Random photos.....

Two from today at Kingshighway. Some excess concrete was donated and added to the deck of the corner/quarter.

And a photo by Scott Spaeth at O'Fallon.

New graphics....

New Skate Louis graphics available today. See the Store for details. Also now available at Hillybilly Bombshell in Belleville and Infinity in south county.

Skate Louis goes to Spain....

Well, a Skate Louis sticker did anyway with my friend Mikey which he pasted on a post near a skate spot, took a photo and then chased some gypsies.

Out.....

I'm out of commission for the time being. I took a board to the ankle in Florida at the Kona park. It's been three weeks and it still isn't really up to it. Not cool.

I will have two new shirts in the very near future. Stay tuned......

Skate Fest 2009.....

O.K., I only shot the bowl jam and not the "street" stuff. This year it was a jam format. They did two divisions, intermediate and skilled. I think intermediate was for ten minutes and the skilled was for twenty. Which seems backward considering the age of a few of the skilled skaters. Just because I'm older than them doesn't mean they aren't old and open to mocking. Anyway, fun was had by all. Here is the video. I didn't get the announcements of the intermediate winners I do remember that Brenna took third and Trey won first. If you know who won second let me know and I'll edit this rambling post. Oh, and watch for Trey's collision. Thanks to Paul for putting the video together.

More DIY....

I skated the South City spot today. They have added some new features the best of which is the way buttery smooth quarter with pool coping. Seriously, smooov....

Random.......

For a reason unknown to me there was a little plastic ramp at the O'Fallon park today. I decided to try it out on the picnic table they have there for some rock and roll fun and then Paul took it up a notch with the "board slide".....
