Summah Time!

So Simon decided to call me up on my challenge of doing a back disaster on the 7 foot extension at the park. Mind you, I asked him to try this a few months ago and he said he would go for it once he learned them. Well, that time has come. He called me up and said I want to shoot the back D on the 7 footer. I agreed, and met him at the park. But never-the-less, he came to show me how a man skates. He pulled about 25 back disasters in a row. He only did them this many times because it was starting to rain, and he knows my gear isn't waterproof. So, this one is posted with my tail between my legs, and also a big thumbs up to Simon. You're gnarly dude!

London Update

Been in London for a few days. Good times with AJ and some homies. We went to the Kiwanis plaza today and I was able to meet this kid named Jamie. He has the sickest style, and a sick bag of tricks. He killed the rail with a perfect back smith first try, then went for this back tail which took a matter of minutes to get.



Then Fellner was being loose and backed him up with this kickflip....

Back Smith

Simon is gnarly. Straight up.





Mind my shadow. I suck as a photographer when it comes to that...

Golden Days

Spring has arrived a bit early! I am excited to say that we have been the lucky recipients of 15-20 degree weather, no wind, and beautiful blue skies. I decided to take the camera gear to the park, and miss out on some seriously needed sleep. Skated with a bunch of people, and a bunch of little kids who kept getting in the way. Once I had my fun, it was time to get down to business. Here are some shots from today!


Rivard gettin warmed up at the spot


Tyler Woodhouse is the most crazy dude ever. He will do anything you tell him to. Huge Boneless Transfer on an old school shred stick!


Rivard gettin techy on the flat bar


Rivard ended the session with this Switch Blunt stall on the roughest skateable object known to man

Barn Yard Animals

This winter is much more bearable this time around, and is for one good reason. Our friend Phil is in the works of building Niagara Falls' first indoor park. It is still in the building plans, and should be ready for next winter. In the meantime, Phil has allowed a few close friends to keep themselves occupied by skating what is available. Today, Dyllan and Cory came along and since I'm injured, I decided to shoot a couple photos to show the park, and to practice my photo skills. Try some new things. It was definitely a fun session, besides the -12 tempurtures outside, making it -10 inside, and when you are a photographer, you aren't moving around too much, so you tend to sit and freeze. I thought it was well worth it though. Here are some shots from tonight.

Hate Sequences....

So this winter I'm trying to figure out the limits that my gear can take. This shot of Trevor was shot a few days ago at our indoor barn. I am using flash, which I haven't done before, and for some strange reason, I feel I won't be doing again. WAAYY too much of a pain in the ass. Anyways, it's an update, which I know have been lacking. Sorry. Been busy. I have no plans of updating it too much this winter since work is taking up most of my time, and not too many photo ops are available.
