Them super cool dudes known as The Mumlers have a song in a pretty sweet video of Arto Saari from the big money makers over at Gravis. Speaking of sweet, Fatbody was so excited about the post that was put up about his iPhone cover that he decided to come over and take me to get some ice coffee. I’ll probably go with a iced soy (1/4 choco) mocha. Yuuuummmm…sweeeeeet.
Jon Choi and Stink Miller recently took a trip away from their home in Portland to visit some friends here in SJ. Oregon has turned them into true hippies….long hair, no cell phones, scraggly facial hair, camping, bon fires, homegrown herb, gardening, drum circles, hiking….and yet still shredding! In fact, they just made a house video entitled “Go Green.” If you can find this video anywhere for sale, BUY IT…..its a fun watch! The video features Stephen Miller, Jon Choi, Brandon Burkett, Nich Kunz, Jesse Bracewell, T-man, Ricky Espinoza, SNK, and many more. Heres a lil preview of “Go Green” for your eyes to feast on.

Last weekend, Caswell was invited to the Sacramento Kings game….and brought along his girlfriend Veronika, hyphy Joe, and myself to witness the festivities. Being a superstar professional skateboarder that he is….we got the royal treatment there. Caswell got to sit courtside along with other superstar pro-skaters during the game. They had to do some autograph signings and random activities between quarters and during halftime.
We originally thought Caswell would have to skate during half time, but he didnt have to after all…..he just had to grace Sacramento with his presence. So as the pro’s watched the game from their courtside seats….Hyphy Joe, Veronika and myself got the whole VIP box to ourselves (which was fully catered with booze and food, and a body guard standing outside to make sure there were no unwanted guests in our box).
Here’s an old video of Caswell from a loooong time ago. It was a part in a house video from the legendary San Fernando skate house. A lot of scumbag-esque memories derived from that place. We all knew that Cas was destined for skateboard superstardom then, but most of us didn’t want anything to do with him. It took a few years, but he kicked, punched, ate and smoked his way into our hearts. Like a bad rash, he grew on us.

Please take heed of the pony tail. That shit got him mad laid back in jr. high school. I think he might be going for that look again.
Osiris announced Peter Raffin to the team as “San Jose’s finest.” I love Pete and all, but if he is San Jose’s finest, then I’m motherfucking Fred Atsaire. Maybe we’ll make Peter take a bath and/or put some clean clothes on and we can get him out of the curb-dwelling-homeless category and one step closer to the big O’s claim. Whether or not he’s scaggles or crispy, I’m not gonna deny that Jeeter gets down on his skateboard.
I know you bought the God Save the Label video, right? RIGHT?! ok good. Then I don’t feel bad about putting this part up.
Our buddy, Sami, came out here from Finland a few years ago and got more ass than a toilet seat. He should probably come back for a visit and put a hurting on the local bartrogs. (disclaimer; if Sami’s hot ass girlfriend understands English and happens to read this, I made it all up. When Sami was here he was a perfect gentleman, read books and recited poetry for the ladies only. Uh…yeah, that’s what happened).
It blows me away that Cab is still fucking crushing shit to this day. Peep the back smith and flash ‘n roll. You know he’s still got that shit on lock. I used to wear cut off sweatpants with little bats on the side of them cus of this guy. But he used to wear suspenders and a vest for god knows what reason.
After the rain stops, it’s time to go get your shred on. Zack Wallin doesn’t let a little puddle or a water logged skateboard stop him from doing his thing. I bet the car ride home wasn’t as fun.

And there you have it… two weeks of all Halba, all day, everyday…all wrapped up with this video. Halba, you are a trooper for putting up with such shitty friends. Let me know when you don’t hate us anymore and I’ll buy you a beer.
It’s all about heart. Feel the passion.

Back in 2006, Steve Caballero got married and had this awesome bachelor party! We all met up at his house at 6am, jumped in a van and drove around the bay area skating 7 different skate parks. It was an all day skate adventure and ended after dark. I came across these edits i made 4 years ago for slapmagazine.com……and thought i’d share the day with you. Here’s part 1 of 2….

While out on the enjoi trip, Ben celebrated his birthday last year on the rode. I remember we skated the Atlanta foundation spot that day, i made him film some b-day tricks, and then he had to skate a demo afterwards in hazard county. A not-so relaxing birthday for Ben. Atleast at the end of his birthday, he went to a plush apartment to drink and hang out with the twins and half naked girls.
