G-L-O-R-Y: A new skate game invented by John Rattray.

And since I suck at the flat ground skate...maybe I can hang with some of you at this game.

Let's play it...Saturday night at the rink!

Josh Kalis On DGK...NO WAY!


You all know how I roll when it comes to AWS....so you'll understand that I'm kinda sad that Josh Kalis has trekked over to another team, (DGK). However...I wish him the best. He continues to push wood on the streets with a true style and finess of his own. Good luck Joshua.

GOLDEN TICKET


Much like Charlie Bucket, I now have a chance to go to the factory of my dreams. Except at this factory, they don't make Wonka Bars: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/d4/Wonkabar2.jpg , Fizzy-Lifting Drinks: http://nickfruhling.com/portfolio/packaging/images/PA_Wonka2.jpg or Three-Course-Dinner Gum: http://content6.flixster.com/question/37/57/99/3757996_std.jpg

Instead...they have erected a castle of skateboarding goodness within a warehouse in downtown Los Angeles: http://theberrics.com/index.html :But I'm sure you all know this already.

All I had to do was purchase the Battle at the Berrics dvd and pray that my copy will hold the Golden Ticket...wish me luck.

A dream I had last night.


It may have some connection from my recent family vacation to Khalifornia where one day we drove up to the mountains and had lunch in the town of Big Bear. What I remember is sitting in a doctor's office waiting room where seated behind a desk with a computer was Marc Johnson. He was asking me basic info questions like you would when you fill out insurance paperwork at any doctor visit. After a couple minutes, he leaned over the desk a bit to get a better look at me and at that point noticed the clothes I was wearing. He ask me if I skateboarded. I said yeah, and you're Marc Johnson. He then stood up from the desk...walked around and stood there with me as we carried on a regular conversation about skateboarding as if we had all the time in the world. It was great.

Then I woke up.

Thanks for the chat MJ.

For the Ladies

Being it is that I am a husband of a lady that skateboards...I found this video pretty cool. The music sucks...but it's got some ill female skateboarding stunts. I dedicate this to TEAM PHAT BEAVER.

Back In the Day


Check the date on this photo...dang...I was only 20 years old then. My buddy Eric Guyler and I saddlin' up at the BARN so we could go get our sesh on in Ames, Ia. I'm pretty sure my lovely bride Diana took this picture, (years before we even thought about spawning little rippers like Nehe & Zekie). Those were some fun times.

Workshop Memorabilia? You Be The Judge.



A few years ago, before I remodeled my basement...this is what I did with all my stash of old Workshop decks. Dang...I must be one crafty son-of-a-gun.

Dear Alien Workshop, From Your Biggest Fan


For those of you who know me...you're aware that I'm an avid Alien Workshop fan. So next week is really starting to get my blood flowin'...you know...like when you're a little kid that has to go to bed on Christmas eve and you can't sleep because you know what wonderful treasures are just around the corner. It's kinda like that I guess. What really excites me is that we, (the skateboard patrons of Des Moines) get to experience a real "Big City" style skateboard video premier at a movie theater amongst some of our most favorite of dudes.

Cheers to SUBSECT for hookin' us up!

To prove my loyalty...here is a picture of me, (today) wearing a Workshop hat that I purchased 13 years ago...yes...I was 17 and in the 11th grade back then...and to this day, I still wear it on occasion. I'd say that this next week really calls for it...so if you see me and I'm not wearing it...call me out...make me do push-ups or something.
