day 3 bradenton

sorry i am a little late on this one. i needed a whole day to recover it was a rowdy one. well it started at 8 am after a four hour nap of hangin out with some adult sodas and as you could expect we were still a little inebriated . mr. daniello woke us up and as soon as we could get something in our stomachs we were ready to hit the water. riding was another gnarly little time. once we got in i passed out and missed filming travis doran who killed it but it was all good because him and stu both rode again behind the jetski, and then mr. soderlind arrived with an amazing little set up to take some pics of stu riding for his third time of the day which i am guessing turned out amazing! the night ended with a trip to applebees on karoke night and the worst part was no one would do a duet with me and i wasnt about to blow everyones minds with a solo debut. around 130am i hoped in my car and headed back to beautiful orlando and i got there 2 and a half hours and 3 redbulls later. 

New posts!!!!!!!!  so today we went shredding today! it was awesome! i like to use !!! alot lol...

so its my b-day as of 54 min ago.... rowdy!!!!!! um chillen watching national treasure 2 so true.

ok today started off with waking up at the crack of 10 and getting on the water after some dunkin donuts action and a hefty lil gas bill to spend a fun day on the boat. stu went first and he still knows how to dance on the water even if he cant open his eyes. while he was riding we saw travis doran lurking on stus dock so we decided to pick him up. after stu showed every one that you can fist pump in the middle of wake to wake lines jimmy decided to throw down some crazy renentry lines. trav finally opened his eyes enough to put his shoes on so he could ride and throw down some fun little lines and then learning a new trick at the end.  ok so after that i went with the same anna maria celeb on a tour of the island. so it was a good way to end off the day and now here we are in stus living room watching national treasure drinking stus birthday present. tomorrow the bear and some special guests will be riding with us tomorrow. for the record if you know of any one else that can fist pump into a wake to wake backside bigspin let me know because as of now stu is the man for doin that today!!! shh dont tell any one!

this weekend

ok a lot has gone down the last couple of days.

1. any one who is friends of the hanson family know that daves older sister is getting married tomorrow (which is actually today) . what some of you might not know is how true the suit is that dave is wearing. i got to witness it earlier at the wedding rehearsal. i will do my best to get pictures of it you might see it as a dvd menu who knows? 

2. jonny kierce, daves neighbor from narcoossee graduated high school and signed a lease today on an apartment in waterside with jimmy chadsey. looks like things are gonna get a little rowdy.

3. on sunday i will be going to bradenton to visit a scene one friend stuart shinn. i will luckily be down there for his birthday. that kid trav doran might be creepin around who knows? 

4. oh and sadly andrew pastura has left the otown and has gone to ohio so his brother can teach him to wakeskate. but he is in georgia right now shredding with that guy ben horan.

Well well well, looks like it has been a good solid week or so since this bad boy has been tickled with a new update...

Quality time in Anna Maria is always pleasant. Nick Taylor is a machine at the tricks he does, he pretty much doesnt stop. unfortunately for us Nick is going to be unavailable and traveling around for the whole rest of the summer, so good thing we got some good stuff when we did! His part will still surely blow minds, and we are definitely NOT done filming him for the vid, he is just going to be gone for a while. Horan is rowdy as ever, we are getting more and more footy of that kid. Jacksonville/Georgia winch trip 1st weekend in June! Also got plans to immortalize the ever-impressive Clint Tompkins on film in Texas right after the Toe Jam out there. Any footy of CLint in Texas winching is always sick. kickflipping 8 foot tall drops just doesn't seem to be an issue for that guy.

I have been straight up CHILLING in Narcoossee later... nearly forgot how awesome it is out here. The apartment at Lake Nan is getting vacated at the end of this month, and it will be a sad goodbye. But luckily for us we got some rowdy homies that will be taking our place and keeping Nan alive! And who knows, maybe Drew and I will end up there again after summer. who knows.

Anyone out there reading this that wants to give us money by any chance? Just wondering.

More plans, more plans: the great land of Virginia will be getting a little visit from Scene One in the month of July. My predictions: we will probably break like three cameras, there may be a helicopter crash or two, and we will most likely stop and smell the flowers quite a bit. houseboats for the win.

Well that's quite a bit for now, but i have more to say! More bl_gging to come.

St. Petersburg winching

Today started out with us scoping out a big gap… a really big gap. Everyone was kind of psyched out going there first thing in the morning and didn’t feel like breaking their knee caps just yet. Fortunately right next door was another gap, this drop not quite so gnarly. The boys got pretty techy on that (and Nick is with us now!), then we got some strange bust from a park ranger laughing about how he called the cops. We split up out of there and headed to a pair of gaps in Seminole county where some craziness went down. Everyone pretty much turned these gaps into a skatepark, shredding those things in ways not thought possible. At the end of the day Roland and Kyle brought us home with some signature winch steeze down a good little three-footer.
Tomorrow we are sessioning the ever-so-trendy “M Gap” and some other big doggers. And then sadly the trip will be over. It sure was a good one, wait for the footage to slap you in the face once Fun Boots! comes out…

Later

south florida winch trip

Well it has been quite a trip thus far, and the freedom of summer has been ringing gloriously through the highways of South Florida in the form of four young adventure-seekers by the names of Ben Horan, Andrew Pastura, Roland Lugo, and myself. We headed straight from Orlando to Fort Lauderdale for two days with our host Grasso (the Boss-o). After some quality shredding and some real good finds in the forms of cement ledges and big drops.

Our next destination was across state in Fort Myers, aka “the 239,” where we knew Matt Engel and Stink would be holding it down pretty hard. Despite some dried up winch gaps (some that brought a tear to my eye to think of their potential), we still got some good times and footage in at Engel’s home lake and even got to session Fort Myer’s new soon-to-be-open cable park. Check it out when you get the chance, it was so fun and the cable is nice. Big thanks to those guys for letting us ride and giving Andrew the opportunity to learn some gnarly tricks off the incline rail.

It was time soon enough to leave the dirty south of the 239 and creep up into Anna Maria Island to meet up with Nick Taylor and do some quality island riding. He took us to his secret rail spot with two jet skis and some impressive switch lines up his sleeve. Watching Nick ride in his home waters shows a new style to his riding, and I’m really stoked on capturing that kind of footage of him. Nick shreds anywhere, though, congrats on the Toe Jam victory buddy!

So now we are posted up in St. Petersburg, Florida on my dad’s sailboat, figuring out what different gaps we will hit within the next two days. It’s been great so far and the crew is tight as ever. Trips like these are the best!
