CAN YOU FEEL IT?

(42+40)-(2007-1989)+SHREDZ=?

Pretty serious session by the looks of it!!
Thanks John Raoimondo for the birthday stoke, can't wait to be skating some pools in February.

Sign up now!!

Dudes, let this guy improve your flip game. Skate season will be back soon, keep your bag of tricks tight yo.

Couple pics from Scott McLellan

Not sure if we had posted these before, but here's a couple dope shots from Scotty.
Nick airing over me going into a 50-50. I insist that I had the more difficult job. An air is an air, and yeah a 50-50 is just a 50-50, but I would have been the one responsible for taking Nick out, had I timed it wrong.

Really nice indy from Rob.

OMN sacrifice overalls.

Under a freezing monday moon the legions of leather descend and annihilate. Sometime they sacrifice goats, but last time someone complained so that probably won't happen again any time soon. We have a spare goat if anyones interested.

Anthony Hancock

A couple weeks ago Steve Murray brought a crew of his west coast homies (and some east coasters) out to visit his family and do some shredding. Along with him came Pocket Pistols pro Anthony Hancock. (Pics, Steve)
For some history check out his part in Useless Wooden Toys on Youtube, and you'll be able to see some Pocket Pistols boards in the shop in about a week.

Rob tackles the Big C.

Resident legendary legend Robert Bell fears no fear. He decided it would be a great idea to roll into the big corner of Big Blue. Here he is 'warming up' in the shallow deep nightmare maker.

After a harsh bout of heckling and general fun making Rob couldn't take it anymore. Here he is rolling in. He made it first try. That's Rob for ya.

Heavy OMN sesh

Well, like Greg said, President Raimondo showed up, so, fearing repercussions, everyone was in attendance.

You might think that bag has shoes, pads, and a helmet in it, but it more likely has a couple Pull-Ups, a box of Teddy Grahams, a sippy cup of apple juice, possibly a small porta-pottie, and Rose's favourite Dora doll.

This is the scene, old dudes strapping up, stretching, installing all sorts of pads, braces and wraps over injuries we like to talk about. And yeah, sometimes one Dewalt radio just isn't enough.

The line-up...(I might be laughing about the 5yr old sneakers Rob is wearing).

Honourary Old Man, Steve waiting obediantly. We only keep him around cause he takes nice pictures of us once in awhile.

And he can bust huge airs like this. No focus, I wasn't ready, sorry.

Umm, I turned up the smell exposure on my camera so you get to check out Chris' pads...you smell that? Gross eh? They're cracked, the padding is falling out, and they smell like death. Look around you Chris, 187, hello? You need to do a 187 on THOSE frigging things. Greg and I were talking about what the smell compared to, and the closest thing (we could think of) was an old Grizzly bear smoking a mouldy cigar that had just had sex and eaten a salmon that had just spawned and was half dead.

Greg hitting the hip. Someone else should take this picture, its' dope. Like with a real camera.

Zach zipping through ze round bowl, oblivious to the joke John just told Chris.

And, the President.

President John Raimondo Sessions!

Sunday afternoon/evening, and potentially again Monday evening, President of Skateboarding John Raimondo returns to Halifax to swear in the new bowl, and take a pledge of Schooner and donairs.

Here he is doin' airs at Encinitas and Santa Monica, and yes, that is Eazy-motherfuckin'-E on his board.

A rare Selwyn shot!

Steve Hayes takes some pretty nice skate shots. He's into Bicycle Motocross, I guess they call it BMX? Weird.
This trick is kinda crazy, Selwyn's board is 6' away from his hand, and he gets it back under him every time, it's sick.

Some summer shots

Found a few pics from a nice looking summer day.

sun head and no-arm

Digital proof of sun head and no arm, who come out to shred every Monday.

"No shirts required when you grind out of the 9 into the 6 over the elbow, especially when the sunsetting through your elbow pad silhouettes your finger styles", said the man in the park who shot Jon for this Burly Cap ad.

Steve "Isaac" Hayes Photo Blitz!!!

Steve Hayes is a Monday night fixture, and knows how to capture souls with his electronic eye.

Rob Bell tried his best to evade capture by using his speed spell, and his leaping ability.

Greg had less luck using the 'corner defense', and blue bowl camo.

ZACH ROLLED IN

After a few intense set-ups and only a couple tries, Zach successfully rolled into the big bowl. Inspired, Dale followed it up by rolling out of the small and into the biggie. A couple more notches on a their belts.
None of us really cared to take pictures last night, but we'll try to get some next time.

OMN

This is the only picture I had of an old man skating the big bowl. Not sure if it was really night, I think it was more afternoon, in fact, it was the day before christmas last year. Anyway, yeah I know it's me, but I'm pretty stoked on the pic (which I have posted before). Baller took it, another old man skater that you will see in this spot in the future.
