Some dude in a weird hat

Mike Owen is hands down the best tranny skater in Chicago. If you've seen him skate you know what i'm talking about. I don't really know what else to say, the dude rips!

Ashland Blue

If you need somebody to go street skating with in the next couple of months hit up Dusty. He's is working on a extensive map of skate spots in Chicago. I hope you enjoy this picture of him doing a gap to lipslide.

31st Sesh

I skated 31st last sunday with the uprise dudes. Good times were had. Here are some pictures of Jay and local legend Junior Gonzales.

Ollie Fever

I got in the car with Dusty the other day and he pulled out this map he had drawn that had skate spots on it. I don't think it was completely accurate, but at least he had a map. So we set out to explore all these spots on the map. I had been to alot of them before but some of them were new. When we got the spot in the picture there was a cop car there, so we had to cruise around the block a few times. While we were there a cop kept popping out the door every couple of minutes to watch Dusty try to ollie the bar. She never kick us out though. After about 20 tries she ask Dusty how many times he was going to do "that".

Don't ask!

Ken took me to this spot the other day to take some photos of him and Timmy. He told me he didn't want this spot blown up. So, don't ask me where it is! Also the photos of Timmy should be up on the uprise site soon.

Joplin was awesome!

I went home to Joplin last week. I had a great time. I took a bunch of photos, got to see my friends and skated a lot. These photos are of my friend Jason Bontrager.

"Do hippies really do those?"

This dude Josiah asked me that the other day. Of course i told him they did. When Dusty showed me this thing I thought it was crazy, but when we went there i didn't take him very long to do. I think it took me longer to set up.
