This is cool

This picture is applicable to this blog, yes.

This drawing is from a blog I've been checking for a while now. It's a guy who's drawing every person in NYC (jokingly) and he posts new drawings on his blog all the time.

bible verse of the day!

daily devotion time.

"Then I heard the LORD say to the other men, "Follow him through the city and kill everyone whose forehead is not marked. Show no mercy; have no pity! Kill them all – old and young, girls and women and little children." (Ezekiel 9:5)

bible verse of the day:

"You shall not round off the side-growth of your heads nor harm the edges of your beard."
-Leviticus 19:27

song requests

tell me what you want to see happening, boys.

new shiz part II

things that WILL be in the video:

1. a bunch of shitty gainesville spots we have to work our asses off to make skateable and are on the verge of "seriously, you want to skate that?"
2.

things that will not be in the video:

1. M.I.A.
2. time-lapse footage of clouds and streets
3. lifestyle shots
4. smith kickflips (though this one isn't really fair, because if i was good enough to do smith kickflips, i'm sure i would do them all the time)
5. spiders

new shiz

viera ride shop - erik knudsen

well, i might as well post it. here's erik's part i made for the viera site. the first edit i made was to tom waits and was weird as hell, but erik wanted something a little more normal and more like a "real" video part. well, this is it. note that this is not all of his footage and that this in no way represents his part in the final video.

FULLY FLAILED

i've been up all night, spending a ridiculous amount of time editing the silliest 10-second clip ever. but it was worth it. in 2 months, you'll see why the video is called fully flailed.

what? johnny's in the well?

semi-creepy good-times photo:

great news.

mr. roder's neighborhood

well, that was quick. it didn't take michael long to come through with a smooth line. big props to the little guy.

the devil's number

just now i got home from backpacking through the snowy virginia mountains. yes, you read that right. mandible claw is a versatile creature. we forded rivers and saw wild ponies. anyway, i got on the internet and this was the number of visits to the site!
so. now that i've dusted the snow from my shoulders, it's skate time again. cory and michael are on their way over to film. all right!

best part of the new flip video:

mandible clawing!

the poll

from scott's blog. according to the votes, fully flailed is the best video of the decade. and it hasn't even come out yet! fuck yeah!

final gut

the timeline of erik's edited footy, no slow-mo, no filler. all the throwaway tricks have already been taken out. pushing five minutes. meow.

tallahassee, part 1

the weekend was a blast. tons of new spots, followed by crazy nights, followed by late-night hardcore boxing. i have a black eye right now, and will got a split lip. photos from cory's and mike's cameras to come soon. for now, these are some stills from the skating. as usual, erik got as much footage as everyone else put together, but that's not surprising, since he's better than us. ooh, the "sponsored" kid, so cool. fogt, thanks for housing the five of us and bringing us around!

wade speyer

we went back to the new loading dock spot, and erik and shawn each got a line. then erik went and did the craziest ledge line ever. serious, serious stuff, and all while i'm rapping the kanye song from a few posts below. "cuz if you try hard, then you die hard."
