More random riding photos

This is Sunil and Sebass lookin’ like a couple of homos in front of Slayerville skatepark

I had a real big picture of this on my computer but I accidentally deleted it. Alexis (the photographer of said photo) also had the original but I deleted his shit by accident too.

 

This is me chillin with Platinum at the trails before her rapid weight loss. Platinum is a marijuana eating weimaraner owned by… you guessed it, Alexis.

This is a photo of my friend Marty back when I was a camper at Woodward in 2005. I always tell people who haven’t gone to Woodward as a camper that the fun is 70% the people you meet and 30% riding. I have met some of the craziest people at Woodward and am lucky to have been able to go.

This is an old ass photo of me doing what looks like is an irish jig mid-air but is actually a downside whip. I tried to go as high as I could on this one and immediately ate shit upon my attempted landing. The fall resulted in me fucking up my hand and not being able to ride for quite some time… something that is becoming more and more frequent. I really love riding but sometimes I wish I didn’t fall so much. This photo was taken by Ben Hittle.

Here’s P.S. 6 local Joe Stazzone doing some kind of skateboard stunt. I’m clueless when it comes to skateboarding but it boggles my mind how people can maneuver a plank of wood so well using only their feet.

Tom Espo took this photo of me at our beloved but now pile of shit skatepark. This photo is the reason I don’t grow my hair out any longer. Perhaps I should have looked in the mirror a little more often.

Another shot at what used to be a good skatepark of Spam, Paino and I. Alexis took this photo.

This is my buddy Dennis Dombrow. I met him at Woodward through my friend Kevin Tierney way back in 2002-2003. Dennis is one of the funniest people I have ever met. He moved from Chicago to Texas and lived with Aaron Ross and Chase Hawk. You can watch him slicing fruit with a samari sword at said house in a somewhat recent Props interview. One time at camp he was wrestling our counselor and nearly snapped his neck. Dennis can now be found fighting people in cages as a professional MMA fighter. You can follow Dennis on twitter @d_liciousD.

This sums up Augie pretty well, wild as fuck. Augie is an extremely talented BMX rider and one hell of a dude. Little known fact: Augie is actually Italian and not Mexican.

This place was heaven on earth for me. These are the legendary South Beach ramps. So much shit has gone down here, so many memories, so many friends and so many good times. I spent every minute I could riding and hanging out at these ramps. I wish I could go back and do it all over again.
