Time to go...

We tried all day and ended up with a game of skate and kick ball.

Pretty much...

Sums up our day.
Actually I take that back, it was good hanging out with everyone.

Mod VS Rockers Camping trip...

Tommy warms his tire up for the burn out contest.
Winner gets to buy a new rear tire.
I think I might of won this one, along with almost running some poor guy down in the process.

Slow Race...

Along with the Tug-O-War they do the Annual Slow race.
Slowest bike wins.

Twist and Go...

Mod VS Rockers Annual Tug-O-War

I thought Pythons belonged in a zoo?

I guess every year the Mods have won the Tug-O-War, that is until
Big Bad Tad and The Joe Show brought their pythons.

Mod Down...

Not really sure what happened here, I just heard a thud on the ground turned around and
snapped off this flick. Poor Mod :(

4 down 11 to go...

Basically to make it to Grand Wizard status my Staff had to go over my head.

1/2 way there...

My name is RRRRalph The Grand Wizard!

It was all fun and games till 15 beers mixed with hotdogs and hamburgers all came up at the same time.
I guess the ground soaked up all the Coors.

Staff DOWN!!!

Went up to the Mod VS Rockers campout over the weekend.
Needless to say I'm officially a Wizard. I put down 15 Coors Originals (which a few hours later manage to all come back up) and in the end my staff reached 6'6". When I woke up, I found my staff broken like my liver.
More photo's to come.

MAKE IT COUNT...

So the past week I've been going through about 17 years of Element Skate footage.
I've had to edit a montage for the upcoming MAKE IT COUNT PREMIER on July 28th at the Lido Theatre in Newport Beach.

1986

I remember this cover as if it were yesterday, Jesse Martinez was one of my favorites. I cut it off and put it on one of my school folders.
THRASHER MAGAZINE has the complete 1986 year of magazine's up on their site. Really cool to take a look back at the first year I started skating.
23 years deep, and lovin it.
