Frisbeeing Gone Wrong

2011-12-02T18:48:00.000-08:00

Disc golf tends to be more dangerous than we had all thought, unfortunately for Brandon the frisbee wasn't feelin it today and got him pretty good. Phone-ography: Michael Marques

2011-12-01T21:38:00.000-08:00

Today was nice because for once in a good minute, people left the parking lot, kicked it and skated just like old times.

A Better Time

2010-06-22T23:01:00.000-07:00

Now that people are older and are on to different things, Veterans park isn't the same as it was when friends were close and skating was like the air we breathe. Now a days, it seems like the drug aspect of life is takin over, friends aren't as close, and skating is falling behind... but who knows everyone has their own opinion.

2010-05-09T08:33:00.000-07:00

It's amazing that I've never been to L.A. to skate, being how simple and cheap it is to get there. And i don't understand how people don't really want to skate unless someone's filming them. It's unessential. Your skateboard, good company, and a good outlook alone will let you have the time of your life.

We took the metro to downtown. You'll find interesting people on that thing.

Hello L.A. We're going to be good friends.

We went to this taco shop that was supposedly number one, though the lady wasn't very persuasive, we took it to go and headed to this view that you've maybe seen from 500 Days of Summer. This city has it all.

MOCA

The Guggenheim museum

Culture

We took a bus back to the metro and found some Asian guys sleeping and i couldn't resist. I'll see you soon L.A. and if you didn't go with us this time, definitely go next time without hesitation.

For better quality pictures of our little trip to the city, go to Izzy's blog. He'll get some pictures up soon.
