty cold up here. Here's a promo that premiered before the Orchard video (which was REALLY good) edited by Emerson grad Chris Keiley.

I'm running out of clips and things to say. I might just have to start posting really old clips from now on. Here's one from the spot dubbed Mission Impossible from about two years ago.

Supposed to be nice this weekend, hopefully I will get some shred time in. Here's some clips from this really awkward spot we skated on Wednesday. Orchard video premiere tonight. Go.

Went to Beverly, MA a few weeks ago and skated a nice eight at an apartment complex. Got the stink-eye from old ladies in the parking lot, 20 minutes later got the stink eye + boot from the local police force. On this second attempt, I fell on top of my board primo with my thigh and couldn't skate for a week, and a try or two later my board broke. Very productive session.
Orchard premiere tomorrow, FRIDAY @ 8. See you there.
Kinetic has the new November SBs, blazers are clean. They also got in éS Koston Ones with a vulc sole, so sick.

Did you remember to turn your clock back? DST is here to ruin your sesh. Travis/Note are at it again with the second Memory Gun promo and it's honestly one of the best things I have seen in awhile. Start off your November right and give it a watch.

Happy Halloween! The Hyde Park Hoe Down is happening today, go! It's also a comfortable 72 degrees in Boston today which is PERFECT. Here's an old line from 3 block in the height of the tight pants craze.

Check out Brian Peacock's part in the internet video-saga This Is My Helmet. It's WILD.
Here's an old line that was supposed to end in a nosegrind but never quite made the tilt.
10.29 -
Here's some clips of me trying to hardflip 5 block. We got the boot and I never really tried it again. Someone has since done it, so I just gave up on it. Oh well.
10.28 -
Something is wrong with blip so the video I posted earlier isn't working. Here's another throwaway clip instead.
10.27 -
Check out old NJ homey Kyle Barton's part from his shop's promo. Dude, you need to chill with the gremlin call.
Also, check this photo of Willy Akers shot by Zander.
Here's a throwaway clip of some random benches on the way to York.

Don't have my own clips today so I'll keep it short. Pops and The Gonz get gnar on a circle board.
*** Oh, also HOLY SHIT.
(It's an impossible)

Alright so I didn't skate this weekend really. It sucked. I don't have any clips prepared and uploaded so I am just going to post these two RAW montages (#1 & #2). Richie and I will be making our own version soon so be on the lookout. Also you should check this Kevin Coakley Tales of the Black Glove episode.
If anyone in Boston has somehow made it to the site (unlikely), here's some local hapenings:
-Saturday, Oct 31 @ 2 Skate jam at Hyde Park Skatepark
-Friday, Nov 6 @ 8 Orchard premieres their first video, Out of Body Experience. Head to the Tower Auditorium at Mass Art
@ Home
-SOON? I think Ben told me we were having a Strange World premiere at the shop (Kinetic)in the near future. Flyers guys? Where you at? It might not be for a couple weeks or people could be slacking with flyer/facebook updating, I'll let you know as soon as I find out.
Now go shred, there's only a week left before daylight savings time ends and crushes the after school session. GO!

Not much happening. Went to Eggs the other day, had to run from the cops. Weak. Today it's raining. Also weak. Watch this in the meantime. Here are some flatgaps from the other day. DOUBLE OLLIES SICK! I would also like to take this opportunity to commend myself on site upkeep. Yeah, I rock. No but really, it's been one month with 15 updates. That's a pretty good ratio if you ask me. Stay tuned.
10.22 -
Went to Eggs for a bit yesterday. Me and Richie filmed some lipslide variations because those are real hot right now.
For those interested, regional Crailtap rep and Kinetic employee Zach Sheats now has a blog called Crosstown Beef, Worth a check out.

Random bump to sidewalk gap/hydrant ollie. Not much going on.
10.18 -
It snowed today, rain and sleet mostly, but snow here and there. It's only October. I may commit suicide this winter if this is any indication (only joking). Skated this spot the other day, everything is kind of tall, it would be a good spot for DelNegro. Frankly, I don't have that kind of pop.
10.17 -
Super cold, rainy, and gross. It's the perfect weekend to get school work done. Here's an almost land from Barba when he used to skate Kennett Park all day.

JD knows bluntslides...
If some videos stop working just hold tight, something has been funky with the server recently and my links keep getting changed. I will sort it all out.

For Pitzo. It's getting cold up here...

So I found out James Williams, aka The Blacksmith, aka Big Willy Style is in the hopsital. Apparently he is having heart issues and is on a list for a transplant. From what I hear he is in stable conidition just chilling and waiting for a suitable donor. If you guys could all just pray for James if that's your thing, if not just keep him in your thoughts. James, if you read this at the hospital, stay up kid!
Otherwise, sorry for the lack of content over the past few days. I went home for a funeral so I didn't have too much time. I brought my Flip camera back so that should help get some update material. Here's a little commentary courtesy of Daniel Scott who says he quit skateboarding to, and I quote, "play with his dick."

Colin Scott takes long lunchbreaks. That is why his belly is so large. WARNING: This is gross.
10.3 - Bro Chill
Rob is up here for the weekend skating. It's supposed to pour both days. Bummer. Giving up on photos for each update; too lazy. Just links for now. Here's a random flip backtail from a nearby ledge spot.
10.1 - Boogers
Here's Old Man John with a little nosepick from the summer. It's starting to get cold up here...
9.29 - Shanghai Leftovers
New clip up to the right in the Latest Clip box; just some extra things, randoms, throwaway etc from Shanghai. Three days in a row...I am killing it.
9.28 - Wet Marble
I've got a China extras montage coming probably tomorrow. Already edited and whatnot, just holding off for now. Until then, enjoy this clip of Figz getting completely wrecked.
9.27 - Fall
Here's a random clip from a few months ago. I fell right in front of some decent looking breezies while trying to film this line.
9.25 - New Site
Alright so I just finished updating the site. New layout, a couple new things like the latest clip, and hopefully some new content soon. I know I say that I am going to update this thing more often but I am up in Boston now, skating nearly every day, and as soon as I have something to post I will. So far I've filmed some stuff but it's for the Kinetic video so I can't use it. Also, my little Flip camera is in the mail and should be here on Monday so I will try to film at least one thing a day. Who knows. Check back soon!
Some noteworthy clips from the old news thread without copying the whole entire thing:
Amishville day trip, Mathis can't operate his own car.
Same CHIt All Day clip from Chi park, biting Brian's steeze.
Kennett park extras montage from the end of summer.
