burning in hell






its been exactly a month since i landed in this hell hole and i can tell you its been everything but hell.   Since arriving i've been furying but that is to be expected after feeling physically detained in my country due to injury, and the associated restlessness, but it proved to be a good thing as i was, and still am, fresh and down for GSD, which i was not during aforementioned detention.  

Canada is great, as great as i recall and i'm enjoying the forever widening sample that comes with transience and an expanding bunch of homies who also wanna gsd.   Yates has gone home :(  so now getting shit done is entirely my responsiblity.... but unlike home i wake up in the am.

i miss Brisbane, it's continuing to be one of the better cities i've sampled.. obviously i've the home town bias but one can't deny experience, plus my motorbike is there and a world alongside skating and shooting it.

'sure i like this photo, it's probably one of the prettier skate photos i've ever shot, however my love for it is not visual, but for that cheeky fella out the front, as today i found out that, this photo is Striker's first double spread and it makes me so stoked because i concluded a long time ago that this man wielded the hammer that was used in the construction of this sport's modernisation, which inturn resulted in my livelihood, which i enjoy very muchly. a tiny repayment for a lifelong supply of homies and stoke, yehowow Strike!'

conoor ferguson, it makes me so stoked to think that a year and a half ago he was not very well known, now he's reigning [probably 2x] world junior champ and a fortnight ago he took 2nd in opens at Kozakov. 


and i'll tell you this, the fellow down below is pokey, on of the dudes behind Monkey Pig- a skate family of australia OGs from the gold coast..  Monkey Pig is so rad, dudes i'll forever enjoy lurking with.
