Weather:
Still sort of humid with spontaneous showers.

The Such Luck show at EXP with Mark and Ricky is about a month away. If I told you the opening was on September 7th I was incorrect. It’s the following Friday the 14th. So mark your calendars and book your bus tickets. Hopefully the site redesign will be done by then. As for the food zine, it’s still in limbo. Soon I think. Anythings possible. Once the show has opened and closed I’ll post up all the pictures everyones been working on for the past few months so expect a mega-art post in the near future.

Now for the tricks.

I meant to post this up last week. I’m not so happy with the picture cause Brad’s arm is out of frame but it’s hard to complain about a switch 50.

DC Chris had one last BBBQ before he headed back east. Here’s Scotty stocking the High Life.

Gordon brought Mickey Mouse burgers.

There was skating?

Until next summer.

These are from Saturday and don’t really need to be explained. Nate getting rippy.

If you don’t know Spencer he skates like a pinball. Hopefully this will become a semi-regular feature, cause he’s got an endless supply of bizarro maneuvers. I’m proud to present the first Such Luck Trick Tip.

Air and Water show’s this weekend, that’s why the planes are going to be hauling ass over the city.

Got some bad news last night about my old boss. Raise a glass for Mad Jack.

Weather:
Lingering Humidity.


Still visiting with family but I’ve had a few adventures and found some art to share. Back to normal in 2 weeks.

Chris Smith just moved to Bridgeport and when he’s not piloting a skateboard or painting rooms he makes quality artwork. Here is his shoe.

I’m happy to present some of his work. He doesn’t have a site so hopefully you’ll get to enjoy more of his stuff here in the coming weeks and months.

On Thursday we hit the road and got out of the city. It felt like it was 115 degrees. DC Chris put together some photos and a pretty good summary of the day. Here is a video sumation.
