Max Hartley is TAKEN/ABACK

Max Hartley is a friend of mine. If you know him you know you know that he has been busy at school in Philadelphia for the last four years. For those of you who dont know him, he doesnt seem like your typical "college kid". Max has created some of the wildest art pieces that i have ever seen and he is fresh out of school. Max is a super modest, humble, welcoming person and i am glad to have met him some years ago. We had an art show up at Mesh Skatepark to display all of his hard work and the hard work payed off. Thanks Max, i know you read this.

Drunk?

no, just happy!

Treasure buried right underneath my feet.

For years iv been pedaling by a park just up the road from my parents house for close to ten years and never took the time to venture in very far but the other day i gave it a chance and was blown away. The place was full mostly with religious art, which i am not a big fan of, but i could tell that everything there represented a good amount of time and effort on someones part. It all looked amazing as well so that was a plus! enjoy the pictures, or not.

John Turano!

John is the last of a dying breed of front brake shredders. i took a couple of pics the other night one of a tooth pick and one of a switch footed tooth pick

Illegal aliens drink alchohol??? i got proof

i found this space craft parked in front of a liquor store on my way home from work the other day. Wild to know that aliens like to drink cheap mexican beer and shitty liquor from a corner store. Oh yeah, and Jon almost died from "sun poisoning" and had to sleep for almost 24 straight hours. why cant he get a fucking job?

Jurassic Park is in Florida

So, when i was younger(middle school) the neighborhood kids and i knew about an abandoned water treatment plant hidden in the woods on the edge of town. It was a place we went to back in the day to play man hunt and break shit and just have fun away from any place that we could get into trouble. We dubbed the place Jurassic Park. On route to my parents house i pass the woods that are home to Jurassic Park and always tell myself that i am going to go back and snap some photos. So, today i got a wild hair up my ass and headed into the woods. Things have changed for sure. The city has a huge chain link fence around the place and the old creek we used to cross is full of water now. Once i got in i found that the place is extremely overgrown and has become a hot spot for graffiti and mischief. Yep, we had our good times and even though different things have happened there i am glad to see that a new generation was able to enjoy our old stomping ground. Not sure how much longer the place might be there so i made a point to get as many pictures as i could. I will probably post more photos tomorrow.

You cant do that in the house!!!

So, i was in my room the other night and i thought i was the only one home....Then i heard a power saw. A power saw! When i came out Jon, Max and Aaron had cut the kitchen counter off of the wall and set it up against the wall. They skated it until Kyle Painter ate shit into it so hard that it broke in half. I smashed my head into the lights in the kitchen and then got smart enough to gram by camera. The folding table that Allen Twin broke in half with his back got set up in the laundry room and worked really well. These two shots are of Max Hartley and Jon Georgens.
Shred til ur dead!

PARTY HARD!!

With Rickey out of town i am able to steal his internet connection. So, what has happened lately? Well, Erik Payne(guitar player for Andrew W.K.) came over to part hard and shred Aaron's Guitar. I think he told us some of the wildest stories i have ever heard. The night was good and although i was trying to relax and even sleep, the inhabitants of 71n. thought things would be different and the big screen TV took the hit. RIP

Chad DeGroot gav'er

Congrats Chad! Good luck with things on your time off. Hope the family is doing well.

three photos

this is all i have time to post tonight. i want to do something more soon im just fuckin beat right now. three photos of things in the surrounding area of my home.

no rain on a day off??

this was a lazy post. i just swam across the gross lake in my back yard and feel like i am going to die. anyway, a couple of us went to lake mary park last night to ride. those photos were the decent ones of the night. shred crew included degroot, country man, bates, aaron, street dragon, and myself. im going to pass out.

Orlando wins?... The Magic won at least.

So, tonight the Orlando Magic won the eastern conference play offs and are now going on to play the Lakers to see who the best professional basketball team in north america is. This has brought alot of publicity to our city but has the publicity and hype of our local basketball team finally doing well after over ten years of nobody cares to justify funding a new arena? I have watched a good amount of the playoff games and it seemed as if our current amway arena does the job. The other night i was riding around and wondered by this mess. I have been told that this is our new arena for the magic to play inside of. This does not look bigger than our current arena... it, in fact, looks smaller. If you travel 1/4 of a mile in one direction of this site you hit the booming downtown orlando area with bars and small venues as far as the eye can see. but, if you travel 1/4 mile in the opposite direction you hit a neighborhood that looks like it could use orlandos money in a more useful way. I strongly agree with anyone who feels that a new place for the Orlando Magic to play is an extreme waste of Orlando's money.

you gotta get them before they get you...

So, the other day the "casselberry crew" rolled over to an undisclosed location in sanford to party. This dude named Curtis invited Gut Ruckus to come over and play a show in his living room. He failed to mention that it was his moms house and she was out of town.... When we arrived spencer was jammin on the one and showing up all of the other djs and mcs in the house. Meanwhile Dan Perez was shredding the dance floor. Aaron and Jon played a solo set and raged. As soon as the music started all hell broke loose and the party went something like T H I S.

Tampa ditches are going off...

My boss, Chad DeGroot drove my co-workers Dave McDermott, Greg Smee, and myself to Tampa last week Where we met up with Matt Coplon.... Matt is a good friend of mine who happens to lead a double life between singing for one of my favorite bands called Light Yourself on Fire(look them up on myspace) and working as the top dog keeping things together at Profile Racing. I brought the camera and took a couple of photos and these were some of my favorites.


Chad Degroot with on hell of a one handed, no footed miami hopper in tampa....



Matt Coplon barspinning over the fence out of the third ditch of the day. He did not land this but the picture does the crash no justice, im sure Matt will be pulling this soon. I was siked to hear Matt say he was scared of it, that always motivates me to be scared and get that adrenaline pumpin



Last, Greg Smee doing a can can foot plant on an extremely hart to ride DIY quarter.

Georgia anyone????

In the past year things in my life have changed drastically. My fathers health has rendered him unable to work where he has been working for the past 17 years. After being a retail store manager for over 35 years he is retired and is able to enjoy life a little more. With me taking a break from school and moving out last year i have had little time between riding bikes and working over 40 hours each week. Two weeks ago my father and i took a trip to cordel Georgia for an electric r/c show and fly. We stayed with his friend Charlie(the guy who sold me his boss old ss suburban). I stayed in Atlanta for two days and hung out with my dad. It was good to spend some time with him. Funny, i had to talk him out of buying a nitrous kit for his corvette when we stopped in summit racing just outside of Atlanta.... The guy is my hero and thought i would post some pics from the weekend.

still something wrong.....

sooo, my newer computer is having problems with the internet browser. last night was really wild. the zeal distro team to party and take all of floridas women. downtown orlando got wrecked my GL and myself, i am pretty sure GL is still 21 years old and he could still whip Gary Ellis' ass on and off of the track. Holy shit, he told me last night that he named the S&M Holmes. I believe it.
Tonight is sure to be wild, when i left for work this morning the front porch had already been wrecked in preparation for the party/show tonight. Gut Ruckus has been in full effect lately weather it was a regular band practice or at 5:00a.m. Do me a favor for real though, if you get there before me....... save me a spot.

not dead.......

i got a new computer after taking my old one into a field just like in office space and smashing it with my Muslim friend. this blog is not dead. i have a ton of stuff to update as soon as i get a little more time. peace.

i scored a new frame today biaatch

All of the new Deluxe frames and bars came into underground distro today so i snagged a frame for myself and one in every color and size for the shop along with all colors and sized in the bars. they are sick..... they released a frame that is British racing green and has vbrake mounts. there are only ten of them and mesh has all ten. holy shit. limited as fuck frame and mesh is the only place in the u.s. to get them. sweeeeeet.

Jesus comes back on easter at 71n.

Today is the supposed anniversary of this "jesus christ" coming back to life to do something or other. I dont really care much. It pisses me off that people celebrate this bogus holiday and believe that god and jesus will save them when they die...... If some guy walked up to a christian person and told them that they were the second coming of christ they would call the police and demand that the "crazy" person be put in jail. If you believe in something like jesus and god you may as well pray to the ideals of a harry potter book. While everyone was at home eating easter dinner with their families Dave and I sat at work all day, because we dont care. I thought i might have captured Jesus in a picture, until i got a little closer and realized that it was just Aaron not needing chrystal meth.
