Its Coming

Everyone has been skating the ward a ton lately, stacking as much footy for the full length. I've been trying to get out there as much as possible but with the first semester coming to an end, exams a week away and university applications, its been difficult to find some free time.

For now here's some random photos from the past two weeks.

Went downtown for a day with Zach
and Jay, the weather kept us indoors
but the security guards just sent us
back out into the -10 snow storm.
Zach feebling some dirty subway
station rail.


















This one was from Scarborough a couple
weeks back but I've never gotten to
posting it. So here it is, Claudio kickflip.


















Ghetto studio in my basement.













Test photo.












Ward update 4 will be up very soon so keep posted.

Chip is Tougher Then You Whip

First post of the new year! Ready to kill it this year and can't wait for this cold weather and snow to roll out for some warmth and sunshine. On that note last week we got lucky with some positive weather which brought me back to Toronto. For probably the last street skating ill be doing for a little while. But it was a good time, tricks were copped and we even met a nice man by the name chip.


This was the first and last spot of the day. After warming
up we head over to this spot and after 5 strange tries of
committing to the ollie Zach and us all were sent running
from security.













At the end of the day we head back to the spot that start
the day off. Half way through setting up we got kicked
out for a second time. So we packed up and wait around
the corner a little longer. Knowing a shift change was
happening we headed back for a third attempt hoping to
get more then a couple tries in before getting the boat.
But like before we one got chance. But likely with that
one try we were able to get a pretty tight photo. Zach
Ollie.













Letrae got his ollie then got in the way.....
























Shawn got one papped nollie.












This spots gnarly enough and with landing on road it
makes it an even hard spot to skate.












Dylan front tail.












P.S. A full length ward video is in the works so be expecting another ward update very soon.

Ward Update 3: Winter

Its that time of the year again that all skaters dread. The snow starts falling and people head down south for the warm weather. But for me the only place ill be skating this winter is the ward.

Peter banged out 5 tricks down the big down all first or second try. Including...

5050..













back feeble and...


















almost this back smith.


















Alex front lip.













Ben 5 0 and...


















Crook.

Lord of The Wards

Some of the Canadian circa team riders stopped by for a quick demo before the contest started.

Beaster Wallie Backlip.

























Beaster Nose Grab body varial.


















Jessie Tessier Backside flip to flat.


















After the demo and warm ups finished the contest started. First off were the gerbs, ages 12 and under. But once ages 13 to 16 were up the real bangers start to come out.

Alex Kidd killed it during the qualifiers but couldn't hold
it down in the finals. Alex Front Blunt.













Alex kickflip Front Board.


















Watching.








Jon Cos killed it all night long, with countless hammers
and first try tricks. Jon Kickflip Back Lip.

























Jon Hardflip over the big down.

So by now I'm pretty sure you guys know who won it...... with no surprise it was Jon Cos first Alex Yates second and Peter Condon third.

Jon Nollie Heel Noseslide.













Trent worked hard all night to get this footy. So click here to check the Lord of The Wards video.

Getting Cold

Not much to say other then another Toronto trip. Its starting to get really cold and getting out and shooting photos is getting harder. Not to stoked.

Early morning street car ride.


















Christian backside flip.













Shawn stomped this ollie first try but we
got the boot right after. Looks like were
going back.













On the subway ride home we decided to
stop by Lansdowne to get a couple
tricks. Claudio front 1.




























Brandon got this one with one foot. Front shove.


















Sitting at the bottom of some dirty
stairs while a skateboard spins right
beside your head. Probably not the
best way to spend a Saturday night.
Claudio 3 flip.

Some photos here and there. I need to get out some more before the snow falls.

Alex killing it some more. Nose slide bigspin manny.
