Eric and Matt were the guys behind Pat Hickey’s intro as well as some other clips and animations in Null And Void. Go check out their new independent film and support the underground!ps – The Rynull Sheckert update was clearly an attempt at an April Fools Day joke.

skate journal: Valmont with Jason (April 8)

Posted in Skate Journal on April 9th, 2009 by corpo

Jason and I hit up Valmont for about an hour and we were both pretty tired.   At first I couldn’t even ollie worth a crap.  I was pretty sore from jumping over that ash tray a ton the night before.  The ledge was pretty wrecked too.  Looks like it got hit by a truck and a chunk is missing from the lower part.  Ugh.  After awhile I was almost skating decent.  It helped that I had “When We Were Alive” stuck in my head.  That song hyped me up so much that I would sometimes push too fast to hit the ledge.  This is me we’re talking about, so it was probably 7 miles an hour instead of 5, but it was fast for me.  I didn’t land much but I ollied up onto the ledge at the last set of cracks which is almost a board length tall and I did some fast front 50s.  Fun night, wish I had more energy.
