Blog Status July 19, 2008. slacking hard
I realize how much I am blowing it with this website right now and I think I might just make a different one someday soon so I can be hyped on it again. Today was epic, i didn't sleep all night and drove 2 hours to detroit at 3 am to drop off Jonathan Pierce at the airport. He stayed with me for a month and we definitely stacked, i'll have a throwaway clip soon. In the meantime, here's a clip i made of him after about 10 minutes of filming at grand haven.
here's jonathan doing a little nosegrind pop in action at a rustic EL spot.
expect more videos soon.
July 5, 2008. Been a little These past couple of weeks have been absolutely wild. Still up until at least 5 am every night if not later and still skateboarding daily. We've been stacking clips and even more than that we've been stacking good times. Everyone should dance more, it's the best. Also, I just went and saw Broken Social Scene tonight. Best thing I've ever seen. Here's a photo or two. John Kight, Kickflip in Howell. Photo: Wisda
June 28, 2008. on track Christopher Shields, Jonathan Pierce and myself are posted up at the house of Tyler franz because we have stayed up way too late for way too many days in a row. Chris and I decided we could make use of ourselves while lurking so here is a clip of Chris.
and this video below is Johan Stuckey showing you how to do kickflip front disasters, get it big daddy. Chris made it. Thanks for helping me feel useful, chris.

Thanks for the photo, sam.
June 17, 2008. Welcome! Jonathan Pierce and Justin Modica fly into Michigan today and will be staying here for a month, crushing chili dogs and skatespots. So hyped! On my way out the door to pick them up, I'll update with a couple flicks Evan McKendry took last night in Kentwood.
garrett doing what he does best, staying blunted. Tyler franz knows how to push through a grind, fs feeble
June 16, 2008. Photog shootout... 5 days Here we go, Evan M. vs. Nick W. both shooting subject Tyler franz getting work done in a downstate mission. Only a couple days until the video premiere and GSD events, everybody ready? wisda captured this wild crailslide thanks to john kight and his wax antics
June 7, 2008. Home... well, just home I just got back from a 5 day excursion into New York City and loved (almost) every minute of it. I didn't bother filming but met up with some homies, made some new ones and had an overall great experience. special thanks to dan zvereff for initially showing me around. I will be heading back up there soon with some friends, so wait to see the New York footage! Since I left and came back Jonathan Pierce was able to work his magic, or whatever you may call it, on this video clip. A young Ty Evans? I sense a hint of Spielberg. thanks jonathan.

April 28, 2008. windy and the wind blew in a few clips!!! and more to come very soon! first off, i gotta give credit where credit is due. andrew falberg has been filming with all of us and for we are nobody just as much or more than mike rowe and i(jackson casey) have been. He hasn't been given enough props because he really is a rad dude and a great filmer, so without further ado i bring you his part and a montage he filmed and edited!
