Well today I got a call from Scott, He wanted me to check out this hip spot. So I met him and Jim at the park and road with Scott.

This spot is gnarly, not even because the spot is that crazy. To GET TO this thing you have to run across the interstate. Yes thats right....thought it was crazy too.

But you realize its worth it.

Scott was not scared a bit.

Jim was a little freaked out about it.


But he got over it.
Scott was steady R.I.P'n this spot.


After that we crossed the interstate again and went back to Scott's bird.

Jim was debating if he should skate this thing.
But a few tries later he came away with something sick.

Then we cruised over to the Bump-to-hydrant.

And Jim wanted to get a 180:

Don't blame him either, It came out sick!

Then Nick, Cameron, and the rest of the crew came rolling up. Cameron got a trick on the bump, but......I'm trying to do something with it :)

After that Scott wanted to try and get this photo at The Aquarium's bank. We rolled up on a sure bust spot. And I went to setup before anyone stepped up and threw down.

And then Scott noticed this man-in-blue hanging out across the street. So we figured we could wait for another time.

By that time it was Grub or Skate decision time.... (jeopardy theme chimes in)

Everyone decided to go skate this funky long rail that Scott 5050'd and Cameron got a boardside on.1/500th F3.5 ISO 1600 for that (Old Film Look)

Fake Pano. lame?? ya a little...Don't care though!



Scott and most of the guys split to get some grub.

Me, Cameron, Nick all went and tried to get some photos at TVA.

BAD IDEA, I mean I'm down to go but the TVA Police are on that shit.
Enough said, some name taking, and some threats later we walked out of there. Cops are really looking in the downtown area lately. Hopefully this isn't a on going thing.

Here's some of the attempts.

about 10 minutes worth.

This blog will not only contain skateboarding, this will contain daily posts of something I shoot that day. I am usually behind a camera atleast once a day.

Well until my next entry.
Peace!
