New Plan B promo

Posted in Amazing skate clips on November 3rd, 2008 by corpo

Danny Way’s stuff is beyond incredible.  And I’m normally a snowboard jump hater.  360 flip manual seriously?  Putting Wenning right after Way is a bit odd and boring.  Oh well.  For the most part this promo is sick.  Sheckler has some big stuff, but it’s not enough to shut me up.  There is a better quality clip on the Plan B site.

skate journal: campus with Nate. Slappies! (Nov 2)

Posted in Skate Journal on November 3rd, 2008 by corpo

Met Nate up on the hill for a late evening campus session.  Another nice night in the upper 40s.  We rolled by a few spots before we ended up and some tiny yellow curbs that were perfect for slappies.  We had a blast trying some weird variations and lines.  I tried a few slappy crooks but never got one.  There were so many leaves on the ground in spots.  We were cruising down a sidewalk and at times you couldn’t tell where the sidewalk was versus the grass.  It was dope.  We hit all kinds of fun little spots before ending the session a couple hours later.  Another fun night.

skate journal: northside with trick factory (Nov 1)

Posted in Skate Journal on November 3rd, 2008 by corpo

Brian, Neil, Travis, Simpson, Fuzz, Lazer, Gordon and I at Northside in Ft Collins once again.  We warmed up at the taco thing in Loveland for a bit before getting the boot.  I had been trying front shove wallrides, but not really.  I took forever to warmup up at Northside and was rather embarresed since everyone else was killing it.  I eventually started having fun.  I tried to carve frontside on the brick bank and boardslide the inside of the bench, but couldn’t get my weight right.  I got a few axle stalls on the mellow part of the jersey barrier then started trying a run.  Wallie into the north shallow bowl thing, axle stall on the mellow jersey barrier then back 50 the east wall quarterpipe.  Pretty fun.  I closed the day be getting pink slipped by Fuzz in SKATE.  Although I did land the worst 360 and fakie 360 flips ever done.
