Jake Shimabukuro plays "Bohemian Rhapsody" | Video on TED.com

Skating was great today! Sunny Sunday was sooooo good! Here's a random picture of the skatepark here in Bellingham, this is where I was for a good portion of the day...

 I have not posted anything music or art related yet, so now's a good time to start! I found this guy rippin up his ukele on TED.com. I have never heard anyone play a ukele like this before, check it out!

Which shoes to get? The never-ending question

     Here's a little update on my on my skateboardiing gear. So yesterday was beautiful-so of course I went straight to the skatepark after class. I ended up breaking my board. But no big deal, I broke it when it started to get really dark. So I picked up a fresh new board today, and it feels great!
     After skating the board today, I realized that now my feet don't feel so great, and I think it has a lot to do with the gaping holes in my shoes! I love the new griptape on a new board, but that stuff tears your shoes up like a blender. So here's some shoes I'm thinking about getting. Beautiful aren't they? :)

Update Time!

     Hey everyone, I just wanted to update you on some news about my good friend Shane. He lives in California working as a filmer and editor for skaters down there. He has his own website which he constantly updates with fresh clips of skating and all the other craziness he sees out in the streets of LA. Check it out! http://sk8rats.com/

California...How I miss it!

     These cold days have got me bummed lately. There is hardly any snow on Baker, and it's so wet and cold-that skateboarding is nearly impossible!
     Thinking about the warm weather in California-the best place for skateboarding gives me a glimmer of hope for my future. Here is a pic from my last visit to Santa Monica, California last August. Looks beautiful doesn't it? Sigh....

Surprise Pictures!

     Looks like someone was taking pics of me the night before our flight to Keystone! Our friend David let us stay at his place near Bellevue the night before our flight.
     I had no idea he had built an undercover mini ramp...good thing I keep my skateboard in my trunk at all times! These are not the best pics ever, but at least I have a few to show you...enjoy!

Keystone!

I just got back from an incredible trip to Keystone, Colorado! The snow was so light and fresh compared to the stuff we get around here. The insane number of runs on the mountain leave me wanting more! The altitude made some people a little sick, but everyone survived; one beer up there equals roughly two and a half, so good times were had by all! I didn't get a chance to get pictures, but hopefully I can get on up to our home mountain (Baker) and get a few shots!

Welcome! to Music/Art/Skate/Snow... ya know?

   Thanks for stopping by, here you will find posts by yours truly about the things I love most...skateboarding and snowboarding with a little music and art mixed in as well.  I want to get some pictures and videos up here soon, but be patient because my skateboard hates wet pavement, and while snowboarding I need to find someone who rides with a cam. Hopefully I'll be able to bring in some visual goodies for you in the next few weeks!
     That's all for the first post, I hope you liked it....I'm out!
