Mark’s part from Risk It! and this vid Sweet Tietz shot last year are almost 20 years apart. Dude is still ripping harder than ever.
Aaron’s 1/23/09.
After a weeks worth of rain, everyone was ready to skate. It’s Aaron’s birthday today, so went stopped by and got some grinds in. Only a few shots…

Ben is the gnarliest dude ever to watch skate. He was killing it all day (and prob still is as I type this) but this bail shot sums up how insane he really is.

Bacon – Unheard Video Premieres.
The new Bacon video will premiere on the west coast this month and will be at SoCal Skateshop in Mission Viejo on Jan 30th. I’m sure it will be epic.

Huge thanks to everyone for the photo opps. Stoked to skate all these places and be able to do it with some rad people. Here’s to 2010!
Get out of the rain, get into the garage.
Extreme weather = extreme terrain.
Rain Sucks.
Except when you have access to super secret indoor facilities with Xtreeeeme terrain.
