Summer 2011

It's been a while since my last post.  My apologies to all. I've been nursing a hipper I got at the venice bowl for a few a month now and not wanting to look at skate photos because I get pissed I can't skate. I'll be back out there soon though. Here are few selections from my travels from the summer and some from Venice as well.
Keep on Shredding!

More Mammoth!!

I spent the last week up in Mammoth with Maribeth and Kramer again.  Messed my back up for a few days and was down. Kind of shitty but still had a great time on snow for three solid days. Kramer, MB, and I had this sick day just free riding the MT.  We hit every park on the mountain basically and did a bunch of top to bottoms.  Getting some work done down in L.A. the next couple of weeks then hopefully more Mammoth and a potential trip to S Colorado for some back country mayhem.
Enjoy and Shred like your life depends on it, it just might!

Rural Jibbing!!

Finally got to mammoth after being trapped in the east coast for the holidays. I've been hanging with my old Friend Jeff Kramer and his wife Mary Beth.  MB hit one of the heaviest jibs I've ever seen a woman hit.....correct that...I've ever seen anyone hit!  Threading one hell of a crazy needle. After that we went to these containers that just sitting in this feild.  Going back tomorrow for the really session. Check back for those! Had to through one of Biggy Smalls in there too.
Till then,

Shred on!

Venice Pro Am.

Last saturday was the first ever Venice Pro Am comp.  Here are a view shots of Hayden, Archer, Charlie, Morgan, Mighty, and Carson.

Venice 1 year Anniversary.

This past weekend was the one year anniversary of the Venice Skate Park!  Check out some of the shoots I got.  The vibe was crazy and everyone was skating hard.  I saw some nasty head on coalitions in the bowl and some crazy trickery being thrown down.  There's Lance, Bennet, Omar, Tuma, and some older guys and young guys going crazy!

Skatelab with Keely last week.

Headed out to Skate Lab in Simi last week with Adam Keely.  Meet up with Cody Margott and got these shots of those guys. Nice skating guys!!

 

O.C. Friday Surf Session

Headed down to O.C. at the end of last week to get some shots.  While everyone else was down at Trestles for the Hurley Pro, I wanted to see how the Wedge and Salt Creek were shaping up.   I think I hit the swell one day early but still came away with some quality stuff. There are some spongers getting crazy at the wedge, plus some artsy pictures of that beast of a wave.  Then some of the rippers at Salt Creek.

Actually, from the reports I think Montauk is the place to be right now. Plus sets are running at 10 feet plus and the wind is good. So if your in NYC, I hope you made it out for acouple of fun ones.

Until next time, Shred everyday as if it's your last. -T
