lunchbreak qp

skateboarding on your lunch break is always a great addition to the day


better than a turkey sandwich


mike came over and got a taste of the action

blurrrrrryyyggghh

had to go on and git up to memphis to see binger before he heads back to the northwest. was good to see the not-so-lil fella, he's probably grown a foot since i last seen him and lost a tooth or two, didn't think he could possibly gain more character but i suppose portland's been good to him. stopped at altown to meet up with the crew, watched a quick session, these are the pics. i know they are blurry but i don't give a fuck. if u don't like them, go on and take your own damn pics..now GIT!!!

binger pops an ollie over the new lip, i noticed it's been getting worked... nice!


wrex and his ever stylish back smith


binger - i think this was a back smith with a grab, it went by fast and i forget


wrex backside disaster


wrex sweeps the to-vert-lip


wrex front rock


taylor crail

sweet threads

i love the day

that we found this and it always brings a smile to my face when we go...

donating will make you cool

as you've probably seen or heard, altown II is underway full force. one qp is already done pretty much and the forms for the next phase are underway. trife street guys we all know and respect are constantly hard at work to build something to skate, taking their destiny into their own hands.

if you love trife street and/or concrete to skate, take a few minutes to donate a few bucks. instead of going out and getting that big mac meal, spend it on a bag of crete, save your boobly ass and live longer. do it!! people will think you are really cool and/or nice and possibly will want to skate with you.
click here to donate to altown deuce

the power of the bulge

after a quick rad testrun session and major props on the previous weekend's work, we assessed the situation


everyone was working hard while bambei texts about his labyrinth stats





the sweet crete mixed to perfection


once the crete is mixed, it's time to get to packing and smoothing it out


a little while later....


it's pretty rough to add concrete to a vertical situation where existing concrete is lurking. but with plenty of work, the two blended out nicely.


the beautiful lip

he rules!!


skate and create always ripping diy or die. he rules so hard it makes other people sick!

bakerface



baker rules, he's got a diy crew started of his own in az... this looks rad!! you can always count on hunter to get something going, good luck brothers!!

great job!


our friends in little rock have been busy! only thing wrong here is that i have not lifted a finger to help with this. can't wait to see our little rock friends again and catch a fun time.

wallride!

Great Morning....


I got rained out on the concrete work today, and was kinda' bummed to not get the Q/P finished. I went to check my e-mail and received a message that made me smile. Here's what it said...





Dear Wrex, Trey has had a rough couple weeks battling pneumonia, and two weeks prior, a stomach flu. So tonight after getting home from urgent care, I was laying with him reading the comments on his page, and I read him yours. He looked at me and said,"Mom, I really like Wrex". It was neat!! He had just had an IV in his arm the last three hours and had a huge smile on his face when he said that. I just had to share this with you. Thanx for the support you and Kim give him!!


-Stacy
Above is a picture of Trey winning the high air contest at Gromfest, with his cash prize in hand!! "Yeah Trey!!!"

we kicked ass

someday it would be nice to sleep in but there's too much to do, rad stuff to skate, people to see and things to create, damn, see how i did that. memphis continues to save us from dying of skate boredom.

trife crew worked all day saturday to get the backfill started on what will be one of the smoothest diy qps to ever exist. if you think yours is better, take us to it.


one of the best things that comes along with DIY is the stuff you learn. i've been watching wrex create some rad stuff, and this tool is probably one of the coolest i've ever witnessed being used in my entire life. the ramshot. as powerful as a 22 - which i overheard bambei say - a 22 can travel over a mile.


"ow, my ears"


once we got the backfill held in with the fencing and the mesh up, the next step was to get the concrete line straight for the bottom lip of the qp - diamond blades + PBR to keep the blade cool = gettin it done.


the neighbor was up bright and early on his way to get beer until he realized it was sunday as taylor was busting out the prepped concrete to get the line straight.


the result of the blade and sledgehammer


gathered up some funds and put home depot to work with another load of concrete


progress shots, as the day went on, the crew switched up duties from packing, mixing, pouring, finishing, general shittalking and heckling until the day is done around 5 or so





some new faces showed up and a bet was made that if taylor ollied the gap, the new faces would donate $20 - bambei made it, fuckers need to pay up. (that in no way is meant to hurt someone's feelings, but damn this was sick!)


various work shots and shots of the sick spot they picked out...




where we finished... a long day, but so much fun. can't wait to work on the next thing at altown...


oh wait, what's that in the distance? um yah i have no idea what happened here. shred it!




even more pics to come once i find them.
