This is

More fireworks.

Photo Fuse

Pretty sure that moments after I shot this photo Mr. Short Fuse told me "No photos".

Unsane

Unsafe and insane yet, child friendly.

No thumbs for moms

A mother and son light off fireworks, given to them by N01, in a Motel6 parking lot.

Heavy Metal

Magnus with a Mill Woods transfer. I think I heard he's in a band now. I'll be so disappointed if he's playing anything other than Norwegian Death Metal.

Chilibeck

Matthews sticks the video camera into Kellan's tilted horizon switch flip. A cool little newspaper article about being old. Fortunately I can't relate to it at all. Whoever made this local TV commercial is a genius.

Neck Beard

I have no idea why, but it's obviously on purpose.

Hesh Flaw

I so wanted to love this video. Hell, how can a skate video that comes with a sticker like the one above, not rule? I think I can speak for all skaters who shop in the "Husky" section of the skateshop, that we bought this video solely to see a Stu Graham part. We wanted to see that human freight train destroy some skateparks. But unfortunately he was deported, and apparently video cameras haven't caught on in Scotland yet. So we're left with like three tricks during the credits. Lame. Al Partanen has the best part by far, but it's on a seperate disk. I hate it when companies make "two disk deluxe editions". Now I've got to put down my bag of danish, get up, walk all the way over to the dvd player and change the disk everytime I want to see his part. It sucks and I get all out of breath. Put everything on one disk already. This isn't the Lord of the Rings. Devin Appelo has a pretty rad part, but it's saddled with what I can only decribe as experimental electronic circus music. Awful. Same goes for the stupid drum music during the Japan tour part. Creature's am's rule, but I felt like I was watching half a part and that the rest of their footage was being saved for another video. Born Dead was awesome and free. Maybe I'll go watch that again.

Bridge rock

Keegan Callahan dangles a wall ride to front rock.

This one's for Nate

Man I know hospital food sucks, but I hope your doctors are better than this. I think he's got a smoke going in one hand. Keep your head up Nate.

Ground on down

My favorite accomplishment of 2009.

I can never seem to hit the "Monday Morning Old Man" sessions at the West park. I always miss the beer belly and neck tattoo session, yet I always seem to arrive just in time for some eight-year-old's birthday party session. Above Craig Smith scares the elderly away with a switch heel.
