Back in May, I spent a lot of time making this Portlandesque cityscape installation out of cardboard and electrical tape. A little over 5 months later, it was time for it to come down. Check out this animation that myself and my good friend (HB staff photographer) Robb Perry created in a couple days. Enjoy.

I've been spending a lot of my time thinking of obstacles to jump, slide, and hurt myself on. Hopefully some of these pipe dreams will be made into reality in the near future. We made the mini funbox/curb/ledge this past weekend. Keep your eyes out for it in action in Scumdays 8.

2010-01-05T23:26:00.000-08:00

....since I uploaded some of my sketchbook. Here's some crud I drew while hanging out in Thompkins Square Park in NYC by myself last summer. My the mind has time to wander when you're all alone amidst a sea of strangers. Coincidently I met John Cardiel while drawing the *lycanthrope (*for non-nerds aka werewolf).

some more lurkage....

2009-11-30T13:24:00.001-08:00

Once again this has nothing to do with my art, but I came across this photo on the Fourstar Clothing website (www.fourstarclothing.com). So Garret and I are still lurking above Burnside in awe as Tony "TNT" Trujillo no complied tailslid revert on the big wall. If you could zoom in on my face you could see that I am about to poop my pants, because this trick is no joke. Just dropping in on this thing is sketchy, if you're not careful it will salad shoot you off the twinkie and leave you in shambles. He isn't in this picture, but John Cardiel was also lurking from the top deck with us, and told us tales of the infamous taildrop into the park in one of the most iconic Vans Off The Wall ads of the 90's, hands down one of the gnarliest tricks that has ever gone down at the park. If you don't know what I am talking about you better start doing some research and get your skate education on.

beastly lurkage

2009-11-20T15:19:00.000-08:00

This past summer, the Girl and Anti Hero skateboard teams came together for the second "Beauty and the Beast Tour." Just like last year all the guys came through Portland on their demo tour. This year the venue was Glenhaven skatepark. The pros had to compete with hungry locals that wouldn't let the teams skate, and those who came to see the wizardry of Eric Koston, Rick McCrank, Tony Trujillo, Julien Stranger, Mike Carroll, and many more were left with a sense of being robbed. It's not to say that nobody skated, amongst the guys who dodged his way through local kids doing early grabs was Chris Pfanner. This dude has got some of the craziest pop that I have ever seen live. He popped an 8ft high (or higher) frontside 360 off of the hip, and my friends and I were lucky enough to be in the frame.

(screen shot from the fall Anti Hero catalog, check it out at http://www.dlxsf.com)

So after the Glenhaven demo I couldn't help to feel a little cheated, because I didn't get to see both teams skate to their full potential. On a happy note I ended up getting John Cardiel to sign a board of mine for the second time. I randomly met him at Tompkins Square Park in the East Village of NYC this past July and had gotten him to sign my Cardiel Eagle board and gave him a HB shirt. It was a damp drizzly day, so the autographed faded away long before my flight back to Portland. Crestfallen that my signature had faded, I was determined to get him to sign it again and lugged two separate set ups to the demo. John arrived a little later than the rest of the team, he decided to ride his fixed gear from Windells Camp at the base of Mt. Hood to the demo. Needless to say that is a pretty gnarly bike ride especially on a fixie. John remembered me from my travels and had no problem "double juicing" my board as he put it. Thanks John. Back to my story, so the day after the demo I was driving in to my studio and spotted a couple of white 16 passenger vans at Burnside skatepark. I rushed to the shop, phoned up my buddy Garret and armed myself with some beers and skated down under the bridge for the "real" demo. Needless to say all the guys were killing it, some of my personal favorites were; Robbie Russo, Tom Remillard, Vincent Alvarez, Rick McCrank, Peabody, and of course TNT, Tony Trujillo #1 Park Shark. We were lucky to witness some incredible skateboarding that day, as documented by Gabe Morford in the newest Anti Hero ad. As you can see I am once again lurking from a prime lurk zone. There is a video of the tour coming out soon, so keep your eyes out for my friends and I lurking in peculiar places in the background.

2009-11-06T07:27:00.000-08:00

So I spent a lot of time and effort drawing a mural for the hall of horrors. All in all I clocked in about 20+ hours behind the pen, and ended up with symptoms of carpel tunnel syndrome. In the end all the hard work was well worth it, and could of never been done without the help of friends. Thanks to Caitlin McCall, Rachel Wright, and Robb Perry for contributing to the mural. I would also like to thank everyone else who helped out with the hall of horrors; Seth Beckman for making props and the diet jungle juice, Jacob Schmitt for providing the original musical score, Carin Berg for coming up big with some big time props, Justin Lauer for doing lighting and effects and last but not least everyone who came out dressed up to check out the Hall of Horrors, it could of never happened without any of you. We are looking forward to next year, it may seem like a while but it'll be around sooner than you know it.

so I really don't hate rollerbladers, but I've been running low on material, so I had to dig into my archives. All I found was this photocopied version of a comic that I drew 3-4 years ago. This comic accompanied some toys that I made under the same name, I'll try to scour pictures of the toys for your enjoyment.
