Some Secrets Are Best Kept Secrets

Mostly everyone who lives in the woods such as myself, grows up fishing. The old classic worm and bobber technique was priceless for the little guy sun fish. But as I grow older the only thing entertaining with sun fish is hitting them back into the water with tennis rackets. Its called Racket Fishing, inventor Adam Riggsby to give credit. My 5 year old imagination has evolved to that of a 12 yr old, and that means I crave more of a challenge.
But getting to the point, I don't like people when fishing, I like catching big fish most of the time I go out. And to achieve these two basic principles one must find their own secret spot, one where no one knows the location. And to keep it this way you must never give up the location, but brag quite often to claim that you have the 'best' fishing spot ever. I myself have found that little slice of heaven on earth. This video shows what the spot is capable of in 2 hrs time, Casson and myself show what fishing really is. Now that's a claimer statement.

Long Awaited Update....

Ok so its been quite sometime since I've done anything with this, and rather continue with the tour video postings. I'm claiming this stack of internet space as my own.
Tour with Smartbomb and Hit the Switch will be one of my most fond memories of my youth, hands down.

Here's the last video we produced, Kona to Jacksonville:


I collected some of the craziest footage ever on this trip and instead of putting up more posts, the plan is to construct a bigger documentary style film. I believe?
Cutting to the chase, I hope to become responsible and consistently put interesting things up here that I feel are important to me and society in general.

In other news, I've motivated myself to edit some skate footage together for yet another RK teaser. But the video is in the works for real.
HD is the new tom, so fuck Youtube. I've found an online HD player Vimeo. Its quite rad.

Hometown Bro-down / Ship Out

Hometown Bro-down

Hometown shows are priceless so wasn’t this one. The bus seemed to be the central hang location, or more like a full-blown party. One instance I saw kids in the middle of the street throwing bottles down a pipe only to make and echoed crash as store owners looked in aww. Cheap brews and the Bruins winning a playoff game, kept us in good spirits. Some retarded fights broke out, we won’t get into that or the after party.

Ship Up to Ship Out
Tuesday morning was spent battening down the hatches and getting our shit settled into Sacred Blue, our home for the next month. A smooth and successful 5 hour drive landed us on the shores of Jersey. Upon exploring the boardwalk and enjoying the scenic waves we had the pleasure of meeting Tyrone. Tyrone was a crazed homeless man who claimed to have both types of sex organs and who also had an insatiable need to polish things. But what else could you expect on the shores of this great American state?
The show was sick, it was in a bowling alley. We also got free chips that magically turned into drinks when redeeming them at the bar. We had a sufficient amount, keeping us occupied throughout the night, not to mention complimentary bowling.
The next day I awoke in some god-awful truck stop, our previous night’s mission was to get out of the great state of Jersey and escape its decrepit smell. But it became a reality that we were still here, while taking a piss in some greenish goop of a puddle a huge fucking bus with a shit ton of people came rolling through. We then got in the bus an headed for Richmond Virginia for our day off due to a canceled show.



oh and here's some quick vid grabs of what we've been currently getting weird with. With so many daily adventures, it is nearly impossible to snaggle-hag some time to edit.
