My friend Quynh is moving to Hawaii, so she is being forced to downsize her belongings. Knowing that I'm a skate nerd she asked if I wanted 2 boxes of girls skate clipings and photos she had gathered over the years. Yes please!
"Wheel Girls" just might be my favorite so far. Now I have a pretty intensive collection, but somehow I missed this gem. Lindsi Thompson, Amy Caron, Ana Paula Negrao and Jessica Krause rocking some awesome gear. I seriously can't stop giggling to myself when I look at this. I'm sure they will all thank me for posting this on the internet for all the world to see.
I ordered a copy of the "As If, And What?" DVD a week or so ago and have been eagerly awaiting its arrival. Great job Jenna! Really motivating to see all the new girls from the UK. Order your copy here!
Also in my PO Box was a mystery package from my friends at Anti-Social containing Issue #1 of a girls skate zine called "Idlewood". More good stuff! I will get info on this and post soon.
Lacey was pretty upset that her flight to Tampa Am got cancelled due to bad weather in Texas, so to make up for it she was determined to be productive and film this weekend.
Ray and Lacey put their bodies on the line and came soooo close, but the double set won this weekend. Rematch?
Today I met up with Lois and her boyfriend Andy who are visiting from the UK. We started the day with a quick mini ramp session at Cara-Beth's house before going to check out Bucky Lasek's new backyard pool.
Cara-Beth Burnside, Lois Pendlebury and Mimi Knoop.
Mimi was in the zone and skating the monstrous 14' bowl well despite claiming she couldn't skate the mini ramp a couple hours earlier due to back pain. The backyard bowl is amazing and this photo doesn't do justice. Check out concretedisciples.com for more photos.
After grabbing a bite to eat Lois, Andy and I skated a tiny little park in Encinitas until the sun went down.
