yesterday... Little 5, Duncan Creek, Zion, Watkinsville Ramp

yesterday was a good road day... starbucks morning and the blog and the twitter and the facebook...
...then off to Little 5 points to visit with Thomas Taylor at Stratosphere...

from there, we hit the road, got some food... what was it? oh yeah five dollar footlongs...

We hit Duncan Creek, where there was the usual compliment of scooters and kids on bikes clogging up the strange "street course". Old Lew carved the big bowl with Will Boatwright and crazy Dale for a few hours there. Wes, Native, Ben and Sunshine played around on the rest of the stuff... until we finished the session by converging on the congested street course thingy... we started whooping and hollering as we dove into the chaos, and things cleared out nice enough for josh to session the big old jersey wall with some blunts and rocks and an air out or two.

from there we headed about an hour away to the Watkinsville/Athens area... That's out there in the country. Man, the hospitality was WARM! Zion had us in for free, and we had a major fun session there. I mean, the stoke was on.
Then the free pizza arrived! This Zion park, run by Tami, Mamie, and Bo Maddox, let us skate free, then fed us pizza... We really enjoyed the company of Old School, who is also named Pancake... and the kid who broke his ankle a while ago.

Then we were over to the Watkinsville Ramp... a locals only keypark that houses one very beautiful vert ramp. The session was already hot when we got there, and we were already a little used, but the crew threw it down and held it down for a good few hours there.

As we roll out of bed, we are stoked that we feel so good. here's a tip, kids, don't ruin yourself. Skate every day. Keep it straight.

Our man Mike Mills held it down on the ramp.
Shane Hicks, our country boy rider, threw it down. maaas.
jaimie, friend of Fickle, is insane and will probably be institutionalized for the criminal acts he committed on that ramp. Let's hope there were no fbi agents around.

So we're grinding down some chicken sandwiches and heading out.

By the way, we aren't posting vids because there's just no time to edit crap up... we'll grab something short today for you. Maybe Thomas Taylor defining style at Mountain park.

Remember that our boards are really good, and that's what we're about. Go get one. The Galaxie is stocked...
