Here’s a Shields session edit staring Vinny Crispino, myself and a guest appearance by Anthony Villani.

Filming ended abruptly when Vin decided to pull a Gary Nilsson and eat shit at the end of the edit. Get well soon Vin.

Buy some shit to help Vin get better.

2012 Ohio Trip Photos

So we drove out to Rays last night and it took us 12 Hours to get there.

Some on the trip are saying its because I was lazy, and had Tyrone Williams drive most of the way.

He was seen driving 40 MPH in a 60 MPH zone.

We got in and slept from 9am to 1130 am. and headed to Rays.

We meet with Hollywood and other NYC natives Dave Hall and Brian Burnhart.

After the Rays session we went for a private session at Chenga 57 courtesy of Cole.

Here are some photos of the crew.

Here is a video of me asking NYC Parks Commissioner Adrian Benepe a question about the Benjamin Soto skate park on August 9th, 2011 at the Museum of New York City.  More about the meeting here.

I guess he didn’t see this video.

This was a good jam. I helped build the ramps with some of the Staten Dudes. It was a good time.

I love little Mikes clips.

Back to the Beach with NYC Parks Dept Characters

Posted by on May 27, 2011 in Events, Featured, News, Politrikkks | 0 comments

Life seems to be like smoke and mirrors sometimes.  Its all a show that eventually ends. It may not be a good one but its something to watch. I am glad I am here right now to see it. Back to the beach was on Wednesday May 25th, 2011.

We decided, we being  the Friends of the skate park would go to this event where the NYC Parks Dept Characters come to the beach and cut a yellow ribbon to mark the opening of the beach to the public. But you are not allowed to swim in the water until Saturday May 28th. Why they would have a back to the beach on a Wednesday and not open the beach on the day they cut the ribbon? Its called smoke and mirrors.

So we showed up all wearing shirts that say Where is OUR skate park?

where is OUR skate park

So of coarse we printed extra to give out as you see here almost the whole crowd had one on.

the people

It is also said that one of the Parks Dept staff even took a shirt, maybe because he or she feel that they should have not have demolished it.

Parks Dept

Yes your kids are in these peoples hands.

What a day to ride but no place to go.

What a nice day to go to the skate park if Staten Island had one.
