Pissing on the inferno.
Some days it just seems like an uphill battle.
Or maybe it seems because it is.
Before we get into any of the goods, I know I’ve posted the following video of Kriss Kyle along the lines at some point shortly after it was initially released, but as time went by, the more I thought about it.
There was a time in which this would have been a show stopper, but anymore, so much amazing footage is released on a weekly basis, things like this just get buried. As such, I feel the need to push it once again;
Having now done my due diligence, let’s move onto other matters.
It’s at this juncture that I’ll post a couple of photos that my dear friend Zorn recently shot of the enigma known as Quiggle getting after it aboard of the the new AHTBM curb, ditch, and pool tool;
In years past, getting action shots to push the decks has been no issue, but because I basically live a wholly isolated existence now, am no longer surrounded by a bevy of talented photographers, and have been buried under the Washington State’s shittiest weather on record, I have to rely on the remote skills of my pals back in the East Bay.
I would of course would be remiss to not mention that I miss that group of people with such intensity I can feel it in my bones.
Anyhü- I have a stack ‘o planks left on hand, and look forward to shipping them out as requests filter in;
As always, I thank you for your time and consideration on this matter.
What else have we got cooking? I suppose in news of not riding bikes, or not riding skateboards, I would like to bring up that I finally talked a couple of local chums into buying tiny trucks, one of which and I recently spent a whole day playing in the woods, and almost avoiding abandoned piles of dog shit;
He picked this rig up on eBay for a song, and has already begun the journey down the rabbit hole;
Our other buddy Joe had mentioned he was upside down in this world when he was a kid, but was reluctant to re-immerse his toe into it, as he’s all too familiar with his own obsessive nature. just the same, he’s now ended up with one of these;
As much as I love this truck, I would like for him to do this to it.
And speaking of Joe, I also have to include a shot that his boss at Kona Bicycles, Kevin sent me of a corner of his basement;
It’s a slippery slope.
In the event that you didn’t see this past weekend’s ‘One For The Weekend’, I’ll include a little mini-cut of a couple clips I shot recently whilst lost in the trees;
As it says in the previous posting, ‘never stop playing‘.
I realize this is all stupidly dorky, but then again, as far as almost anyone on the outside looking in is concerned, literally everything I do is.
Whatever the case, besides gamers, I can pretty much never make fun of anyone for doing anything ever again.
Lastly, before I go, I would like to bring up this event that Corndog clued me in on just yesterday-
It had me at the quote, “I thought I was gonna die“;
So, wait a minute- The Attakwas is over 75 miles, has more than 5,000 feet of climbing, and reaches temperatures at the peak of the day’s heat of 122 degrees Fahrenheit? Do I have all of those conversions correct?
Where do I sign up?
In comparison, that would make the act of pissing on an inferno seem like a cool breeze.
Yesterday I took delivery on a “It’s the Water” T-shirt and am very pleased. I had an Oly shirt just like it when I was a teen though this one is way cooler. Thanks Stevil.
I too am seriously contemplating going down the tiny truck rabbit hole, given the prevalence of rocks on this side of the mountains… especially since I discovered that there is a 1/10 el camino body available.
WHERE!?
It would take a ton of mods but what el camino rock crawler wouldn’t. https://www.rcplanet.com/kyosho-chevy-el-camino-ss-396-1-10-touring-car-body-clear-kyofab705/p1331058?gclid=Cj0KCQiAubmPBhCyARIsAJWNpiNEgnyQuaVHjDDkXjU0gLmdapnZvtmvqpZouFhIIH_3EOh5swbNojQaAkc0EALw_wcB
