Today is the day everyone has been waiting for! The official release date for Dinosaur Jr’s new album I Bet On Sky. I’m not sure how this isn’t a national holiday, but make sure you get to the record store today and buy it! Unless of course you’re like me and preordered a fabulous deluxe package!

I hope this shows up in the mail today! Yippee!

skate journal: flatground rollercoaster behind creekside (Sept 17, 2012)

Posted in Skate Journal on September 18th, 2012 by corpo

I went to skate flat in front of the house for a bit, but there was a lot of traffic and I didn’t feel like dodging it. So I brought a broom and went behind the school with Ollie. He shot hoops while I skated. I had put some new super 52s on for multiple reasons. First, the wheels were old, second, my bearings sucked and I replaced most of them with some old ceramics I had, and third, the new graphics are gonna ship this week so I best get rid of the old ones. Ha. Anyways I was sucking for a long time. Struggling so bad and feeling that arthritis hot pocket feeling a lot. I was trying to set a record for the most tricks not landed when Liz came to join Ollie playing basketball. Maybe just the presence of her awesomeness made me start landing stuff. I still struggled a bit, but my bag of landed tricks got pretty deep. Kickflip, fakie flip, back shove, front shove, f/s halfcab bigspin, heelflip, halfcab flip, f/s halfcab flip, treflip, fakie bigflip, b/s flip and nollie treflip. I hucked quite a few other tricks too like sw f/s flip and sw flip that I didn’t get very close to, but had fun trying.
