junk jam

this is a shot of my old friend Jackson taken in front of his dad old place down the street from my house, probably around 2000. this is only a shred of the wacky stuff he would do, jackson didnt know the pros really, and hardly knew the names of tricks, but would still skate bigger and faster and sketchier then anyone. less of a snobby skater confined to the shackles of what tricks and trends are currently core or in vogue, but rather just a really weird kid who just so happened to skate some gnarly shit. now jackson lives in an airstream trailer with girlfreind in missoula. still doing things his own way.

GSD In Minneapolis

So in spirit of GSD write ups on the Budda Kreamas Blog I will tell you my experience of Go Skateboard Riding Day. So I met up with young Nathan Cameron at my old high school and headed towards Minneapolis. I stopped at the 3rd lair to say hi to some old co workers, promply took out a kid and skated the boomerang. Headed to Henklers to watch some n00b pwnage and head to Familia. On the way to Famillia we cranked the heat all the way up and got it up to a balmy 95. At Famillia there were hundreds of kids waiting to take it to the streets. Headed towards downtown via road. There pack took over traffic and didnt stop at red lights. The group stopped at some spots and Henkler gave out some bucks for bangers. Skating down the streets blocking traffic and having security and cops not able to do much is pretty darn cool. Headed towards a Chinese food place and feasted. We went to the liquor store and tried to buy Bud Ice but they were fresh out, so I had to settle for 312. Drank a beer on the porch at Kyles and then went for a small sesh at the Hiawatha Bowl. Overall an awesome go skate day.

GSD from my POV

Woke up at six. It was like fucking christmas morning. Only I had no parents and I was hung over. Anyway I promptly spent the morning bidding on EBAY. Success. Called Nick Webers Dumb ass. He picked me up and we killed it. I decided i would film a GSD montage exclusively making fun of the berrics. Keep your eyes out for that one. Anyway Black Logan was at the park and asked me to fix his camera. I had no idea how to. But i was pleased to see him follow in my footsteps. Went to burger king, used some noss for part of the trip. When finished ordering the lady asked " will that be all" nick promptly yells "best beliiiiieeeedatttt." I'm pretty sure we received spit in our food. Nick dropped me off, beebzor and me pwned news for a few, and promptly went to the park. Once a the park we skated and filmed. I insisted on doing a rock to fakie with black logan in my arms. He was skeptical, so i said i would do it with a tire first. I fell but finally made it. I decided i shouldnt drop my black counterpart. We then went back to my house and PWNED more newbs, as I had to offload footage. Drank some beers, Went to TBELL and filmed that shit. Went to the park, killed it. Went back home, fell asleep on the couch for three hours, hit up the park again, and watched cody crash tyler's mo-ped.

All in all a great day.

gsd 2010

Woke up around 8am from a phonecall from Logan, "want to skate the park"? We hit it up for a bit, filmed some box tricks, and left cuz I had class, into to Religion. We talked about Christianity. Got the hell out of there, went home, ate, and went directly to the park. Skated for a good amount of time. The energy at the park was good, everybody was ripping. Someone mentioned street skating and Beebzor, Alic, Mia and I went to the foundation spot thing on 19th and Kagy. sort of fun. Logan would have joined us but he fell asleep at home. Drove back to the park and got some good turns in. After that, Fletch, Cody, Feastman and myself went to burger bobs for some beer, and a burger. Back to the park one last time for a little bit more.

All in all, I would chalk this one up to be a pretty good GSD. Good weather, good friends, good skating... what more could one ask for?

the 12 step H.A.K.A.S. program

1. wake up when you wake up.
2. consult the rolledex for what inside joke you will focus on today.
3. stroll down to the beautiful RMR on kagy and order a Nick Weber Eperience from either Logan, Fletcher, or Nick Weber himself.*
4. bullshit at the coffee shop, for no less then two and half hours.
5. play skate 3, or watch a video
6. pet spike
7. sharpen the punk nose or razor tail on your board so its easier to pop the tires of bmxer's with bad attitudes.**
8. go skate to the skatepark
9. make sure the am team is staying on point and not letting things get serious***
10. Heckle and Destroy.
11. Get a Bud Ice.****
12. PWN N00bZ FTW
