Posted in Dinosaur Jr is the greatest band ever, Me Me Me, Music News on June 19th, 2009 by corpo

Hyped beyond beliefWords cannot describe my excitement that the preorder of Farm showed up 4 days before release date. Every other preorder I have done has resulted in pain and frustration. I should know better with Dinosaur Jr though. FARM IS HERE! I am currently on my first listen with the biggest, goofiest grin on my face ever.

skate journal: flatground and more with ollie (June 18)

Posted in Skate Journal on June 19th, 2009 by corpo

After a chill day of working from home I skated flat in front of the house.  It took quite awihle to get going, but it ended up being a pretty good little session.  I got another casper flip in about 5 tries.  Whoa!  Thanks Dan!  I tried a run for awhile of halfcab flip, 360 flip, heelflip.  Never got it.  Only got to the heelflip twice and bailed them.  Doh.  After awhile I slowed down and worked on f/s nollie bigflips (never got close), switch varial flips (never committed) and b/s halfcab heels which I landed for the first time in months, maybe even years.Ollie rolled out with is board after that and we hit the school.  He was ripping.  Ollied up the curb a bunch of times, manuals and his patented front nose the lower part of the rail.  I messed around on the curb trying differnt stalls and whatever.  I got a b/s hurricane fakie front shove out and tried a few front 5-0 kickflips out.  Never came close to that one.After dinner it was raining so Ollie and I couldn’t play ball so we skated Rampy.  I sucked bad, was too tired.  Got a front lipslide which was about the only decent trick.  Ollie was ripping.  Lots of scratch grinds and fakie ollies.  Radness!
