Went to class, had a job interview, then sat at home eating corn chips and watching the History channel. I was pretty bored today due to the rain, so, naturally, YouTube was my savior. Here is a trailer from my buddy Travis Bradford in Missoula. I get way more stoked on local videos than I do professional ones. Also, I am pleased with the way filming has been going for Kream Up V.2. I want to get a small crew together for a filming trip to Missoula this summer. There are a few tricks that I messed around with in highschool that I got close to but never quite made, and I would like to get them over with. Lets plan soon.

Rasta skateboard super hero

So I after watching this video I had to go back and re-watch it because I found myself just watching his huge mop flap around during each trick and thought to myself about how difficult it would be to ride and do drops. Its reminds me of a cape, Adelmo Jr. is like a rasta skateboard superhero. with his dreadlock cap he fights crime. Then I had to watch it again so I could understand what the tricks actually were.

Summer is here.........

In my absence this weekend Logan, Nick, Brian, and FEASTMAN filmed and stacked some major footy. The project is coming along well for it being the first week of our HAKAS. Which got me to thinking we need to start filming ridiculous things outside of filming skateboarding. Such as the widowed Guggemos skit and Diekman mannueling halfway across the world. I think a few random shots of Nick drinking milkshakes. Besides traveling to parks and skateboarding debauchery must be doccumented this summer.

Really what it gets down to it the summer experience can be summed up by any DJ Khaled song or whatever he does. We just need to win since skateboarding is a sport. A very competitive sport with infinitesimal rivalries and feuds right?

Its going to be a KA summer.

Yes

well

Today I graduated from Montana State University. I still have 6 credits over the summer, but I pretty much sealed the deal as far as getting a diploma goes. It seems like yesterday that Aven and I are filming at the Osprey Stadium in Missoula for "Milltown DAMN!!!!!", and I am writing funny stuff that happens as senior year of highschool flies by. But as I look back now, these last four years have been the best of my entire life. Freshman year I step foot inside my dorm room to find that the person I will be living with is named Scuba. I could not have asked for a better roomate. Playing HALO on the campus server was more fun than I could have ever imagined, and working the front desk of Langford from 4-8 AM tuesday and thursday sucked. Sophmore year was amazing for many reasons. I was able to travel to Las Vegas with the fourskin crew. I am so thankful to have been a part of this trip... drinking and experiencing Vegas to it's fullest potential while 19 years old is an amazing thing. Also, the ButterKreamaz came into existence. I still remember going to Wal-Mart and picking out our Kreamer Bandanas, and assigning team numbers to everyone. My first summer in Bozeman rolled around, and it was the best summer of my life. I had an awesome girl in Missoula, a job at the coffee shop with all of my best friends as co-workers, and plenty of skating and porch-beer drinking. That fall I went to Europe. The best decision I have ever made in my entire life, hands down. I experienced people and places that I could never have imagined. There were so many times when I would think to myself... "I can't believe I am here right now". I finished up my junior year with plenty of skating and photography projects. Summer rolled around again and I went on one of the funnest trips to Helena, that will forever be known as the "Hot Keystone Ice Tour". I traveled around the state and headed north to B.C. with Scuba and Darren. Senior year showed up, and I worked my ass off on the Google Maps and the Small Town Skateparks projects, and the Saints won the Super Bowl.

I guess what I am trying to say is that college brought me into contact with some of the best people in the entire world. The friends I have made in college are some of the best I have ever had. I am so proud to call myself a ButterKreamer, or a graduate of Montana State University for that matter.

During my graduation ceremony today, the speaker said something to the extent of... "there are many different paths that you can take in life. Some are good, and some are bad." As far as I am concerned, the path that led me to Bozeman was the best one of all.

Thanks to all the people that I have befriended these past four years... you are the best friends I could have ever asked for. Thank you for the best times of my life.

Kream Mag #1

Here is the link to download KREAM Magazine issue #1. I am not sure if the mag will be single pages or a spread? Anyway, I hope everyone likes this thing. I am glad that we have a video and two magazines to document this amazing trip we went on. This trip was, for me, a sort of skate-trip-to-end-all-skate-trips. When I am an old man, I will look back on these times so fondly. And the good times just keep on coming. Anyway, here is our magazine.
