Nicki Minaj’s Brother
I showed this to Ed yesterday and he told me to post it up here. So everyone watch it, its hysterical.
Gold mine
Last week Tom was nice enough to go through his attic and hand over to me a shoebox full of old GHB tapes. These 33 tapes were recorded from about 2001-2004 and are a gold mine of old shit. Over 24 hours of lost footage from South Beach, road trips and everyone who is considered “old” now.
Highlights include:
- South Beach ramps during each phase: new, damaged, burnt and on the verge of total collapse.
- Alexis eating a bunch of shit.
- Alexis breaking his tooth at East Coast Terminal.
- Alexis searching for his broken tooth at East Coast Terminal while every continues to ride.
- Tom’s broken teeth.
- The JCC pool being drained and shredded.
- Ed Pollio breaking the law on several occasions
- Drunken Guy Verdarosa and his cactus.
- Canada road trip featuring a naked Sebass.
- The aftermath of Rob Darden being punched through a window in Ed’s van.
- An Ed Pollio edit.
- Various run ins with the law.
- and much much more…
Once I find a reliable way to get all of the footage off I’ll be posting bits and pieces onto the site, but I think the ultimate plan is to save the bulk of it for the GHB 2004 video that never was and possibly including it in the full length video that will be coming in the near future.
Alexis after breaking his face at East Coast Terminal
Alexis getting ass raped. And yes he told the cop that he was ass raping him.
Here’s the intro done by Tom to the video that never was.
Random iPhone photos
We have been slacking with the posts since thanksgiving gave us that sweet 4 day weekend, but now it’s time to get back on track and post some random bullshit that few people will find funny/interesting.
This is Tom’s ancient PowerBook G4 which is currently in pieces on my coffee table. I was in the process of changing the hard drive (That big thing on the lower left corner) until I realized that the one I was going to replace it with is SATA and not PATA. How silly.
This is Guy doing an impression of Alexis. Alexis says he bought a house somewhere in Jersey but it looks to me like he just rolled out of his cardboard box.
Fireplaces are sweet. This is from my uncles house during a delicious Thanksgiving day dinner.
This is a giant Darth Vader Pez dispenser that can be found on Mary’s windowsill right next to some Jesus statues.
Tom loves this shit. It tastes like a Jolly Rancher on steroids… that will get you drunk.
This is the view a Third Ave from one of the offices at my job. I don’t even have a window in my cubicle.
This is Brother’s pizza after a nice shred session. Staten Island has got some good pizza.
This is Ivan’s license plate.
This is Kane, the Australian who slept on my couch. He woke up not knowing where he was due to excessive alcohol consumption. He was kicked out of the bar because the bouncer said he was smoking crack in the bathroom.
This is the bar we were kicked out of because of our Australian crack head friend. Delicious German beer coupled with some sausage and sauerkraut. I love this place.
Ed Pollio doesn’t drink so he only goes to bars where he can play vintage video games. Ed is really good at beer tapper.
DONT TOUCH MY JUNK. Stay classy CNN.
Ed doesn’t even call Gelly this much.
Typical day at work. Lunch at Benjamins. Fucking delicious.
Kinda hard to see but his dread locks are pretty much touching the floor. Spotted on the Staten Island Ferry.
Don’t ever let Vin Formisano give you a haircut.
This was obviously not taken on my iPhone but it is still funny. I tell Ed to stop posting political bullshit unless it’s BMX related, so this is for him.
More old riding pictures
Here’s some more old riding pictures that I found.
This is what happens when you move to Jersey.
This was one of my favorite Lakewood setups. Then they started getting all X-Games pro steroids with their setups.
Gary Nilsson always shredded it. Footjam tooth at Lakewood.
Whip gap from Paino. Paino doesn’t come to this website so I can say anything I want, but he’s a good guy so all I’ll say is that I wish he still rode… and checked out the website.
Me in the ’99 X-Games Vert. I won silver this year… it was very disappointing.
Gary Nilsson, Mike Groff and someone else at Lakewood.
Took guy a while to grow this out, it’s a shame he shaved it all off.
This was my first ever fufanu on a sub box. Taken at Slayerville.
Paino whipping for subway. I think that rollerblader is thinking to himself “Man rollerblading is gay”
Augie with a footjam to fakie at the Hooters bank to ledge. This spot is sick.
This is before I got a job where I just sit on my ass all day. Notice the giant bulge.
This is one of 3 box lips the skatepark has seen. I’m not sure in which order they go, but the first one was way too mellow so the Parks Department actually replaced it with a quarter pipe minus the coping, then it got replaced again with the one shown above, then that got replaced before one of the contests with the one that’s falling apart now.
My friend Mike Finn attemping a whip after not riding for a year or so.
Abubica is such a funny name
Halloween weekend photos
Here’s a bunch of photos from my phone that I took over this eventful weekend. Friday was the Red Bull Jam and then the after party, Saturday’s photos are already up in another post but I threw up some from the partying afterwards and Sunday was more ramp building followed by a big bon fire and some shredding. Enjoy.
Here’s a blurry shot of the course with the hearse in the center. It was fucking freezing that night I don’t know how anyone even attempted to ride.
The best costume of the entire weekend. Dom Biro as a Four Loko, holding a Four Loko.
Tom always looks so pissed. I think it’s the Polish in him. I wonder what they’re looking at.
Sebass quit riding to keep and maintain an active book collection. Look at how little his eyes are.
The bar was packed as shit. This is only the downstairs section too. Before we got inside we had to wait on some line with a velvet rope like we were going into some highfalutin club.
The bar eventually got shut down because it was way over capacity. You can’t really tell from this photo but theres a cop at the end of the street blocking it off. Ivan parked on this block and was stuck cause of this.
Guy is an old man with a wife and kid and was very happy that the bar closed so that he could go home and get to bed.
These next photos are from Saturday night. We all headed out to Martini Red. Highlights include the slowest bartender in the world, lot’s of face paint, a mickey mouse costume Tom really liked and a guest appearance by Guy’s sister.
Mary went as a dead Mary.
This photos makes me want to shave.
Guy rubbed some black shit all over his face and smiled real big.
Tom and Guy were wearing the same shirt so Guy decided to do the same makeup as Tom. Homos.
Gary grew this wild mustache right at the bar! Incredbile!
Guys sister dressed up as Guy. That’s Gary’s hand poking her.
And finally the next few photos is from the Jam. I didn’t take too many pictures but Zack did film a bunch so there should be an edit soon.
This is the new quarter that’s after the new box. As usual there are 3 people working, 6 people watching and 1 person taking the photo.
Ed Pollio hard at work on his favorite new ramp.
Alex even took time out of burning things to screw some shit in. Here he is dressed up as his favorite drink, semen.
Here is the just about finished setup. There are only a few more things to be added to the main section. Lots of double layering to be done.
The fire went from 10am til 10pm. Here’s everyone taking a break from building.
All in all it was a great weekend. I ate a bunch of shit on the ramps and Ed Pollio yelled at a bunch of kids for not working to his standards.
