Saturday 8.27.11

This was the first spot we went to. Matt Seavey dropped in on it without any warm up. I think the most warmup he did was smoking a few Marlboro Mediums.
This thing is ridiculous.

DAMN!

I've seen this tag around town and I always wanted to get a photo of it. I was stoked on it because a) it's a fuckin ridiculous tag and b) it can be read two ways. "Bogus Lives" - as in, our "lives are bogus" OR "Bogus Lives" as in there is a dude named "Bogus" and he "Lives". I prefer the second meaning.

Anybody???

Dave Labbe Noseslid this ledge. It isn't visible from this angle but you have to gap out to the ledge.

Dave nosebonked this thing. I also saw a girl do a wheelie UP Mellen Street. That was incredible as well.

Another angle of the nosebonk.

Reckless Tyler.

Reckless Tyler back 5050ing in the dangerzone. You have to hit this ledge at a 90 degree angle from the sidewalk and it drops 15 feet over the other side of the fence. Backside 5050 is the sketchiest trick to do on this thing. He back fived it, too.

Post 5050 celebration.

Wu-Tang is for the Children.

One of my best friends got married this weekend and it was an amazing time. Congratulations to Geoff and Siobhan Bogle! I'm used to a very fast paced lifestyle and this weekend was non-stop partying and kicking it with all my best friends from back in the day. It was one of the greatest weekends I have ever had. From when I got out of work early at 5pm on Friday until 9:30am on Sunday it was a rollercoaster ride.

After the wedding rehersal and the fellas putting a Shipyard keg to bed we headed back to our hotel room. We were originally supposed to be in a large suite that would comfortably fit 7 dudes but Hampton Inn fucked it up and we ended up in a one bedroom room, haha. We checked in at 12am with cases of beer in tow and immediately the hotel staff was tripping and threatening to call the cops as we walked in. It was fucking ridiculous. It didn't help that when we walked in the room one of the fellas had already bricked it with smoke. And I'm not talking cigarette smoke.
This is Sean, Bill and Phil kicking it on the couch.

Phil and Geoff.

Pete, Jessie and Jward. Pete is Geoffs dad and he held it down like a champ. I don't know how old he is but he was raging like he was 20 years old and cracking jokes left and right. He put a nice dent in the keg and was generally just a rad dude. I think these photos are making this room look way bigger than it was.

Bedtime. Sean set up shop in the kitchen/entryway. He had the illest air mattress but the crappiest blanket and froze his ass off all night.

Bill scored the foldout.

Geoff, Phil and Jward.

Jward looked like a bigass LiteBrite doll. I don't have a picture of it but I posted out under a fucking desk. As crammed as it was, and as bad as it smelled with six dudes farting all night it was super fun camping out with the homies like we we're in middle school.

The wedding cake was epic. It had running water and shit. Siobhan's dad made it and what a great fucking job he did. Seriously, have you ever see a cake like that?

I don't have any pictures of the actual wedding because I was one of the groomsmen and our primary responsibility was to look handsome while standing next to Geoff and not to take photos. This is during dinner as Phil was giving his speech. JWard also gave a speech and ended it with "And, I would also like to add that, Wu-Tang is for the children." He eased it in at the end of the speech so well and sounded so serious that none of the older folk even questioned the claim. It was awesome. They were like, "Yes, Wu-Tang must be for the children."

This is during the photo session for the groomsmen aka Team Handsome. We were very sharped dressed men. Here is Geoff and Sean.

Bill kicking it.

Phil and Zach.

Sean and JWard.

JWard demonstrating proper Planking form.

After the photos we hungout with the bridesmaids before being introduced to the crowd. We were to walk into a big hall in front of all the wedding guests and be introduced. Literally, 10 seconds before we were to wok-inn, in front of the entire crowd Sean got beer spilled all over his suit. It was one of the funniest moments of the weekend. The timing was impeccable and it is really only something that would happen to Sean. So ridiculous.

Here is the lovely couple as they wok-inn.

Cutting of thine cake.

Siobhan introduced Geoffs face to the cake.

Geoff kicking it latenight.

We headed back to the hotel around 12 (I think) and I remember there was a bus transporting people from the wedding to the hotel. I was kicking it out front when one of the buses pulled up and the driver opened the door to let people out and a fucking PBR can fell spilled out. I was super stoked on that. I guess we'll end the story there. With PBR cans spilling out of buses.

Segway.

Spotted these bad motherfuckers.
