Notes Of A Greasy Young Man: High Schoolin’

I’ve been bombing hills all of high school—hitting races, filming videos, going on skate trips, and other adventures of that sort. For example, I’m writing this month’s Wheelbase column from the backseat of the PDX Skate Bus—heading to Santa Barbara on a six day skate trip. My other schoolmates have 2 days left until break and are probably sitting at home on Facebook procrastinating on that project due tomorrow. Good thing I turned my project in this morning! Now, I’m chilling with the homies, headed to a beautiful part of California for a little R&R.

There were some things I noticed during those sessions that I would never forget. If you’ve seen em skate you know what I mean: Read More
Notes Of A Greasy Young Man: West Coast Assault

I arrived in Laguna Beach with a couple other buddies sometime in late July. Earlier that day Fernando Yuppie, my teammate and very good Brazilian friend, landed at LAX. We met in Laguna Beach the same night and instantly knew some epic shit was about to go down throughout the next month. Our plan was the following: skate, film, go to Maryhill, take some photos with this old pro-skater-burnout named Marcus, grease on the bitties of some treasured California beach towns, and go to NorCal to chill with Cliff Coleman. All of the former worked out quite nicely, maybe except for the bitty part. . . Read More
