Kamploops cradle

Spring has arrived and the urge to get outside is back.
Gotta throw the board into the truck for those afterwork sessions.

Got that shit ON!!!

We tested out the corner today and it got high marks on the stoke scale!
Fast and locked grinds with a hint of knuckle action!

Look at that lip!!

Poured them red crete decks too!
Next up beer cooler!

TEDDER STONE

 Copings cut and ready to be set!!!

                                       If  you know anything about grinding block you would know that Tedder Stone pool coping is the best shit you can get! Theres not a single skatepark in Canada that has coping this good! Needless to say i am STOKED!

Alleyside part 3

I've had a lack of updates on this thing because after i finished building this next section you are about to see in this post i spent most of my extra time in a crazed skate frenzy! Lots of time was spent grinding and sliding and after we tested the concrete edge with thousands of grinds i feel it is now time to show the few people that look at this thing the next phase of my other wife  AKA "Alleyside"

Time to lose the shelves. 

Who need storage anyways?

More and more

form work

forms and filler

A lot of recruits involved this time!

Slapin it on!

Yes! Yes! Yes!

Pool style hip!

Ready to SKATE!

And Skated it got!

Coming Next post!   POOL COPING!

Time to Grind.

God damn this makes me wanna GRIND!!!!!!

Here we go again.

This was fun times but we all know skateboarders like to progress.

Progress to bigger and better things.

Sometimes to progress you need to take a couple steps back

and remember the mistakes you made to improve them in the future.

So long little guy!

Need a lot more of this! Even more than can be shown in this photo!

Gearin up for gettin down.

Forming up to new heights.

Dirty tools = Satisfaction

Satisfaction Indeed!

Shit is comin together!
More to come!

Garage Days part 2, A rags to riches story.

If your a real skater even the sight of a pool like this cant stop you from getting excited!

Fortunately for me i raped this sucker of all its salvageable parts.
Including this crusty ass looking light that was just barely above the cess-pool.

Along with the light I also scored some access panel covers and a bunch of tile covered concrete blocks that don't grind worth shit and probably wasted 10 litres of dave's gas to drive them home.

That light got a new home today!
 I just couldn't wait to get home from work today to pull those damn forms off and test fit the light.

Now i have a corner light with just enough room to carve over and I couldn't be more stoked!

Garage days mega post!

 Well it was the one year anniversary of my private spot being created and what better way to celebrate than expanding it.

Had to move this crap first to make clearance for future radicalness!

the old quarter needed to grow from mini to full on scene!

Salvaged pool light needed a new home

bag o portland 

Stack of old boards to hang up or possible re-ride.

memories of past times

old quilt from the red cross after apartment fire.
Lowcard? Almost.

cleaned out corner with the start of things to come

figuring out some radius

starting to get it figured.  Its time to get it going.

a little of this,

a little of that. (Note the tiles for the future extension)

Form work and screeders. That light has finally found its home to be.
Gotta work on lighting that bitch up.
Time for rebar.

I learned after building the original quarter that you need some help from some truly dedicated homies.
Down for the cause crew represent!

filling them forms with the light hole plugged off.

looking good just gotta polish that sucker up.

Well golly gee williker that is one fine looking corner if i do say so myself.
Lots of work comin up in the future but not a bad weekend in my eyes.
