Ice Death Box...


This is my friend Nate, he owns a 1964 Corvair Greenbrier , that at one point looked like the photo but now Its basically a lunch box on wheels. About 2 miles into our trip up to The Derby he tells me the brakes are going out.

3 pump chump...


They work fine you just have to pump them a 3 or 4 times..

Looks like your running low...


Hmmm no brake fluid.
I love the empty can of beer rolling around on the floorboard.

So that's where it went...


Once we finally made it up to The Derby we pulled into the gas station and discovered this.
Brake line busted.

All I know was after filming a contest all day, all I could think of was.

Scott Stanton 1988


This is probably one of the first skate photos I've ever shot.
The vert scene in Pensacola was huge in the mid 80's and Scott Stanton was our home town Hero.

Diggin in the crates...


So I've decided to dig up some old photos for everyone in the world to enjoy. So Enjoy!
This was our local skatepark in Pensacola, Florida. Markovich and I would skate this thing pretty much everyday, and as you
can see we had the place to ourselves.
