It's been real nice weather the past two days and since I've been motivated seemed like a good chance to get some filming done. Stay Hyped! Shred On!

Motivated

2012-01-01T14:50:00.005-05:00

Saw the new video from Magic Bullet skate shop out in Fredericksburg VA and have been motivated to film more. This video has some new footage and mixed in with some older but unseen footy. GO SKATE!

Anti 1.5

2011-06-10T21:42:00.002-04:00

A minute and a half of Anti-Gravity clips. Filmed by R.j. Venters and Kenny Wonka on R.j.'s pocket camera. Edited up by me.

I filmed Londen's clip on a different camera tho.

Allan just got Tim a sick Stoke of the Day on the Thrasher site. Check the link below for the page.

Thrasher Stoke of the Day Page

Also, ROUGH is finally online:

For anyone who hasn't seen it and wants to or people who don't like DVDs, whichever and whatever.

Individual parts are selectable and viewable here.

Lastly, I hear rumors of a couple clips being filmed, so that's awesome as well. Got some filming of my own planned this weekend so we'll see how all this ends up coming together in the future. Be prepared to complain though; at least whatever film comes out of my camp is not gonna be 100% Culpeper skaters.

HEY THERE

2011-02-04T03:03:00.002-05:00

Been a while, figure anyone that still checks this blog is lookin for some kind of update, which, until I finish uploading ROUGH part by part and in it's entirety, is not really gonna happen.

But I filmed a little montage with some friends and a kids GL2 a couple weeks back and sat down and messed with another of Charlie Stone's tracks and came up with this in all it's faux-coolness. Peep it, haters gonna hate.

Conclusion/Disclaimer

2010-09-29T15:07:00.002-04:00

The below post was not meant to sound vain or egotistical by any means. I merely wanted to explain the broader importance of what we have all worked to create.

That being said, any comments about what you'd like to see done with this website in the future, things you'd like to see, design changes, etc are welcome. Although we have to approve posts before they show up due to the large amount of penis-enhancement spam we receive on here daily, I will make a special effort to make these comments visible for conversation and consideration daily if interest is shown.

Basically, Rep The Pep is stagnant right now, and anything you guys can come up with that can increase our productivity and promote interest in the site and Culpeper skateboarding is welcomed. Give us some ideas.

Several options for the future which I've considered briefly:
-A highlights montage from ROUGH (although selecting specific tricks from that video as highlights will be difficult)
-Documentary style/insider voices about the making of ROUGH and/or Rep The Pep in retrospect
-A retrospective video spanning from the very first Rep The Pep updates up until the ROUGH release
-Spotumentaries, which we toyed with doing quite some time ago but never came to completion (Roy Rogers, Glass Gap, etc)
-Throwaway footage dumps (yes, there is more throwaway somehow. This WILL happen, but I do not know when)
-Holiday videos, once again

ROUGH v. RTP

2010-09-29T00:08:00.007-04:00

So, having watched Rep The Pep for the first time in several months (the last time being the week before the ROUGH premiere), I noticed several differences between the videos that may or may not be of interest. Although in technical terms the skating is a step above, the editing is a step above, and the filming is a far step above for ROUGH, Rep The Pep stands alone as it's own force, and possibly, dare I say, a Culpeper Masterpiece. Since we have no new footage to show, due to broken cameras and a break from filming, I hope this post will be readable and somewhat interesting to those involved in any part of the Park's past.

Rep The Pep and Rough differ on several obvious levels; for one, the level of technical skating in RTP is higher, due to our park-shark nature at that time. For two, Jesse, Jasi, DC, Max and Maxi all lack full parts, and David Dennis, Shane, and Hunner are completely absent from the production. Third, the music in ROUGH is not local, and fourth, the montages from Rep The Pep are absent in ROUGH.

Let me explain these meanings.

ROUGH, initially a street-compliment to the park-heavy Rep The Pep, ended up being a feat of conquering distance and communication, with most of us shotgunned throughout the state of Virginia and even as far as North Carolina, Germany, Alabama, Australia, and wherever else Maximilian was commissioned to. To finish ROUGH we had to coordinate with people I'd never even met, and slap together older footage post-relocation with newer footage from unmet counterparts. We had to deal with evolving schedules, growing lives, and un-forseen tragedies as well, making the once complimentary video a brand all it's own. ROUGH was originally slated to be a short, all street and concrete park montage, and although clocking in around a short 25 minutes, it obviously became much more. The issues of getting crew members to actually show up to skate became more problematic than the actual act of skating and getting footage; for example, Maxwell and Mike were initially slated for full parts, and Maxi was expected to deliver a full length effort over the short span of one month. Life issues aside, everyone gave ROUGH a pretty damn heroic try; after all, we are a bunch of skatepark sludge that's managed to keep it together for four years in a row. Considering this, ROUGH in it's portrayal of street missions and battles against time, daylight, the seasons, security, and schedules is a masterpiece in it's own right, showing what can be done with the limited space made available for skating of an unnatural nature; that is, street skating.

Yet however better in terms of ability ROUGH is compared to Rep The Pep, my recent viewing of RTP reminded me of several things that make that project a unique outcome all it's own, and worthy of future viewing despite it's 'big' brother ROUGH. Considering even the menu image, the pure feat of synchronizing and bringing together 12 people at the exact same time and date even wearing the same shirt is remarkable. David's hubba-happy massacre, the Roy Rogers shutdown, the old ledge and spine meeting an unprecedented slaughter. All of this was a miracle of proportions unknown to the average park attendee. True, ROUGH opened doors on the Sherwin Williams 3-to-Flat, the Glass Gap, and Golden Corral; yet Rep The Pep stands as a testament not to the abilities of the 13 skaters featured in it, but rather to the two-year time period in which it was filmed. Rep The Pep is full of park skating, and God knows I have received enough criticism over this. However, the video itself serves as a time capsule into the hype and depression and pure feeling of that time, whenever it so fell into your lifespan. Suffering the loss of an amazing friend and skater, the people featured in that video (many swearing to never skate the park again after Hunner's loss) persevered over insurmountable issues and odds to compile something which represents not only their own daily activities, but a truly unique history of the Culpeper skate park. Footage from Maxwell's camera dating as far back as 2003 and additional footage contributed by Timmy Rall's GL2 on Travis Laplante and Bryan Lamb's filming missions combined with the bro-cam footage of Pirate Steve Bledsoe all show a period in time when the park was THE place to be, a time when hometown legends' (Gookin, Miller, the 'old guard' from the park's early days) impact was felt and pushed everyday. Rep The Pep brought together every capable person in the town at that time, and fused it with music movements and the always-problematic period of transition from one generation to another in the Culpeper youth. The footage portrayed within shows more than just skating; ask any of the involved about certain clips. There are stories within each part, including Davey's meeting of his now-multi-year romance partner, Allan's tooth breaking, Shane's baby-blessed times of freedom, and Maxwell's Sherwin Williams lunch breaks. Culpeper skateboarding, highlighted by unnecessary newspaper coverage and an abundance of young skaters, was at a peak at this moment in time. Rep The Pep showcases the lives of the park regulars at this controversial and emotionally wrenching time, and gives a hopeful future a glimpse into the everyday accomplishments of these guys. Although not representative of talents shifted into the rugged and unforgiving East Coast atmosphere, it does show the progression of the park, the sessions, the friendships, and the triumphs achieved by the coming-together of two groups of people fused with the input of many more. Altogether, Rep The Pep is not about the ROUGH-showcased blowouts on the movie theater flat gap, the Fredericksburg dock to rail, the Bryant Park bricks, or White Walls. Rep The Pep is a time capsule, one in which everyone present can look back on and enjoy the memories of a culture uprooted and flipped. Take out your copy and enjoy whenever you have the chance; the odds surrounding even the filming of that video are too much to explain in this space. Don't take that particular production for granted (or ROUGH, for that matter).... That project was for everyone, that project was for the Park, for Hunner, for the town council that doubted our ability to exist. ROUGH and Rep The Pep are two very different presentations; although many will think I'm seeing too deeply into this, I have been at the heart of each project. The problems and triumphs of both are worth attention, and we made them for viewers. Enjoy these products for what they are; there are no Culpeper predecessors like them, save the early video "Insight" by Ricky Strevel (good luck finding one, even mine got stolen). Each DVD represents a different time and the lives of different people; they are not to be seen as progressive elements, but rather as compliments, efforts of exertion by guys attempting to balance their lives with their passions. Tragedy, separation, scheduling, coordination - all are problems associated with both videos. Take them out of their dusty cases and give them a view whenever you have the chance; that will make the work worth it.

Although indignant and defensive at times, I have put the effort into these videos for the viewers of Culpeper. Tim and I have dedicated years of our lives to these projects, not to mention the time put in by the skaters, and the contributions of musicians and council friends. Watch them, think about them. Never let their meaning be lost, especially Rep The Pep. We ride for Hunner, who can never ride among us again. Skate forever.

What's Done is Done

2010-08-28T14:34:00.003-04:00

So ROUGH is finished and hopefully anyone that wants a copy has one in their mitts by now, if not just snag Tim down at the park and he's got the bulk of them. The final premieres are today in Norfolk and Fredericksburg, unless the Fredericksburg one fell through. I'd say a throwaway montage is in the works but honestly there isn't that much left after four throwaway montages and the credits, but I'll see what I can cook up in the coming weeks. Not that I'm too keen to do any editing at the moment, but it's gotta get used sometime....

Anyways, for the time being it's gonna be back to park montages, who knows what the next project will be or if there will be another one run under this site, seeing as two full length projects have reached completion during the tenure of repthepep.com. Looking back at both my blip accounts and Tim's, we have cranked out an unbelievable amount of quality footage since 2007, and hopefully we can keep on doing it. Look out for updates on Tim's future plans for Culpeper and for news on what should be a one year filming project from my blog, skatepolitik.blogspot.com. If you haven't yet, roll over there to view Jordan Hoffart's latest Adio part and Dylan Reider's Gravis part.

In the meantime, hopefully everyone enjoyed and will enjoy ROUGH, the problems and issues we ran into making that video certainly made it worth it and it was a pretty unforgettable and extremely busy time period.

Thanks to all of you that follow and support us.

Anti-DosMinutos

2010-06-14T16:50:00.002-04:00

More Anti footy. Me and Chase Fuller mostly this time. Chase Norman got a couple quick clips as well, and RJ, whom Fuller knew. Another Charlie Stone audio track, circa Rep The Pep's release.

2010-06-08T16:24:00.003-04:00

I launched one as well, pretty much gonna be internet and DVD video commentary, and stuff about a future project.

filming-crunch-time. Funchtime.

check your facebooks, those of you involved.

everyone else, expect a few more anti-gravity clips and maybe a throwaway montage sometime next month, then ROUGH will be out by late August.

get hyped.

Media Memorial

2010-05-13T23:15:00.007-04:00

I went through my harddrives trying to find something I could post for Hunner today. Tim's post was perfect, but I wanted to add some visual stuff that hasn't been seen in a while. Rest in Peace, man.

-The Memorial clip, for anyone who hasn't seen it (I always wished I'd had more time to fix the sound, but it's special in it's rawness, I think. The song is especially powerful.)

Never Forget

2010-05-13T11:19:00.003-04:00

Seems only fitting that the 100th post on this little blog be about one of the best skaters to ever push around Culpeper. It's crazy how school and work can seem like they drag on forever but the passing of a fellow skater can seem like it was only yesterday. I'm not gonna act like I was close with Hunter Payne because that wouldn't be true. I only talked to the guy a handful of times but I had alot of respect for him on and off his skateboard. Always a positive attitude and could pull off the most ridicolous jokes that anyone else would look like a fool to try. Way ahead of his time in terms of skating the dude was an absolute natural. I know his passing hit me hard and I'm sure it hit home with everyone else at the park and his close friends. I know it sounds cheesy but live each day like it's your last. If you have something you need to say to somebody whether it be asking for forgiveness or apologize do it because you never know what tomorrow will bring. Same goes for skating, never leave a spot saying you'll try it tomorrow because tomorrow the spot might be gone, knobbed or whatever. Live each day to the fullest, go bomb a hill today for Hunter or try to learn nollie overcrooks as good as him, haha good luck with the second one.

Spring Park Montage

2010-05-11T22:31:00.002-04:00

Some bro-filmin and some bad colors, and Blake cutting me off on our pre-discussed line-path. Excuses excuses. Check it out, and expect a bro-cam montage in a couple weeks or so that was supposed to be in this.

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner

2010-05-10T21:14:00.002-04:00

Tomorrow is lookin like the day the park montage will be up. Unfortunately, file conversions and people not bringing me discs of footage cut down on the massive amount of clips going into the final product, soooo it's not gonna be the epic I had originally envisioned. Oh well. Check back tomorrow evening to catch a glimpse of the first Mike Sheridan A-grade footage at Anti, along with my 757 companions killin it with Blake. And I'm in it too, but who cares about that.

Throwaway Montizzle

2010-05-05T16:27:00.001-04:00

Got it done before the park montage, whoops. Experience the Blake-led glory.

2010-05-02T22:54:00.002-04:00

Still waiting on two guys to get me some contributing park footage.... I had hoped for a weekend release but thankfully, I had to work instead for the first time in a while. Now that school's done for some of us, the filming is about to get heavy, and I've already started a street throwaway clip. I believe it's the first time in several years I've had two clips in progress at once. It helps when you find a song before you start, word to the wise. Check back this week, it's gonna be a long one.

Only 5 away from...

2010-04-13T13:14:00.002-04:00

...100 posts! Ya Ya big deal. I started another blog, its called http://shred-on.blogspot.com/ it is seriously text heavy, no pictures yet and no real video links. If you are the type of person that just flips through the skate mag and looks only at the pictures, skipping all the interviews then don't even bother clicking. It's not a "deep" blog or anything, nothing mind blowing, just stupid things that you'd probably hear me or someone else say while watching a skate video or mumbling at the skatepark. If you hate the blog or think it's lame, awesome. Go make your own blog and talk about how lame it is, then link me to it so I can have something to laugh at.

Competition/Skate Jam Tomorrow

2010-04-07T12:51:00.002-04:00

For those of you that didn't skate 8 or so years ago, Solomon was the first black skater that I had ever seen in Culpeper. Yesterday he put up some flyers announcing a little Skate Jam / Competition for tomorrow at 5. I think it's supposed to be best hip trick, best mini ramp line, and best run at the big side of the park. Might be some prizes and all that, who knows. If it doesn't rain everyone should definetly come out, should be good times all around. Maybe I'll actually do some filming haha.

30 Seconds of Trash

2010-02-26T19:51:00.003-05:00

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

2010-02-19T14:00:00.018-05:00

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

2010-02-06T10:23:00.002-05:00

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'

2010-02-03T16:28:00.004-05:00

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.

Another round of Rough throwaway

2010-01-14T14:52:00.002-05:00

Enjoy the steaming helpings of throwaway. While working on this little extravaganza I realized there's even more throwaway than I thought. Part two sometime soon?

A Winter Park Endeavor.....

2009-12-29T02:02:00.002-05:00

Not much throwaway has been coming out of the Pep since the weather has been so trife, so a park montage from the 757 is what you get instead. New faces for this site, but faces you'll be seeing again.

Stuff you need to know...

2009-12-21T20:33:00.002-05:00

After two days of work the small side of the park and the mini ramp have been shoveled. There are paths from the road, cause the paths going around the park are still covered. The paths from the road are located at the green street sign for the small side and the one for the mini is pretty much in the middle of the ramp. Should be dry tomorrow , might wanna bring a towell, and an extra pair of shoes haha.

http://getcultural.blogspot.com/ is a blog out of Fredericksburg that I like to look at. They got a sick little montage up that you should check out while you're trapped indoors.

Thanks to everyone that helped shovel.

Last Unedited Vault Clip

2009-11-23T20:15:00.003-05:00

Mr. Blake Scott once again. this is from early fall 2007. Note the bleachers. Who doesn't miss those damn things?

Also due to some stuff that's come up, the montage I had planned has got to be put off once more. I apologize. We apologize. It WILL be up as soon as there is time to make it.

In the meantime, watch Cory Kennedy blank Torey Pudwill in the Berrics runner-up game after you watch Blake's clip, and talk amongst your friends about whether that was a cheap way to win or not.

Blake and Jesse Vault Clip

2009-11-19T10:15:00.003-05:00

Some things that never made it into anything. Blake cabbed the spine in a line later, and the switch tailslide at the end was in Rep The Pep. But quick updates are the name of the game for right now so when I found this little compilation I put it up here. Montage coming soon.

Tiny Blake from the Vault

2009-11-13T20:03:00.003-05:00

I had intended to make a montage of footage that didn't quite make the cut for Rep The Pep, but I ran into a bunch of clips like this from before we even had the site. So here's the oldest one, excuse the sound it was made quickly in 07 I didn't know what i was doing. The last of the poorly-used TRV900 footage.

100% Blake Scott

Halloween Ramp Montage

2009-11-03T10:01:00.001-05:00

Mike's skate park in Norfolk. Fun stuff.

Happy Halloween

2009-11-01T01:34:00.002-04:00

Actually Halloween is technically over but hey, it's the thought that counts. and the three montages coming in the next several weeks. Little clip from tonight should show up early in the week.

also 100% of us are employed now, a feat which has never really happened for all of us. so have patience, the updates ARE coming, we promise

Fayetteville Footy

2009-10-06T14:23:00.004-04:00

We've been low on stuff to update the site with, plus with time going into school..... yeah, excuses are pretty awesome all around. Later tonight a little clip from Jesse, Blake, Koop, and Hunter G's trip to fayetteville a couple months back will be up and ready for viewage, but beware the filming...... its...... bro-cam.

there she is. Koop and Hunter had some fun switching to widescreen it seems. sorry it took so long, sorry it's put together and filmed like crap. busy times, fall is coming soon and fall = filming.

Summer Throwaway Montage

2009-09-08T18:21:00.002-04:00

Stuff not worth sitting on any longer. Little bit from everyone except Maxi, Koop, and Davey D.

Ah, the Benefits of an Everyday Filmer....

2009-09-07T12:28:00.003-04:00

Allan needed a little thing done to give to someone, figured it would be worth posting here as well. Angles that didn't make it into Rep The Pep, some new stuff that's throwaway, some stuff that's been on here, some old.... blah blah. New montage is almost done, look for that soon.

Does this justify as an update?

2009-08-11T20:48:00.003-04:00

Who cares right? Random digicam footage, gotta love the sound of super8 in the last clip.

Weekend Glimpses and Guest Filmers

2009-08-06T20:32:00.001-04:00

Hunter G, Blake and Jesse behind the lens this time. Couple of fun days and some good tricks went down as well. Here's some glimpses and some goof-off lines.

Weekend Glimpses

2009-07-22T21:37:00.000-04:00

A weekend full of distractions. Homeless ladies, dogs, and segways mixed with everyone hitting the pavement, and Jesse's in-the-dark fourth try kickflip.

ROUGH promo

2009-07-14T21:16:00.002-04:00

Tony T...

2009-07-04T20:30:00.002-04:00

kids call him bones. Tony wanted to keep this footage but considering these were all first or second try I'm confident he can get some solid street footage.

Cook out footage

2009-06-30T08:33:00.002-04:00

We're still filmin and traveling most days of the week. footage is starting to stack up so maybe we'll make a promo or montage of throwaway footage in the next month or so. haha a month or so. here's the stuff from the cookout, chill day just like David Collins wanted.

Spring Break '09

2009-04-09T15:42:00.002-04:00

sadly my spring break didn't line up with evan, allan and john's but since all of theirs did they, plus mike and maxwell, went to skatebarn and some other parks.

Anti Gravity

2009-04-05T14:00:00.003-04:00

maxi blake and matt francis (timmy) went to ag with evan. looks like evan has a hard time filming on slick ground haha.

Worst thing about skateboarding ?

2009-03-31T09:51:00.001-04:00

vote or die. you know i'm voting for that cursed curb in front of the old roy rogers.

Maxi had a bday!

2009-03-05T11:55:00.002-05:00

So evan made a montage with some footy thats been sitting on his computer for a while.

old Evan is still skating that lil mini down at the great college of CNU.

Another poll...

2009-02-25T19:06:00.002-05:00

Just about everyone knows my love for those $1 Arizona Drinks they sell at 7-11. Personally my favorite would have to be the Mucho Mango or Kiwi Strawberry but then again who can resist the Half and Half Arnold Palmer? vote or die.
Btw still selling shirts !

New Shirt Color

2009-02-20T13:20:00.003-05:00

We have smalls, mediums, larges, x-larges and even a couple youth xl for the smaller girls or little kids. 15$ as always.

P&J! (Pictures and Junk)

2009-02-18T19:15:00.004-05:00

skated white walls for like 5 minutes before the alien premiere. sadly the good one was blocked by cars. oh well, fun anyway. all green photos by evan .

all green tinted like them emerica ads right ?

me trying to do one of those jason adams tweaky foot front rocks.

my favorite video in a longggggg time.

This picture represents the fact that filming has begun for the new Rough Skateboards, "Rough Edit" video. Rough is just something fun me and DC made up, format for the video will be something along the lines of 10 - 15 minutes , a part by Blake ( since he racks up the footy ) , a street section , a concrete park section , and maybe an intro/outro deal. should be done in 6 months maybe more/less.

oh yea , need a board ? 7.75 with jessup grip lemme know.

New Poll !

2009-02-17T19:18:00.002-05:00

Added a new poll discussing all the super trendy over done tricks at the park. Remember back in the old days when front rocks, rolling over the spine, and nollie back 180s on the bank were the hot tricks? Don't get me wrong I like switch blunts and 5-0 fakies but they seem to be all the rage right now and they're starting to lose their significance. Maybe it's just because I can't do either haha.

Finally Footy

2009-02-04T15:00:00.003-05:00

I got an ender! And it's an early grab haha. Look at Allan getting all techy with them 5-0 fakie variations.

New Junk!

2009-02-03T23:08:00.002-05:00

Sorry we didn't have updates for a while, my computer was down and Evan is a busy man in college. Updated the blog a little bit, even added a poll which I think we'll start doing weekly. Btw, what person voted for "Boring-ton" Warrenton ? Nobody can like that park that much. Footage update coming this week.

Evan says" the intro did NOT come out the same way as it was in the editing program, and im too lazy to fix it. both nosegrinds, the ollie, the melon, the bs 180 and the nollie were all first try."

No news is good news....

2008-07-23T01:00:00.003-04:00

The premiere turned out alot better than i thought it was going to . i think when it was all said and done we had like 75+ people there .

shirts have been going fast we now only have small and mediums in both colors so if you would like one you can email evan or me at repthepep@yahoo.com . they cost 15$

and we are working on getting the dvds all duplicated so they should be ready sometime this weekend, if you'd like a copy of that try to see me or evan at the park and we'll hook you up.
