BBQ at Russ's



Russ was havin' a Mexican-American bbq and the food was plenty. We bought 12 pounds of meat.

Frisco...



Arrived at frisco somewhere around noon. Potrero park was the place to get some rollin' done. The park is build by dreamland and has one of the best surface i have ever skated.



The street/flow section...The park is build on a slope of a hill. From the bowl above you go down fast and take a left or right at the tranny-wall at the back of the park.



Dudes i met in frisco. From left: Fransesco and Chris. We're hangin out at twin Peaks here



Twin Peaks view. The big street going up trough the downtown city is Market street.



Dudes took me to 3rd and Army to skate some d.i.y. but the city took care of that.



In the afternoon we went to some other dude's place to have a little rooftop-bbq.

San Jose Skatepark



On my way to San Fransisco i stopped at San Jose's newest skatepark. This park is huge. One of the biggest of California. I had to sign a waiver and pay 5 bucks to get in and wear a helmet when skating.



The mouth of the beast gaping in front of me...Just roll in and see what happens.



Flow bowl with huge vert wall.



Cradle, roll-in stuf, hips, corners and then some...

Redwood Forrest and Ben lomond skatepark



We went to Redwood Forrest to take a look at some huge trees. I love it out here... Takin' it easy...Sunshine...The smell of pine trees...



This is me with 'The father of the forrest' the oldest tree around.



This is 'Mother of he forrest' giving birth.



After Redwoods it was time to lay down som' good ol' laybacks at Ben Lomond Skatepark. You can see by my face i'm taking it pretty serious.



Andrew busts a 50 around the hip.



Here's Ann about to carve the deep end.

Tim Brauch Memorial Skatepark (Scotts Valley)



Andrew and i took it to Scotts Valley to roll around at Tim Brauch Memorial.
Nice flow/street section... We've had the park for ourselfs, as the above picture oh so clearly illustrates.



Good bowl section either... There was a heatwave in Cali at the time i took this photo. Probably the reason why the park was deserted.
