We've been having some good skate trips lately. We checked out the Great Valley rails recently. After about an hour trying to find them in the wrong industrial park we finally found them. Everybody was killin it, especially Cory Quigley. John Provencher got a front board down it. Pretty sick for his first handrail. Alex Subers got the cleanest front board shuv down it. Cory rifled off tricks. He got a front board, front feeble, then a bs feeble, then a bs crook and threw in a bs 5050 just for fun. Chop was trying a back lip the whole time. He landed one where the board came completely off his feet. After skating there for about a half hour or so we could see the security guard coming from down the parking lot, so we knew we could get a few more tries in. Right as the security guard finally got to us chop landed his back lip. It worked out perfect.

Another good session we had was a random little trip to the Quakertown flatspots, where we used to 3 or 4 years ago. Jimmy and Pat Owens killed it in their "Creatures of Habit" parts. There used to be a barrier there that we would all skate but that got taken away. So randomly, one day before I had work we got up early and borrowed the barrier from wedgewood and brought it to quakertown. John Provencher got a really stylish back tail to fakie on it. Chop got a nice bs smith and Pat McCullion did a ridiculous front nose bigspin out. I rarely see people do that trick and he did it perfect. By the time we got were done skating it it was like 11:30 and we still had time to skate wedge. It was a productive day.

Another good trip we went on was to the fish banks in Conshocken. First we tried to skate the kinked ledges in plymouth meeting. As we were getting kicked out Tore almost did a front blunt first try. A few more tries he would've had it. After that we headed to the fish banks in Conshohoken. Tore and Pat McCullion killed it. Pat did a bs 180 over the gap and Tore did the sickest tre flip to fakie.

We had a memorable skate day in philly recently. It was me, Cory Quigley, Alex Subers, Brian Panebianco and Tore Bevivino. We went straight to the ghetto banks. Tore handled business and put down an insane trick over the bank that Reynolds fakie flipped in his Emerica part at 1:52. Then we went to Temple and Penny was trying to switch crook the hubba. We got kicked out before he could get it. Then we went to the Temple Hospital rail that Jake Johnson did a switch flip back tail on as his last trick in this part. Cory did a nice bs 5050 on it and got pretty close to a bs crook. Then Tore, Alex and Cory left and me and Penny went to City Hall. Penny got a nice line down the 6 and a trick on the bench.

Another good day we had was in Harleysville. We started at the bump to grass gap. Besides the few tricks in the clip Joey O'Brien did a perfect tre flip over the gap. Joey Paone got close to a varial heelflip probably 6 times.

After that we went to the little Harleysville hubba. Chop got as close as you could to a front noseblunt without riding away. Joey O'Brien did a bs smith  4 or 5 times til he got it the way he wanted. Cory Quigley killed it. He got a back lip right away and then kickflip 5050'd it. I thought that was good enough but he got a kickflip 5-0 too. Overall a good day.

NOPE

Chop, Kevin Pham and Tyler Lindsay tried to make a video about three or four years ago called "Nope". It never really got finished so they put up a little montage of what they had. Kevin Nguyen is always filming with his little pocket camera and had a bunch of footage piling up of everybody, so the guys decided to finish Nope with his footage and stuff Davis Trinh filmed. Definitely hyped to see this one. Kevin has a lot of good stuff and Davis just got a new camera.

Heres the new Nope trailer Featuring Alex Robinson, John Provencher, Cory Quigley and Kevin Pham. Also featuring Joey O"Brien, Billy Simpson, Alex Subers and Jimmy Simpson. Edited by Davis Trinh and Filmed by Kevin Nguyen. Additional filming by Davis Trinh. The end is hilarious.
