Joey O'Brien "A Day of Skating Part 2"

Joey O'Brien's part from Jon Murphy's video "A Day of Skating Part 2". I can't imagine how good Joeys gonna be when he gets older. Hes only 15 or something. I could watch him do his boned out ollies and kickflips all day. I have some footage of him and hopefully he will have a section in our video "Framework" that were working on.

Philly Go Skateboarding Day 2010

Another awesome clip from Penny and Sabotage. I wish I could have been there this day but work ruins everything. Penny always has sick lines and I liked his front tail on the one rail. Joey Christoffers is getting so good. He kills it on handrails. The last crook and bluntslide were so perfect. That noseslide at the ghetto banks looked really scary too.

Ambler Skate Shop Re-Opening Video

Heres a sick video from Sabotage of the Ambler skateshop re-opening. Tore and Brian freakin kill it.



Also heres another sick clip from Sabotage of Tore skating the Warminster park.

Davis Trinh's Montage

Davis Trinh made a montage with some footage Kevin Nguyen and Davis filmed for a school project. Featuring John Provencher, Kevin Nguyen, Tyler Lindsay, Billy Simpson, Kevin Pham, Alex Robinson, Alex Cassidy, Jimmy Simpson, and Joey O'Brien.

Some real nice stuff in here. Joey O'Brien has some sick kickflips. Kevin Pham's frontside bigspin at little china bump was perfect. Chop learned switch nosegrinds out of nowhere and John Provencher's front smith on the ledge at black rock skatepark was so stylish.

Extra Tricks for "Framework" featuring Jimmy Simpson, Erik Mangal, John Provencher, Billy Simpson, Kevin Pham, Pat McCullion, Collin Welch, Alex "Chop" Robinson, Dan Trauger, Dustin Detweiler, Brian Panebianco, Mark Beidlingmaier, Joey Christoffers and Collin Bauder. 


Youtube won't let me access my Focus17 account anymore so I had to make a new account. Subscribe to my new account Framework17 for more videos coming soon. We are working on the trailer for our video "Framework" that should be up soon. 


I really like a lot of the tricks in this clip. Jimmy's front board on the pole jam line was sick. He did it probably 4 times too. John Provenchers back tail on the green bank was real nice. Recently I landed a lipslide manny fs 180 out on the planter at wedge so I threw the regular one in this clip. Erik's 5-0 bs 180 was clean but he did a few fs noseblunt slides across the stairs so I thought they kind of one upped the 5-0 trick. John's kickflip back tail on the granite ledge was first try. He's been killin it lately.  


I don't really skate the launch ramp but I always like filming other people skate it, especially Joey Christoffers and Collin Bauder. Collin's double grab and Joey's kickflip were really sick.


The rest of the clip are some more recent tricks. We took a trip to Abington Highschool recently. I saw Chris Cole skate the banks with ease in his Hot Wax 2 part, so I thought we could probably get some tricks on them. Well Chris Cole is amazing and he makes everything look easy. The banks were extremely hard to skate. Besides Kevin Pham and John Provencher's little rock to fakie tricks, Pat McCullion was the only one to get a trick. He did a nice kickflip to fakie on it. Collin Welch got so close to a sick 180 no comply. Chop tried to skate the bump to bar at the school but it was really sketchy. 


Check his bigflip on the bank at :27 seconds. The whole part is amazing. City Hall line down and up the stairs is ridiculous.



Tore setup the parking block on the cinder blocks that Erik and Chop skate in this clip. I dont know why it took us so long to think of doing that but its fun to skate. Eriks cab boardslide was perfect. Jimmy did a fs lipslide to bs blunt on the granite ledge. He accidently did the fs lipslide 180 out.


The clip of Dustin doing the bs 5-0 fs shuv on the bank was funny. I had seen Dustin do that trick on there before so I asked him if I could film it. The little kid riding the bike was cruising around the park all day getting in front of people haha. He was riding on the bank so I asked Dustin and and the kid to do a little doubles on the bank. In this clip he borrowed the little kids helmet haha. The one Dustin landed was perfect. The kid and Dustin were on the bank at the same time. We're saving that for "Framework."


We also took a trip to philly this past weekend. First we checked out mini baldi. This was our first time there. It is a pretty fun spot. It has a skinny ride up and its a pretty steep bank but its still fun. Tyler got a nice fs nosegrind and Chop got a perfect switch crook 180 into the bank. I landed on a fs 5-0 bs 180 out probably 10 times but I didn't ride away.


Check out John Kroesser's switch bluntslide at mini baldi at 1:00 in the trailer for Chris Mulhern's "This Time Tomorrow". It's a sick video. 


 


Then we went to this manny pad I always passed on broad street but never got to skate. It's curb height and it ends into a little bank surrounded by poles. Jimmy slammed really hard trying to pole jam one of the poles. Some guy that was in the street next to us made a point to put down his window and laugh extremely hard at Jimmy haha. 


After that we skated the bridge spot with the yellow barrier. I did a little switch rock on it and Chop did a regular one. Tyler got really close to a feeble on it but didn't ride away. The triangle ledges are right next to the barrier spot. Chop fs nose grinded it pretty easily so he tried to nosegrind fs 180 it. He basically learned the trick while we filmed it. After a little bit he did a real nice one. 


Check out Will Wresilo's hurricane on the yellow barrier in his welcome video to Pusher wheels. I really don't know how people skate that thing. His Dustbowls ender noseblunt is insane. Collin and Joey slammed pretty hard on that thing a while ago.
