Spot Hunting!

Since nobody around my neighborhood really skate anymore and I don't realla have a way anyways else, my best hopes right now would be to promote spots to bring skaters over here! I've lived at the spot for about 7 years and as I grew and got older, The stairs ans rail get smaller. The run up is decent and it is definatly skateable (stairs/rail). My biggest concern would be having to nail the trick or as many tricks down as possible, security would be pretty tight.

New Game Face!

Today, I picked myself up a new Nikon D70! I have been wanting to upgrade from my D3000 for some time now and what better way to do so with a Nikon D70, 28-80mm and a Sunpak flash for the price of only 350$! The best part about this upgrade is that I can finally start shooting with wireless flashes, something that I couldn't do with My D3000. I'm expecting some quick photo's to come soon before snowfall. Photo's to come soon!

Ollies with... Jordan Hatzinger?

Just when we thought the skateboarding season was coming to an end, we found time to squeeze in one more session. But wait? With Jordan Hatzinger! With nothing but hockey and moving to toronto on his mind, Jordan decided he was up for another photoday. he has still proven himself to ollie off drops, and over high obstacles, when he hasn't skated in a few months. Take a look!

..and garbage bin ollie.

Rainy Days

It figures that the day I finally get to go shoot some new photo's, it starts to rain out. But that didn't stop us. We decided to go to the closest spot we could think of, and get right down to buisness before mother nature had her way with us.

Justin starts things off with an ollie...


...and finishes it off with an indy grab.

The Past

So, since I havn't got the chance to go out and get any new photo's lately, I thought I would upload some old pictures that I have taken over the past few years.

Not Too Exciting..

Well, summer has almost come to an end, and it hasn't been too exciting. I didn't get as many photo's as I was hoping to this summer, but I am going to try to jam pack everything before winter has it's turn. I should have a few more posts this summer but for now, this is all your going to get. Cheers.

RED STAR DEMO!

Today the Red Star team had a Demo at The Ward Skatepark. It's been a while since the ward has brought any pro's, but today we has skaters such as Paul Trep, Paul Machnau, Chad Dixon, and Grant Paterson who is now pro. These photo's pretty much sum up a dope day.
