First nice day in forever.

These Molson Goldens taste extra good after getting to skate for the first time in a while. Peep my friends blog http://www.scrumplife.com/ It's fuckin sick. Also, I'm listening DARKBUSTER and just wanted to say this band rules.

Jay Brown shredding and Ben Cironi getting the clip.

Blair Kemp killin it!!!

Awesome pictures.

Check it out. This is my new electric razor. It was $10 at Burlington Coat Factory and as you can see above it is comprised of 15 mini razor blades that spin at a high velocity. It sounds like a vacuum when you turn it on. It shaves worse than my 5 year old Norelco that I have never changed the blades on. Basically, it's awesome.

These people we're fighting in the rain yesterday.

This is the toilet at Ruski's and the lid is mysteriously secured with Duct Tape.

Toebee Parkhurst.

Toebee brings it back to the essence with a Feeble Grind on this crazy spot in Gardiner, ME.

Saturday 5.14.11

Got up late and skated flatground on that walking path down on Marginal Way. Tough solo sesh. Fuckin ate it so many times but it was all good. Did the twenties and headed downtown to drink beers and hangout.

This is at my friend Chad's loft on Silver Street in Portland. His place is so fuckin sick. Chad's crib is stylin and I'm gonna be rocking a place like that one day! Anyway, some arm wrasslin went down as well as a bunch of beers. Fun times.

Old school Maine shredda Sean hamlin was in attendance.

Jeremy Ward and Geoff Bogle we're kickin' it too.

Then Geoff and I bounced down to Amigo's. This is Geoff, Eric Frenz and Max Fenwick. While we we're at this bar I ended up doling out relationship counseling. My relationship counseling was basically asking Amy (the distrought girl), "Is this the guy?" then walking over to her boyfriend and saying, "You see that girl over there? She really likes you. She loves you. Don't fuck it up. You got a good thing going with her." Haha. I re-united the miserable pair and they went home happy. They shoulda bought me a fuckin beer for that.

Blogger is fucking up. This post seemed to disappear off my page so here it is again.

Alex Winslow, Jay Brown and Ben Cironi.

Jordan Pride nose bonking this crazy spot.

Skate.

This is Mont 5050ing a rail in Portland last Sunday. This spot is ridiculous. I tied the rail to the wall with a plastic Hannaford bag so it wouldn't move - a year ago! And it still held up. The hill is steep and the rail is sketchy. Mont prevailed though!

Skated with Geoff Bogle and Jay Brown last night. This is Geoff pre-shredding.

Jay Brown spends some time behind his 7D between landing really hard tricks.

Sunday, May 8. Part B.

After skating the courthouse for a bit we ended up down at the Commercial street metal benches. People that work at the building next to these benches get really bummed on people skating them because they claim that each bench cost $5000! You gotta be fuckin kidding me! $5000! They gotta be pretty well made though because we have skated the shit out of them over the years and they still look brand new.

Rolling deep! Fun times with a great crew.

Dan Williams was doing some super buttery back nosegrinds.

Mont charging a tailslide.

Mukasa Nosegrind Shuv. He also switch back smithed a waist high ledge later in the day. It was one of the best tricks I have ever personally witnessed go down.

Pete cruising through a switch tail. Look how casual he looks while doing it! Super stylin!

Sunday, May 8. Part A.

Yesterday was fucking sick! A carload of my friends from MA came up to skate and hangout in Portland and together with some Portland heads we had a great day of skating in town.

I met up with the fellas at the skate park and took this picture of Mukasa 5050ing the handrail on our way out to skate some spots.

Pete was shredding.

Mukasa with a kickflip fakie.

I got more pictures I'll post later, too.

Friday, May 6

I got out of work today and went straight out skating with jay Brown and Ben Cironi. The weather was so good and everybody was stoked to skate. We hit up a couple spots and then ended up at the bank on Marginal Way.

This is Jay and Ben kickin it. I love how this spot is lit up at night. The cars cruising by in the background are sick too.

Cironi shredding some flatground.

Jay peeping some footage.

Wednesday, May 4

Went to a screening for local film makers at the Nickelodean on Wednesday and it was pretty rad. Definitely a lot of really talented people around here. There was a pretty good crowd and everybody was really supportive of eachothers work.

This is outside the theatre after grabbing some beers at Rosie's. That's Geoff, McKenna and Dria. Jay Brown's dad is in the background. On the left at the snack bar. He has a serious fucking handshake. I felt like I was shaking hands with the Terminator.

Lounging.

Perspectives from Jay Brown on Vimeo.

This is the video my friend Jay Brown made that was in the screening.

Sunday, May 1st.

Headed up to Augusta, ME on Sunday with Sam McKenna and Garrett Brooks. It was the nicest day outside and we got going around 12:30. We skated a couple fun and unique spots around Augusta and then met up with Toebee Parkhurst who had just finished running a road race but still came out and skated despite already running for three miles.

Here is Toebee and Garret skating around in the parking lot of the Maine Bureau of Alcohol.

Toebee Back Smithed this flat rail.

and Back Tailed it, too!

Then we headed into Gardiner and I was surprised to find they actually have a downtown area. Who knew?

Here are the fellas chillin in another parking lot.

McKenna adjusting his flash.

CHARGE!!!!

Toebee skated this spot. It was gnarly, especially with the plow at the bottom.

Sick river photo.

And another.

This is me gettin wicked ahhhtttsssyyyy brotha.

Fuck yeah. Sweet window and shiny tree photo.

Saturday, April 30th.

I headed down to Lowell, MA on Saturday to skate with Tony Le and Vito and it was pretty sick. We skated in some abandoned warehouse, then headed into downtown Lowell and skated city hall. Then Tony gave us the heads up on an amazing Vietnamese sub shop. I never had a Vietnamese sub before and it was amazing. So amazing, that I'm writing about a sandwich in my blog. After that we headed up to Nashua, NH, swung in EB, skated downtown Nashua and then hit up some amazing DIY concrete spots and skated with Butters, James and a sick crew of shredders. It was a super fun day.

Out of all the amazing places we skated and hung out at, the only photo I took this day was this:

Haha, I unfortunately had left my camera in my car.

This is a picture of a Vietnamese sub I found online. Pretty much what we had in Lowell. The sandwich was only $3.50. The sub shop also had Ja Rule playing on a stereo. So awesome.
