Q: Where do you like it more? Prince Geroge or Tsawwassen/Vancouver area?

A: Everyone at t-town is dope, even though some of those young guns can get annoying as hell, but with out a doubt Shadd Trep is probably one of my favorite locals, he puts on for his city for sure, driving all of us roudy lil shit disturbers to different skateparks over the last several years.


Q: Any shout outs to the homeys!

A: Ahhh shit i dont know how to answer this one, i guess ill go with "I love you fools!" You all know who you are. hahah

Victoria Trip

 This past weekend I took a trip over to Victoria for the Vic West Contest and to skate some new spots. I went over with Hayden Kelly and Sam Hampton. It was my first time to Victoria but it is for sure not going to be my last. There are alot of sick spots  and because we were only there for two days we were not even able to hit all of them. Thanks to the 2009 summer sbc issue that featured a spot map of victoria in it we were able to find our way around quite well. Here are some left over photos we got. Enjoy














Wuddup

 Yo, I decided to create a blog for all my photos and footy I have left over from my day to day shooting. I will try and keep my blog updated as much as possible.  - B-Dizz
