Another really nice product video from Gravity, this time for their 42″ Bamboo Spoon Nose. 42″ is a nice length for a longboard with a kicktail. Real manuverable size, but still pretty stable. The video really tells the tale. I’d get get it with this guy’s setup. Nice…

ABEC 11 77mm Freeride

Chris Chaput is my hero. Thanks for making such excellent wheels, Chris!

Kinda stoked about these wheels. Would rather he kept them in the Retro brand, so they’d come in other colors, but green is good.

Kinda can’t wait to wear out my current wheels so I can justify buying some of these.

If the 72mm Freerides are awesome (and they are, which is why I own 4 sets), an extra 5mm can only mean one thing: more awesome.

I see that these are currently available here, at longboardskater.com.

Went to see my friends Chris, John, and Pat’s band Deep Snapper tonight. Took a few pics (click through to find the photo set). Great show. Here’s link to a review of their new album, with a free mp3 attached.

A little rolling on the FSM

My friend Chris shot a little vid of me rolling on my Comet FSM. Weird, it is 40″ long, but really doesn’t look particularly big under me. I’m 6′ tall — I don’t think I’ll get any boards shorter than 40″. You can really see the deck’s deep rocker in this video. I love it.

And yes, this is that same hill. It is five minutes from my house, and thus super convenient. Also, the fact that there is no traffic there makes it a nice place to ride.

Gonna try to get out this weekend and film a couple of longboard trick tips – the oldschool kickflip and maybe a 360 board walk, on the Mini-Carve. Need a filmer.

The second video is Chris, as filmed by me. Please excuse my horrible brittish accent. We were just having a good time.
