Better sign up soon. Two age divisions, and plenty of potential for something gnarly. You have to at least attend to see what obstacle Ray and company come up with. $5 to enter, winner walks away with a $100 and product. Best trick walks away with $50 courtesy of American Icon Wheel Co. Yet another well put together event by the good folks at Kingpin.
This montage was pretty entertaining. Daniel Brooks has officially locked down Stockton as the guy to see about filming. The guy has really put up a lot of work and is quickly establishing pretty impressive portfolio.
This montage has all the and up and coming heads as well as a few of the OG's. In my humble opinion Tyler may have had the trick of the montage. That dude seriously killed of the lincoln chain. How the hell do you do that???? Nate Heselton's hardflip bs 5-0 was pretty impressive as well.
Jesse was telling me awhile back that he'd participated at a contest at the epic skatepark. I was a little surprised when i watched this footy, because I've never seen Jesse skate any type of hubba (pre-fab or not). No matter what, Jesse is usually pretty impressive to watch whether it be on a ledge, stairs, rail etc.
Thanks again to Daniel Brooks for the footy! speaking of D. Brooks, a riding shotgun part is in the works with Daniel's homie Max. If you don't know who max is, I tell you the dude is super impressive. We should have that riding shotgun section up and live pretty soon!
BACK TO THE BUSINESS AT HAND... Jesse rips, he's doing his thing at epic, enjoy!
Oh yeah, I was doing some searching on the internet and found this.... I so stoked right now!!!! I know you guys didn't forget about this.
This guy has been killing it this year. The little dude has footage from almost everyone! Now the dude is getting it in with a full-on video part? Rumor also has it that the guy is next in line to join the ranks at the Daily Grind. ahhh I remember it like it was yesterday, I would jerk this dude around and make him charge my camera equipment, and now the dude is getting a part. Aside from skateboarding, Jeremiah is great human being as is always all smiles. You don't need much more than that in life! Riding Shotgun proudly presents.... RIDING SHOTGUN WITH JEREMIAH KAMSTRA!
I've been telling you guys this entire year that Ant Laniohan is the dude to watch out for this year. Congrats to Anthony for winning The Lord of the Lines Contest in Tracy on Saturday. From what I hear, Anthony won the comp with a line that included a nosegrind nollie flip, bs crook, and a fs 5-o to switch crook, cab out!
I expect big things from A. Laniohan in 09!
oh yeah...
Honorable mention to riding shotgun co-captain Kenny Osborne for snagging an unofficial third place at the lord of the lines contest. Another honorable mention goes out to Jesse Viera who snagged a second place finish in his division.
I can honestly say this has been the most exciting project to work on so far. When filming for any type of skateboarding, it's usually synonymous with stress and lots of similar things that result in anger. With Austin, not so much. This kid showed up to the park with a smile from ear to ear, and a trick bag deeper than people twice his age. This kid has it all; trick selection, spot selection, attitude, and charisma. WE PRESENT TO YOU.... RIDING SHOTGUN WITH AUSTIN TECZON!
It must be video season in stockton, because we got another trailer out! The daily grind released this trailer for their very first video project, entitled, "The Daily Grind Video." There are going to be some bangers going down for sure. Still looking forward to parts from Jimmy Firestone and Nate Heselton myself. I'm sure everybody has some quality footy coming out!
