No Pain No Gain

Here's another special feature you'll get to look forward to when the DVD comes out. More and more crap keeps coming up that I never got to use for the video. What we have here is a montage of Cuong Pham takin it like a man. Hit after hit. Slam after slam. He can still laugh it off. Cuong hits the pavement harder than anyone I've skated with before. He just goes for it. Like they say, "No Pain No Gain".

I'll be posted more and more of everyone wreckin themselves.

Dedication

So I thought about putting the whole "Coke Factory Session" on here, but I think I'll just save it for when the DVD comes out and you can just watch it on the special features disc. Besides it's like 10 minutes of extra never before seen footy. Oooh Ahhh.

So as promised here's a short clip of one of the tricks I was trying at the spot. The "Coke Factory Session" was all hyphy. Good times.

Check out Hesson's slow mo action at the end.

Cold as ice

Don't you hate it when you ask your homey to skate, and they give you this excuse: "Naw man, it's wayyy to cold outside!"? I call this disease, PUSSY-ITIS.
Due to this disease coming early this year, I've been busy edited some old footage. Here's all the footage I did'nt use for my part in the video. Either due to shitty filming, sketchy skating, or down right whack. enjoy. Lowres*

*Haters

expect more footy to come. im editing alot of the bonus features for the dvd. next up will be the "coke factory" session.

Grip her and rip her

Sometimes you just need some inspiration. Recently Ryan McKowen has created his own blog, so I figured if Ryan can do it Blair Burns can do it better. I'll be posting similar shit but better like skateboarding photos/videos/partying/etc.

I gripped this deck last night and set it up. It's 15 till 11 a.m. and I'm waiting for Travis (Durham the photographer) to pick me up so we can get on the road. We're heading towards Cinci and most likely will stop through Lex town to do some skating and shoot some flicks. Tonight we'll be at the LITTLE BROTHER show @ Bogart's around 8 p.m. Should be epically triffe.

Yesterday my homey Chase stopped by the skate shop and said he made something. Chase works at Huntington Steel where his dad works. Basically he just welds shit together all day. So, Chase found some scrap metal and hooked it up and made a flatbar. Not just any flatbar, and low high flat bar. Peep the photos.

More shit to come after the weekend is over. Get at it.
