As I wait for my breakfast, Here's some random flicks...

To those who don't know, I LOVE Rage Against The Machine!!.. I hustled a job at Big Day Out earlier in the year. Best job ever. Drove around in a golf cart pretty much the whole time. When I knocked off work at about 2, met up with all the boyz and got buckwild. RATM was coming on at 9.30. But to my disappointment, all I have memory of was daylight, then waking up in bed at home with a headache. I got kicked out. I couldn't remember or understand why until I saw this photo. I'm sure this is why I was the only one that got kicked out of Big Day Out.

Yazeed chillin?..or passed out?.. who knows..

Karmen..what are you doing here?..haha

Ma-ma-mates...

Simo is fine..

2008-05-08T13:09:00.003+08:00

To those of you who don't already know. Simo got committed a couple weekends ago. He was in the hospital for 3 days. Fractured his skull. Couldn't hear out of his right ear and can't smell or taste til today. He's gettin it all back, but slowly. The RADKIDS had a Downhill Jam in East Perth that was good times almost all round. Meataxe won with 12.13 seconds. I stole these photos from swinhoe. Its a dope site with killer photos! Great shots man.

This obviously is one of my 'artistic' photos. Notice the aperture and white balance and focus on it.

Simo's fine now. Cooked us a casserole last night. it wasn't that bad for someone that can't smell or taste properly.

Seriously..

2008-05-04T15:25:00.003+08:00

Ok.. Updates are cominnnnn.....

Back on line..

2008-03-28T08:31:00.002+08:00

Skateboardings!!

2007-06-27T17:52:00.000+08:00

2 posts in 1 day. This has to be a record. This was the Momentum Crew skateboardings at Gosnells skatepark a couple weekends ago. If you look closely, you could spot me in the background...

Where did it all go wrong?

2007-06-27T08:46:00.000+08:00

Over the past couple months I've been busy as hell to get shit going in my life. I wasn't gonna post anything til I get my new camera but this has to be seen by everyone. I've had many run-ins with the 'police' when I'm skateboarding or just doing my own thing. I don't think I've ever been impressed or proud of the 'police' that are supposed to 'protect and serve' us.

What is a Police Officer / Cop / Pig / Fuckface?
A police officer is a warranted employee of a police service. Among the responsibilities of a police officer are to maintain public order, prevent and detect crime and apprehend offenders, using force when necessary. Police officers can be trained in an enormous number of specialisms such as armed response, hostage negotiation, royalty or diplomatic protection, surveillance, counter-terrorism, child protection, internet-based sexual offences, major criminal investigations such as fraud, rape, murder, honour killings, people or drugs trafficking and so on.

What is a Skateboarder / Skateboarding?
Skateboarding is the act of riding on or performing tricks with a skateboard. A person who skateboards is referred to as a skateboarder or skater.
Skateboarding—often portrayed in the media as an extreme sport—can be a form of art, a hobby, or a method of transportation.[1] Skateboarding has been shaped and influenced by many skateboarders throughout the years. A 2002 report by American Sports Data found that there were 12.5 million skateboarders in the world. Eighty percent of skateboarders polled who had used a board in the last year were under the age of 18, and 74 percent were male.[2]
Skateboarding is a relatively modern sport—it originated as "sidewalk surfing" in the United States—particularly California—in the 1950s.

What gives these pigs the right to do what they do.

FUCK THE POLICE!!!...

GO SKATEBOARDING!!!...

A thousand apologies...

As always.. Everyone meets at Woolstores and see what happens from there..It's Frodo's birthday dinner night and we were going to half price mexican..Zappatas..

Jez makes an appearance with a Tre for Tre Apparel..

Simo knows the rules and is already drinkin before he got here..

The Crew..

Karmie and Bowie aka Mom and Dads got Frodies a little bottle of Absinthe..It was down the hatch in less than 0.2 secs..

The Mayor and Mr Campbell joined in for the festivities..

It wouldn't be right if things didn't get broken or stolen..Toilet signs was the victim for the night..

Where's Aids?..

There he is..in the background..Almost as impressed as Spaks..

The Mayor got his first installment in a whole mouth of Gold..A tooth at a time..

Food arrived after 45 gruelling mins of waiting..Simo ordered 2 Tacos..should've had Nachos mate..

By the time Frodo's food came..They've ran out of jalapenos..so he used up 3/4 of a bottle of Tobasco instead..

The Homlat doing what he does second best..Munching..(Nollie crooks is the obvious first)

Shazi couldn;t be happier at this point because they forgot his meal..while everyone was nearly dying from being too full..Shaz had to sit there and wait for this meal to come..It was worth it though..

Spaks, Simo and I got Frodies a bottle of tequila..It came with Chilli Salt and a worm..He did a suicide shot with enough chilli salt to rule a country with and half a lemon in the eye..

Time to get outta theres..

What's wrong?.. I think he Absinthe..Jack Daniels..Tequila..and the worm is catching up..

Teece and Shazlay and myself..

Ma-ma-mates..

This was his 2nd ice cream..

Imagine this lot came to your restaurant..you must be..

Time to go..

Happy birthday Frodies!!

Two Words - Nice One...

2007-04-11T16:03:00.000+08:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY FRODO!!..

2007-04-10T11:24:00.000+08:00

I never thought the day would come that little Rowan Williamson turns 21..I still remember the first time I met him..and his mom..She came storming into Momentum Freo and had the biggest cry about the deck that she bought for her son a week ago has snapped..she demanded a brand new one..because 'decks aren't suppose to break in that time'..we all know how Frodie skates and now he gets free boards..Happy Birthday mate!!..

Good Friday..What is it good for?..

2007-04-10T10:55:00.000+08:00

This is how everything felt about TK..Tried to run the box over..but the box and floor got the better of him..ahha..

Fat cunt's go to Subway to lose weight..I don't think they realise that they're only supposed to eat one sub at a time..

2007-04-03T15:19:00.000+08:00

There's been alot of Woolstores flicks that I've posted in the past weeks. Reason for this is that I love Woolstores and its gettin knocked down soon. REAL soon apparently. That's why I'm making the most of it.

Simo filmed this line first shot..The Stallion commits!..

This is how you do a b/s ollie..courtesy of Floyd..

Justin shows the kids the one foot ollie..NOT ollie north you nerds!

Jewie learning how to fly..

Jewie with a s/s heel..damn this little shit is gettin good..and if anyone hears him claming..slap him for me..Love jewie..

Rupert was going faster..bigger..and higher than everyone..

It wouldn't be woolies without a poof in extra long boardies hangin around..POOOFF!!

This was taken a few days back..Yow obviously doens't know the rules at woolstores..strictly alcohol and du-bi's only!..

We were skatin the trolley and this trolley guzz wanted it back..Max battled her and we got it for another 30 mins..
m
This little shit was trolley girl's 'street brother' apparently he's 16..he was spitting all over the shop until we told him to spit on the road..he continued to spit when suddenly he made a quick left turn and spat on himself..Armadale winna's for liaf!!..

Who said Woolies attracted trash..this guzz was runnin away from paparazzi after her dog got a pedicure..

Now this is a funny one..what kinda chick would stop and hang out with a bunch of skaters when its gettin dark?.. This one!..her name's Spphia from Amsterdam..she quit school and now goes to the winner school in freo..we shall call her..Frenchy..

WOOLSTORES FOREVER!!

Nature is the law...

2007-04-03T09:52:00.000+08:00

So we're chillin at Woolies and Hendy, Spaks, Ali and Simo are having the biggest cry about jumping down cliff and doing death defying manouvres..talked me into this whole nature business and went to Sewie's..is that how you spell it..I must admit..it looks fun..but until they build a shower area and when its 40 degrees..i might think of experiencing nature like these guys do..

Flounder Face makes it big!!

I'll let the flicks do the talking..but I'll say one thing..They hired a stripper but she was late..when the vid was over everyone was outside she showed up..she was pretty haggard though..i think it must've been the weather..or spray cans or something..She's the one in blue near the bottom..

I was in bed by this time. All comfy and shit. Then I got a call from Chris. I thought he was pulling my leg when he said there was a fire in freo. Then I looked out my window, sure enough, there was a blazing fire in Freo. Patsy and Leo were keen to head down there to check it out. It was the old National Hotel. Pretty commit..

Tragic, Tragic news...

2007-03-08T06:40:00.000+08:00

Yesterday I heard news that one of my all time favorite skateboarder and teammate was in a motorbike crash. Ali Boulala and Shane Cross were the ones involved. They were both riders for Flip . Unfortunately Shane couldn't make it and has passed and Ali is in critical condition in the hospital. Here's a police report covering the incident and the news article (read paragraph 4 onwards).

I'd just like to wish Shane's family all the best and Ali to fuckin make it through this!!

RIP Shane Cross (1987 - 2007)

Get well soon Ali!..
