Imagine you're chilling with your bros and wanting to watch The Shep Dawgs Vol. 4 video but your friend's dvd player is possessed and only wants to play the bonus section. This is what happened to myself and a few usual suspects the other night. It seemed all of the technology that surrounded us decided to go on strike when we thought we needed it most. But alas, our hopes were re-ignited because we were able to make the dvd work with a combination of a "hot-breath-to-disc-wipe-down" and by continually draining the demon player of it's life then quickly resurrecting it and then repeating the process a few more times. Everything seemed to be "coming up Milhouse" until Myk's Big Screen decided it wanted to freeze frame whilst teasing us with the continued sound of Shep Dawg shreddery. Myk mentioned that this had started to become a regular occurrence so he thought it best to retire the beast of a TV. But being the recycling and re-purposing rats that we all are, we just couldn't let the TV go to waste at the dumps. The natural response was, "Let's skate the fucking thing!" So we shredded the fuck out of it for a solid week and even dissected it to recover some lenses from the projector inside of it. I didn't have too much footy of the TV shreddage but if you head over to Skinner's insta page, he's got some insta WEEDMOUNTAIN clips to recap the KILLING of MYK & COMMANDER'S TV. The moral of the story is KILL YOUR TELEVISION & RIDE YOUR SKATEBOARD(on it). Below are some random photos from around Oakland and Rosa and a Twerk edit from days that roll into one.

A few months back I decided to venture out to the City to finally skate the legendary Fort Miley. This was back when Storm and I had coinciding days off so I hit em up on a Monday and we were out! We hit up Soma park to warm up first because Storm hadn't been yet. We had a bit of trouble getting to Fort Miley due to Siri being a punk ass bitch and constantly leading me astray with her horrible directions. Luckily with a few U-turns and a cherry parking spot near the beach, the search was finally over. We had made it to Land's End, and it was glorious! It was like a fucking shredical dream!We get there and it is empty, the sun was out and the conditions were ripe for the shred! We shredded for hours, stacking as many gopro clips as we could before we were all shredded out. All in all, it was a successful mission out to a legendary SF spot and I can't wait to go back!
A few months back some of the TRAPBOYZ and I journeyed down to the Marin to brave the cold. We decided to keep things mellow and check out Corte Madera's pre-fab skate park since it was freezing cold out. This park is really basic but also really fucking fun. It has everything you'd want to skate with the exception of any gaps or stairs. Since I was deep in a de-crustive state, I decided to just sit back and document the tech carnage that went down on the little box at the park. Gene and Yung Maxy are something else on a shred sled. Both have grinds for days and consistency to boot. It wasn't long before these 2 filled up the GB on my phone with some NBD ledge hammers. De-CRUST & ENJOY!
