This past Saturday there was a premier held in St.Catharines for the video, and we successful raised $250 to go towards 'Skateboarding Changes Lives', a non-profit organization that is determined to build a Do It Yourself style skateboard park on the island of Barbados! The goal is to raise upwards of $10,000 dollars to build an awesome park for the local skateboarders on the island in hopes of progressing the skateboard community, and help keep the community going strong, evolving, and not die out.
Thanks to everyone that came out, your support and generosity won't be forgotten!

Clips was mainly shot during spring 2012, the idea for the video was to mix skating with funny film clips spliced into it here and thereā¦ filming was interrupted momentarily due to an injury, but the video is made up of footage filmed in 2011, 2012, 2013. I tried to skate myself and get as many clips in there as I could as well in the process. The video was mainly shot on a Sony Vx-1000 with a mark 1. It was mainly shot in BC and Ontario, as well as Arizona.

All round it was an amazing time and really reminded me about the essence of what skateboarding is all about and the positive vibes it can add to life. I was very fortunate to meet the amazing people I did while I stayed there and I was so moved by the skate scene there that I have decided to make a short documentary film showing the skateboarding scene of Barbados, in hopes that through awareness the scene can evolve and maybe in the near future the skateboard community will be blessed with a skateboard park. Here is a short trailer for the documentary film I am working on.

Now the time has come to finally release that video..
The video is called CLIPS and I will be posting more info as the release gets closer, but for now here is a short teaser, Enjoy!

This brought a lot of skaters out of Hibernation and we ended up having a 14 person session at one of the oldest parks in the area that my friends and I grew up skateboarding at roughly 10 years ago.
Special thanks to Blake Hannahson for taking some awesome pictures! <a href="http://www.hannahson.tumblr.com">hannahson.tumblr.com</a>

It was an honour to meet him, I told him how his part in Sight Unseen inspired me for years, and I thanked him for the constant inspiration.
Then I asked him if I could take a picture of him, to which he replied, 'Of Course!'
He proceeded to stick his tongue out at me and make other funny faces, giving me a photographer's dream come true of a mini photoshoot. However, I was fumbling around with my flash and did not manage to snap a photo until he was finished making funny faces, and was smiling. Although I missed an epic shot of Cardiel having a good time, making faces, it was an honour to meet him and I still managed to get a decent picture!

Mike was a great friend. He was always having fun and he loved skateboarding more than anything in the world. Mike spent time in Ontario and Vancouver, and made many acquaintances through the process. If you're one of these people,or knew Mike in any way, come out on November 10th and lets skate and have fun in honour of our friend. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Mike Hastie is already heavy into a session by the time that the Van load I am a part of arrives. Also in the Van is Geoff Dermer, Jordan Bacon, Will Blakley,Joe Lynch,Nickey Reu, and Stacy Gabriel.
Mike comes over and says 'hey, whats up?'. then looks at me and says 'I got a few things in mind to film.' I had no idea what I was about to witness... Hastie proceeds to bang out 2 lines, get 3 single tricks and a bunch of slams, then went home and put his kids to sleep! He is a machine. The only way he was able to make the demo in the first place was if he got a babysitter to watch his kids..
Part 2 of the 'Freaks and Geeks' Tour is called 'Hastie Gets a Baby-Sitter'.
Check the Video to see what went down!

The Locals were trying to stand their ground, but with the hungry, tranny-shredding Americans from the South trying to get that Canadian Dollar, it definitely was nothing short of a Battle.
Dave Priest went down and suffered a dislocated knee, and Adam Hopkins later seperated his shoulder in the final minutes of the contest, trying to get his piece of the cash pie, with a 540 in the deep end.
In the end, with several wounded Canadian skaters, the Americans were able to take the top 2 places respectively. Mason Merlino and 'Seattle Mike' took the top 2 places and Hopkins limped away with third place. All three of these guys were skating hard all day and deserved to get paid.
Great day of Skating and hanging in the sun with good people. Enjoy the Video!

This past week, I celebrated my 12th Skate Birthday, which also marked the one year anniversary of my bail that tore my ACL and caused me to miss a year of skateboarding...that being said, physio is going well, and I will back in no time!
Lately the weather has been getting really nice again, and I have some new projects lined up, so keep your eyes peeled for some new posts in the next month! Also a teaser for 'Clips!' coming soon!
