LOL...I knew you'd say something like this . No dude just an observation . My point about Plan B , was the fact they're losing riders and not replacing them . Their wood is shitty , and as far as graphics go they're on par with 1031 as having the most awful looking art this year . I brought this argument about Plan B here from the skate shop , which was sort of dumb and pointless . Wait until you see Taylor Bingaman and Truman Hooker skate in Hesh Law DAO . :cool:

Nyjah started his own company called I and I....personally I am tired as fuck of the whole Rasta thing , shit is gay as TPWF . http://www.iandiskateboards.com/ Any skateboarder owned company has to be better than 1031 .

Plan B " Questionable " , yeah it was amazing , in fact the first 3 vids were great . But seriously , have you seen Plan B decks nowadays ? They're as shitty looking as 1031 in terms of graphics . I'm sure Brian Wenning is a lot happier , as Gallant will be . I don't see Plan B lasting another -10 years , 5-6 at best . Danny Way = Plan B , rightfully so , and when he decides to call it quits so will Plan B .

Storm Shadow & Snakes Eyes . :lol:

Anyone catch the new Expidition One Ryan Gallant ad ? :lol::lol::lol: I fucking can't stand Plan B , and as much as I love Danny Way & Colin McKay....Plan B should've never been re-started . PJ Ladd & P-Rod need to find another team to ride for . P-Rod should've never left Girl . I could totally see PJ Ladd riding for Zoo York or DGK . That's another thing , now DGK has Kalis , they need to get some better riders around him .

Everytime I watch Parking Wars , which is filmed in Philly , I expect to see DAO's car getting a boot on it . :lol:

I did however think Kevin Harris on Powell was a total fag . :lol: I do believe his Father did breakthrough research in finding the Autism gene .

I never knew anyone that did that , but Brian Jules of West Side Skates got his pilot's license just to scout potential pools in Ohio , Pennsylvania & Michigan . :lol::cool:

^^^ Using the internet to find foreclosed homes throughout California so you can drain and skate the pools = Win !!! :lol: Younger kids out there are finally taking notice of rippers like Taylor Bingaman , Ben Hatchell , Ben Raybourne , who destroy a pool/bowl the same they would a 26 stair , double-kinked rail . I'm starting to see resurgence of people saying , " Fuck this I'm skating everything " , and not being pigeonholed as a " Tech guy " , or a " Street Guy " .

I never cut my shoes down , then again I skated Chuck Taylors , and Van's SK8 Hi's & Half Cabs . I started wearing Van's Old School's around my Senior year in High School , 1995 . I had a pair of Duff's " Cobnobblers " , and they were awesome . Never got into DC , Osiris , etc..

Half Cabs came out in 1992 , I know this for a fact besides the video , because I ordered a shitload of them from Skully Bros . The Caballero was my first skate shoe I ever bought . I was 14 , and did a COD through Skully Bros . , my Mom thought spending all the $$$ I had for a pair of shoes to skateboard in was nuts . :lol: http://www.sneakerobsession.com/8944/history-behind-the-vans-half-cab/

After watching those Tree Fort vids , I'm feeling nostalgic . I picked 1993 as a year to reflect on . I was 16 , a sophomore in high school....:lol: 1993 For DAO : Yo, microphone check one two what is this The five foot assassin with the ruffneck business I float like gravity, never had a cavity Got more rhymes than the Winans got family No need to sweat Arsenio to gain some type of fame No shame in my game cause I'll always be the same Styles upon styles upon styles is what I have You wanna diss the Phifer but you still don't know the half I sport New Balance sneakers to avoid a narrow path Messin round with this you catch ?the sizin of em? I never half step cause I'm not a half stepper Drink a lot of soda so they call me Dr. Pepper Refuse to com-pete with BS competition Your name ain't Special Ed so won't you Seckle With the Mission I never walk the streets, think it's all about me Even though deep in my heart, it really could be I just try my best to like go all out Some might even say yo shorty black you're buggin' out [Q-Tip] Uhhh, uhhh, uhhh, uh! Zulu Nation, brothers that's creation Minds get flooded, ejaculation right on the two inch tape The Abstract poet incognito, runsss the cape Not the best not the worst and occasionally I curse to get my point across, so bust, the floss As I go in betweeen, the grit and the dirt Listen to the mission listen Miss as I do work, umm as I crack the, monotone Children of the jazz so, get your own Smokin R&B cause they try to do me or the best of the pack but they can't do rap For it's Abstract, orig-inal You can't get your own and that's, pitiful I know I'd be the man if I cold yanked the plug on R&B, but I can't and that's bugged Buggin out, buggin out, buggin out you're buggin out (repeat 8X) [Phife Dawg] Yo when you bug out, you usually have a reason for the action Sometimes you don't it's just for mere satisfaction People be houndin, always surroundin Pulsin, just like a migraine poundin You don't really fret, you stay in your sense ?Comafied? your feeling, of absolute tense You soar off to another world, deep in your mind But people seem to take that, as being unkind "Oh yo he's acting stank," really on a regal? A man of the fame not a man of the people Believe that if you wanna but I tell you this much Riding on the train with no dough, sucks Once again a case of your feet in my Nike's If a crowd is in my realm I'm saying -- mic please Hip-hop is living, can't yank the plug if you do the result, will end up kind of bugged [Q-Tip] Yo, I am not an invalid although I used to smoke the weed out Ali Shaheed Muhammad used to say I had to be out Schemin on the cookies with the crazy boomin back buns Pushin on the real ?hardest? so we can have the big fun When I left for Rosie I was Boulevard status Battling a MC was when Tip was at his baddest It was one MC after one MC What the world could they be wanting see from little old me Do I have the formula to save the world? Or was it just because I used to swipe the women and all the girls I'm the type of brother with the crazy extended hand kid Dissed by all my brothers I was all up what my man did Supposed to be my man but now I wonder cause you're feeble I go out with the strongest and I seperate the evils it's your brain against my mind, for those about to boot out All you nasty critters even though you see I bug out Buggin out, buggin out, buggin out you're buggin out

72* here in Cleveland...in November !!! Going skating most of the day . :cool: Tree Fort Skateboards Vinny Ponte Danny Supa Jimmy Chadwick

I liked his part in Extremely Sorry a lot .

For DAO :

Yeah I did . There's a ton of sponsored and un-sponsored skaters I've met that were rad . I think a kid you'll be seeing in the magazines soon is Eric Viccarone , on flow for Alien Workshop , Venture , Innes , Hubba & Osiris ( hopefully soon eS ) . He's from the neighborhood , and a good dude . http://www.osirisshoes.com/news/2009/05/18/eric-viccarone-5/comment-page-1/

Best fucking story ever .

Black Label team 1999 in Cleveland was fun as hell . Getting drunk with Jim Gagne 2 days straight , going to horrible strip clubs and watching John Lucero " make it rain " . :lol: Meeting Thomas Morgan in Toronto skating around 1993 , he was super nice . The worst I've talked about before , and that was Steve Berra . Fuck him . He was skating for Birdhouse , and got choked out by a local for being a douche bag .

LOL...I meant Josh Harmony , not Josh Kalis . I was just talking to someone about Kalis being on DGK . :lol:

I've heard this from more than a few people . Josh Kalis is an alright in person .

Happy Halloween !!! Creature At The Berrics http://theberrics.com/dailyops.php

^^^ My favorite Girl / Fourstar Team skater .

So I met Patrick Melcher yesterday at the skate shop . He was in town because he was doing some DJ thing for a friend's bar . Really nice dude , and crazy mustache . He went up to our skate park and shredded the shit out of it .
