Built to Shred!

Today was rad. For the second time we and skated with the Built to Shred guys for the Fuel show. The first one was a ditch where they built quarter pipes with log coping and a bunch of other crazy obstacles along a little ditch snake run. This time David, Ryan, Curren, Moose and myself went to some military base by San Diego where we skated three different things they built.




The first one was just a bank ramp up to some artilery shell containers.





The second thing we skated (which I don't have any pictures of cause I suck) was insane. We leaned two pieces of plywood up to a railing with a gap in the middle. On the other side of the rail there was like and 8 foot drop, it was so gnarly. We all skated the gap in between while David did every trick he could first try on the railing. Ryan tried blunt once and got broke off... ha.


The last thing they built was a gap on top of compacted cardboard boxes that they recycle with a box mad of recycled aluminum cans with angle iron on the edge next to the gap. Daewon style. It was so fun and so gnarly.



A ton of stuff went down and I'm stoked to see the episodes next season. Saturday we are going back to the base to film again. I think we are going to be skating tanks and other equipment, stoked! Keep an eye out on Fuel.


Afterwords we ran into the Cons krew at Pedro's tacos, we had David jump in so we could take a quick one of all of them wearing the exact same shoes. Cute.
