NVS at RSL8 clip 1

November 17, 2006 in Milpitas CA.
NVS came on last after Flip the Switch, RC Dub, and the Curt/Dan thing. opened. I took 2 clips. This is one of them! NVS was super high energy. Walter is nuts. I liked the music much better then I thought I would, seeing how as it really isn't my genre of choice.

Flip the Switch at RSL8 clip 2

November 17, 2006 in Milpitas CA.
Flip the Switch came on after RC Dub opened. Everytime I've seen them, I have had a great time. Lots of skanking with my skater friends this time. The sound was way better then at the Nickel City show. I took 2 clips. This is one of them! After Flip The Switch, NVS closed it out. Curtis and Dan did a short warm-up set.

20061125 beast of a hill

Shot from the car window as we retreated, licking our wounds! We didn't think it was that steep. Then the hill kicked our butts. My elbow was bloodied. Matt slide into the curb about 5 times and ripped his shorts to shreds. Matt got a huge flat spot on one of his wheels. This was the first time on the hill.

We will return tomorrow!

Dan and Curt do Cash at RSL8

November 17, 2006 in Milpitas CA.
Dan and Curtis from Monkey started things off with a sax/guitar/vocal experiment. This version of Folsom Prison was cool. They set the stage for RC Dub, Flip the Switch, and NVS.

justin at csp 2

Justin skating at CSP late Saturday afternoon (10/21/06). The setting on my camera was messed up so I didn't spend much time editing. I did tweak the speed and colors on my two favorite tricks.

Dad eats it!

Matt and I found a new spot using Google Earth, and it is so good. There were lots of good runs before this one, and a good one after. Watch all the way until the end and turn the volume up. Matt's live narration is classic. Sunday November 5, 2006 early in the afternoon
