30 Seconds of Trash

Throwaway from the Anti-Gravity montage. I don't know why the freeze frame has glitches in it, maybe it's just the computer I'm on.



Also I realized that the finger skate pictures weren't sized right this morning. Whoops. Should be fixed now.

Finger Skateboarding

Not too long ago, my mom thought she was being cute and sent me the anti-tech deck in the mail. I happened to be reading the back, and became intrigued by the 'tail grind'. Click the image below:

Aside from the gnarly act of sink blazing, I'm assuming a tail grind would be the act of stopping. Or perhaps theyre ahead of the curve and it's some new smith flip out type of fad. I just dont see why you would need to 'stop' a tech deck, since according to them youre supposed to hold it pinched between your fingers. Why not just lift your hand. They also reference another interesting trick, the stand-off, as seen right next to the confusingly illustrated hands in the wallride photo:

Whatever that is. Notice the stubby mini-fingers on the wallride. And since I'm still waiting for a decent idea to hit me for a legit update, contemplate this odd little saying from what I'm guessing is an overly-horny psychology author that I noticed in one my textbooks:

somebody's sense of humor sucks worse than mine.

check back early next week for some anti-gravity leftovers, and hopefully some kind of street throwaway segment.

Anti-Slackity



Been skating Anti-Gravity alot, skated and filmed with some chill guys and the tried and true Culpeper clan. Don't hate because its not 100% 540.

Slackin'

Not for much longer. A montage was planned for the past weekend but three sessions at anti-gravity grew into six and supposedly a seventh tomorrow. So look for that clip soon, it's already started just awaiting the last bit of footage.

Also, due to the weather outdoor filming has been basically dead, as soon as its warmer outside again we'll be able to start deciding on a date to finish up Rough filming and start organizing that premiere.

Finally, congratulations to Jesse Clare for picking up a shop sponsor in the form of 4 Down Skate Shop. About time someone gave that boy some official support. Be watching for his welcome video soon.
