Mystery Steve in his robot costume on the "4 Kooks in A Rover" skate trip many years ago. Good times.

We even made a video. We haven't got any better. Well maybe The Steves have.

10 yrs deep and hopefully more. The DLH funday again went off. No bacon hassles this year, though they did swing by and say hello. Lots of beer, sunshine, more metal than normal and tiny helmets. Crazy Phil was back from the dead and constructed a smouldering ring o'fire for hoons to leap through. There was even a cake.

Heres to 10 more, cheers Dil and the Deaner!

How rad is this, checks n'all!

Trowbo in the house. WWM fo life!

Now that me and the wife are older and more responsible we get invited to civilised do's like Dougals BBQ in Modbury. In a rare opportunity to make a weekend of it we also got the chance to visit Shaldon Wildlife Trust where Peeker's adopted Slow Loris (Norris) lives. The Loris's (lori?) true to form were fast asleep but everything else was having lunch so we got to see all sorts of wee monkey/marsupial/hairy based creatures. It's a small place but all the animals seemed well cared for so if you en up near by go visit, theres a bunch of nice pubs down the hill too - bonus.

Dougs BBQ was a laugh with so much nice food the diet went right out the window (Low carb beers mind). And we got to stay in Doug's mighty campervan, gots to get me one - fairylight's n'all. Cheers for having us!

I even managed to squeeze in a quick surf with Rick on the way back, sunny mushy fun - "LOCALS ONLY"!!.

"Seemples". One for Janine!

"Kook"-a-burra.

Paddle Ricky paddle!

Some days are better than they look. Had a super fun little wave at Putsborough on saturday, wasn't even that busy. The Hellafreshfish went well in the 2ft slop and I got some nice long lefts. Snapped a few with Peeks posh camera when the cramp set in.

Have a look at this to get a small insight into one of my favourite bunch of skaters ever. The Julian Stranger bs ollie pic is straight up banging, and the daps Cardiel is rocking in the backside tailslide have given me my second flashback today.

Had a little trip to Barnstaple skate park on sunday as part of Pigdogs "Helltour" which as you'd expect from the name involved sacrifice, heshlaw and some sort of demonic summoning, and not ice creams eh boys?

We had a sick day tho, plenty of shredding and we even managed to get Dougal to pop up from the depths of Devon. Boys still got it even if he was skating in his slippers. I pinched Peek's posh cam and got a few sequences and random snappage. Tim Ward(amercy) once again got the killer shots here.

The dream is over.

Snapped my leash of 10yrs+ today on a fluffed backhand top turn. Served me well this - not bad for a freebie from Plymouth Uni surf club!

Rad surf though - got in Croyde at 5am, 3ft bit chunky and wind all over the place, but just me in for a good hour and a half. Lots of fun walls. Then popped round to Putsborough where it was a clean 2ft for another 2hrs. Glad the leash went here rather than Croyde. Single-finned right out. Knackered. Stoked.

Keep forgetting to take the camera though.

Sneaky, radical, friday session at the Cretesham. Even managed to drag Jesus over for it too. Think he liked, not too sure if he likes trains tho, looked nervous the whole way here. Either way he was on it.

No - you da man.
Muttleybrophilmate had new wheels and did many, many grinds.


Gaffer rock n rolls on the EVILPOINTYBOARD under a suitably metal sky.

I can only do front rocks if a midget is cackling manically next to me.

Satanic board + Jesus = rad grinds.

HOLY SMITHERS.

T'were Whip's 30th this just gone weekend. Beach party at HBay was in full effect and so were the waves. Blessed with a beaut of a swell and some lovely weather. Cheers for an awesome day out Champ - welcome to the old mans club.

Some snappers from the day, most by Peek and a few from me.
