Heres clip #1 of some summer footage that Kevin Nguyen filmed while he was out skating with everybody. I like kevins clips cause its not always about how hard the trick is its just what happens when were out skating on a regular day. It reminds me of when I was younger skating around Souderton and just filming your friends and having fun.

I love the part where kevin is watching pat do his line and is cheering the whole time haha. Yes Davis accidently put kevins manny shuv in there twice but who cares haha. Chops rail at the end is no joke. That was really scary looking. It has a skinny shitty sidewalk ride up and a ledge right next to it. He made it look easy.

Extra Tricks (10/22-25/09)
Tuesday I got the new Flip video "Extremely Sorry" from the berrics. Luckily I got a one of the ones autographed by Geoff Rowley, I have always been a big fan of him since I started skating. The intro animations are kind of stupid and I think the little graphics and animations they put in Shane Cross part was a little distracting but besides that the skating was awesome and its definitely worth seeing.
Friday me and jim skated wedge for a while before I went to work.
Saturday it rained all day. Sunday the 25th we started out at wedge. It was myself, Erik Mangal, Zach Panebianco, Collin Welch, Jeff Colombo, Ryan Kuhns, Dylan Hondros, Pat McCullion and Joey Christoffers. Dylan took us to the fedex gap. There were so many close tricks. Zach landed on a sick bs bigflip and got real close to nollie backside flip. Joey Christoffers landed on fs flip a few times and then he found this random plastic movable 2 stair and put that at the end of the gap to make it even longer. Dylan landed on the nicest hardflip probably 4 or 5 times.
Then we went to the Moes gap that Joey Christoffers kickflipped. Zach Panebianco decided to skate the rail. He got a nice front board and I got to use my new fisheye. After that me and Pat McCullion went to the church manny pad near wedge. Pat got a real nice inward heel manny. Then we went back to wedge for a while.
Heres a clip of some of the warm up tricks and close tricks at the fedex gap. I felt so bad for Dylan he had it so many times. Were gonna go back soon and hopefully we will have more success. Featuring Joey Christoffers, Zach Panebianco and Dylan Hondros
Heres a little montage Davis Trinh put together of some of his friends. Featuring Davis Trinh, Devon Russell, Mikey Obrien, Joey Obrien,Billy Simpson, Kevin Nguyen, Kevin Pham and few of Davis' other friends.

Extra Tricks (10/10-11-18/09)
Friday me and jim went to Ayers Promotions. New T shirts are coming soon.
Saturday the 10th we skated wedge all day, we had a good time. Jimmy got a nice 2 trick line with some wallie tricks. Joey Obrien was off doing some crazy early grab stuff off the blue quaterpipe. Erik Mangal and Joey Christoffers had a sick game of skate on the ledges. Erik got a nice line on the small ledge and the white bench.
Sunday the 11th Me, Kevin Pham and Tyler Lindsay went to Baldi Middle School. We didnt get any tricks there but we met some cool people. Steve Durante was there and a few of his friends from Italy were there. They couldnt have been nicer. One of the guys named Diego gave Kevin wheels and bearings that were pretty much brand new. His other friend Franco was a real nice guy too. Steve Durante got really close to nollie heelflip nosegrind on one of the ledges.
Heres Steve Durante part from Habitat's "Inhabitants". So sick!
Later on we went to the green banks. Tyler got a nice front tail to fakie. I got a back bluntslide 270 and Kevin got a front bluntslide 270. Overall it was a fun weekend of skating.
Me gettin gnarly at baldi. Thanks Kevin!

I didnt think we would be skating at all on Sunday the 18th but the rain finally stopped and Erik Mangal invited me to come with him and Brian Panebianco to some spots. We started out at this tennis court type place in Ambler. They had a nice Eric Koston box and a flat bar. Erik and Brian killed it.
After that we went to the Wissahickon highschool to skate the benches. Erik got a nice bs noseslide 270 shuv and Brian went through a bunch of tricks. Collin Welch and Kitrell Norman met up with us there.
From there Brian took us to this sick ledge spot where you can skate the stairs sideways. It grinded and slid real nice. Collin got a bs 5-0 shuv out, Brian got a perfect front blunt to fakie and back blunt to fakie and Erik got a bs 5-0 bs 180 out and sick noseblunt slide to regular and fakie. Of course I missed Brian's back blunt to fakie cause I suck.
After that we headed to Warminster skatepark. I had never been there before. Its a pretty fun park. I love the long manny pad/boxes and the flatbar was really fun. I learned back blunts on the flatbar and erik learned front blunts. Collin Welch has the nicest fs salads on it. Brian was doing so many good lines and ledge tricks but I got to caught up skating to film anything.
Heres a clip Ryan Higgins Filmed of Brian at Warminster park. The front tail 270 is ridiculous. Its not a mini table thats a legit picnic table.
I just got a new fisheye and I couldnt see the sun shade thing in the viewfinder but you can see it when you upload footage. Im gonna fix it and get it right for the next time we film.

"Focus" Introduction
This is the intro to our second video "Focus" from 2006. Jimmy Edited it and me and him filmed it. I always liked jimmy's style of editing. I remember we didnt have any program that could make good text so jimmy had to write it out frame by frame take photos. I thought he did a really good job. All of the people in "Focus" were people I grew up skating with. There were a lot of good times making this video.

Roslyn Skatepark (9/25-27/09)
Friday Me and Jimmy Skated wedge. I got a grind/manny trick combo on the planter that I was pretty siked about. Jimmy got a good wallie line but were gonna refilm it cause he didnt like the way he landed. Later Nate Walsh and Erik Mangal came and we skated for a little.
Saturday we went to Roslyn skatepark. It was myself, Alex Robinson, Herb Adis, Kevin Pham, Kenny Killian and Pat McCullion. We got there at 11 but the guy who was supposed to open the park didnt show up. So we had to wait til 3 when the other guy came. We had a great time. The park is really fun, definitely worth the 40 minute drive.
Everybody was killin it. KK was doing some nice lines around the park and was skating the tall quarterpipe like it was nothing. Kevin Pham got a bunch of sick tricks over the hip. Pat McCullion was doing a crazy stuff over the hip and doing all kinds of tech stuff around the park. I got a bs 5-0 to fakie on the brick bank that I was pretty happy with. There was a younger kid there that had the cleanest style and was skating real good all day. We didnt know his name but he had a Chocolate shirt on so we called him Chocolate the whole day. He had the most styled out ollies over the nipple. Chop was killing it all over the place. He skated everything. My personal favorites were Chops ollie into the deep end of the bowl that I made him do twice haha and Kevin's hardflip revert on the hip.
Sunday it rained all day so me, Kyle Schmidt and John Provencher skated Collin Fegals mini. It was fun and it was good seeing John out skating again.
Heres a Clip from Roslyn Featuring Kenny Killian, Alex Robinson, Kevin Pham, Chocolate and Pat McCullion.

Extra Tricks (10/3-4/09)
Saturday me, my brother Jimmy, Kevin Pham, Herb, Kenny Killian, Kevin Nguyen and Davis Trinh started out the day at the little hubba in Harleysville. We tried to fill the crack earlier in the week it wasnt dry yet. That stuff takes so long. We had a good sesh on the little manny pad there. Jimmy got fs 180 revert first try. Nice!
After that we headed over to wedge where a bunch of people were skating. Erik got a switch nosemanny fakie flip out first try on the marble pad! Jimmy was getting perfect switch wallies on the barrier and was off doing random stuff all day haha. KK got a perfect fs lipslide across the planter. Brian Panebianco got a real sick trick on the white bench and a nice nollie fs 180 over the trashcan off the kicker.
Sunday I wanted to go to New York with a bunch of guys but I got back to late. I was kind of bummed but Me, Tyler Lindsay and Chop had a fun day skating around town anyways. We started the day off at wedge. Tyler got the nicest wallie bs 180 on the orange barrier.
Then we headed over to China bump. Chop landed on a sick fs heelflip. Ive never even seen him do it on the ground haha. were gonna go back and film that.
Then we went to the merck banks. Tyler was getting close to bluntslide on the big side and I got a bs 5-0 revert. Chop got a nice ollie over the 7 stair rail.
After that we spot searched around Ambler. We found this sick gap that was covered in these rocks. Chop got a real nice ollie over it. After that we called it a day. Overall a good weekend of skating.
Heres a clip of some extra tricks and random stuff
featuring Tore Bevivino, Zach Panebianco, Jimmy Simpson, Erik Mangal, Alex Robinson and Brian Panebianco. Tore is crazy how consistent he is with everything you can think of. I love when Brian gets denied on the high five hahah.
