So yesterday I decided to go skate Orlando skate park. (see pictures) It was a really fun park that you could just cruise allllll day in.
After that I finally got to skate at Cocoa Beach skate park! I can honestly say that this park is my favorite out of all of the concrete parks I've ever skated (and I've skated a good amount of concrete parks). I had a really fun session with fellow north east rippers Nolan Munroe, Zack Rose and Paul from Pioneers. A couple of cool Washington guys, Mike and Sky were there too. This park has amazing flow and perfect transitions in the small section and really steep transitions in the pool coping-ed deep end. Everyone was throwing down some heavy tricks, Nolan was going upside-down in the cradle, Zack was boosting huge airs, I was doing crail slides in the deep bowl, and local Z-flex ripper Kieth was launching at least 7ft out. If you ever get the chance to skate this park, you should definitley go skate it, you won't regret it.
Ok I can't sit still any longer I'm going to go skate.

Florida!




Hey! The 2008 World Cup skateboarding series is about to start!


I'm in Florida for the Florida Bowl Riders contest and I can't tell you how good it is to finally see the ground again instead of being surrounded by 5ft snow banks! I've never been to Florida before so I'm pretty excited to be here. The contest is this weekend at the Cocoa Beach skatepark. I went over to the park this morning for the early bird special, but the park doesn't open till 4PM! Now I don't know about you guys, but for me the urge to skate definitley takes over way earlier than that.


I mean look at this park!

Ok well I have to go skate something somewhere before I lose my mind, I'll keep you guys updated!
