well to be honest,

I can't exactly keep updating this thing because I skate way too much. Not exactly a bad thing... So me and all the Fickle guys just got back from an amazingly fun skate trip to the beloved parks of Indiana, and I gotta tell ya, the Indy scene is pretty lucky to have so many fun parks in their state. First it was Bloomington, where any and all types of skating are welcome. That park has so many awesome lines and varied obstacles to get weird on... I love it. Then on to Greencastle and Major Taylor to finish up the day. A midnight sesh at M.T. was insane, everyone just unleashed all sorts of unused energy upon everything we could see in the twilight. These guys can pretty much do whatever they want, whenever.... I find it hard to comprehend from time to time, being a guy who has high hi's and very low low's. Oh well, they constantly keep me stoked.

Matt managed to hook us up with an unbelievable hotel where we all got our share of free soda, hot tubs, big screen t.v's and the always unfailing free breakfast bar. Mmmm eggs and salsa! However, all the eggs and beans we consumed didn't mix to well with having 13 dudes in 2 vans.... Complete blow out.

On to Ft. Wayne our gassy and unflappable crew fled where the highlight session of the trip went down. It was pretty insane, bodies flying everywhere in the giant bowl. Native came through with the most beautiful 360 flip I've ever witnessed, man that dude has got some steez. Josh showed us that he didn't exactly care what happened to his body by getting up on the steepest, tallest wall in the park and DESTROYING it. Weston's dreadlocks have taught him how to fly, I have come to believe that they have a mind of their own... Kinda scary. Afterwards it all fell apart in the parking lot, where "Total eclipse of the heart" was blasted and dancing was had. Full on, raging dance circle (jazz hands included) , basically we are the weirdest dudes out, and I think I'm ok with that...

All in all, we just had a great time. I mean that's all you can do with something as free as skateboarding with your friends. So I basically just wanted to say that the best thing you can do on your skateboard is not going out and killing yourself for photo's or video, it's having fun with your friends. Besides, no one really remembers who did what, but we all remember what a fun time we had together.

cant help it.....

So I think that this is turning into a music blog instead of skateboarding... I LOVE these guys, in their prime right here, always gets me real hyped to go skate.

20 years of schoolin and they put ya on the day shift...

Bob Dylan as a young man

A very influential artist to me for a long time now, I suggest giving "Highway 61 Revisited" a listen...

it's been awhile...........

I don't really do well with keeping up on stuff... maybe that's why all my pets died as a kid..... anyways I wanted to tell the like three people that actually read this thing that I really like this band, and chocolate,.... and baked goods..... CHOCOLATE BAKED GOODS!!! Anyways I will probably make another post in a few months or so.... Sorry

Psalm 13, a Psalm of David

O Lord, how long will you forget me? Forever?

How long will you look the other way?

How long must I struggle with anguish in my soul, with sorrow in my heart every day?

How long will my enemy have the upper hand?

Turn and answer me, O Lord my God!

Restore the sparkle to my eyes, or I will die.

Don't let them rejoice at my downfall.

But I trust in your unfailing love.

I will rejoice because you have rescued me.

I will sing to the the Lord because he is good to me.

somehow I'm related to these dudes......

And I do love their music!

you know who's real sick????????

The Matt's of skateboarding......... C'mon! Matt Rodriguez?!?! Matt Field?!? Matt Simpson?!?! Bahahaha ok the last Matt is kind of a joke, but we all love that guy..... And he rips pretty hard too. But seriously guys, Matt Rodriguez and Matt Field are two of the most influential skateboarders to me personally, many will disagree and completely disrespect these two undeniably creative individuals, but I will stand by opinion on this one.... Ok, go on youtube right after you're done lurking on this and check out some footage by them, get stoked, LOOSEN YOUR TRUCKS, and go shred........ ANYTHING, tranny, a wall, the sidewalk, or even the middle of the road (but be careful because people drive like they're on meth..... oh wait they are.) ok go skate!
Until next time........
