This guy walked into my office today, I had to post it. Keep in mind he was wearing leather gloves the whole time and had a CB radio in his car.

I swooped up Wes yesterday to drive out to the Zinfandel Ramp. This was my first time out there and I gotta say its a pretty cool spot. We got there around 6:30 and the sun was blaring in our eyes from the far deck. Once the sun went down at about 7:30 it was all good. This is a cool spot to just chill at. The ramp is made of metal (not revert friendly) but grinds well. There is a spine in the middle with a small roller on one side. There is also a metal elevator box next to the ramp, and a basketball court. Perfect spot for summer time BBQ’s.

 

 

I gotta say… I will put 48 hours in Seattle up against a week in Vegas all day. We raged big time, bad time Thursday through Saturday. I didn’t have much time to stop and take pictures but here is what I did manage to capture. Big thanks to everyone that took care of us while we were up there, Steve G and the whole GOODS crew, Manik Skateboards, HG Lodge.

First cold one @ Sacramento Intl.

 

I always get a good laugh out of the Sky Mall Magazine.

 

Round #2 on the plane

 

 

Getting hyped, ready to rage.

Mikey Burton and Corey Williams swooped us at the airport on their way into town from Portland.

Went to Adam Cons house to drop our stuff off, got greeted my Sancho and these two. After that we headed out to the HG Lodge to get our bearings for Friday night. We ended up raging hard until about 3am, after the bar we took a late night strike to 711 for Bomb Burritos, Doritos, Slurpies, and David got one of those hot toquito things when it caught his eye. Thanks for the hospitality Adam!

 

Woke up on Friday and headed out to Bellevue to skate the Plaza, stopped my Goods Eastside store first, dope store! We met up with Steve G, George, Keith and David, Sweets, and skated the indoor addition of the Plaze. Fun session courtesy of Taylor Swift and Ke$ha, haha.

 

Later on we went to the Manik Warehouse to skate their newly completed mini ramp and BBQ. Steve G was getting loose, really going for it. Front tooth shotgun!

Friday night was the jump off @ the HG Lodge. Chillin late night was dope, big thanks to Marcus for making that happen. Caught a few hours of sleep in the early AM, then woke up to grab some eats @ 6 Arms and goto GOODS. I picked up some gear and we headed back to Bellevue for the Sk8/BBQ, it was cold as shit and windy but the turnout was great, givaways from Cons, The Hundreds, HUF, Manik, and more. Marshal was on the mic getting people hyped as usual. After that went back to Adams to rest for a minute before going to the airport. We caught a ride with David, Keith and Scotty from The Hundres. Thanks for the lift!

Finally on the plane, our flight only had 30 passengers out of 100 seats.

Ready to pass out and finally get some rest!

And the best part of flying Southwest…

Next Thursday I head out to Seattle, WA for the 7th year anniversary of the Seattle native boutique GOODS, GOODS has also expanded to open another skate shop on the Eastside in Bellevue, WA. The party is at the Hunter Gatherer Lounge @ 722 E. Pike St (former War Room), skate/BBQ at the Bellevue plaza on Saturday. I attended the 5th year anniversary party co-hosted by Stussy and had a blast, they know how to party proper. I can’t wait to see what the HG has to offer.

I’ll be in the bay area this Saturday with Ben from PLA. We are going to the grand opening of Benny Gold’s first retail space in San Francisco. I look forward to seeing the build out and new product. The address is 3171 21st St. More information  HERE

Long story short, this kid got stabbed in the skull for cheating in a game of Counter-Strike. The only thing that stopped the blade was the opposite side of his skull.
