Ok once again sorry for the lack of posts, I have been super busy with school and having people at my house. However I just recently got a new computer with more space then I know what do to with, so I plan on making a lot more montages and posting random clips.

Clip Of The Week with Hayden Kelly and Micky Papa

2010-10-24T10:01:00.000-07:00

These are just a few clips we got the other day with Hayden Kelly and Micky Papa at syndrome park.

PHX Trip

2010-10-06T14:09:00.000-07:00

So as you can see from the video above I had a good trip. I got 12 clips,15 clips, skate new spots, met some new friends and chilled with all the canadian homies. This past weekend was the finals for the Volcom Wild In The Parks Contest at the Rio Vista skatepark, so I gave me a good reason to take the 6 hour drive out. Here are some random and left over photos from the trip.

Here is one of the attempts of 50-50.......... He got super close on this one and I don't mean landing the trick.

This was from the last day of the trip, we mobbed deep this day.

At one of the spots Hayden decided to get a little bit artsy with the melting wax.

Dustin and Andy

At one of the spots Michael somehow destroyed his finger.

Kevin White

Hayden finding what shade there was, It was about 110-115 everyday so at every spot if you were not skating you were finding as much shade as possible.

Clip Of The Week w/ Tyler Burke

2010-09-06T12:47:00.000-07:00

Tyler has been hounding me forever to put this footy up. It took me forever to find all these clips, because they were so old I for some reason had them scattered across two external hard drives. So here we go Tyler Burke clip of the week.

Photo Of The Week

2010-09-06T12:15:00.000-07:00

2010-08-29T22:32:00.000-07:00

This is just alittle timeline i had to throw together because i have never filmed someone land on a trick so many times and look like he should have rolled away............

QuikSilver TF Montage

2010-08-27T11:00:00.000-07:00

This montage I actually filmed awhile ago with Hayden Kelly, Stacy Gabriel, Garrett Wilson and JS Lapierre but misplaced the tape. Last night I decided to search for the tape. After about 2 hours and 30 something tapes later I still could not find it. Then for whatever reason I decided to check my broken VX's. Sure enough in one of them was a tape, I didn't think this could be the tape because this vx had been broken for some time and was not even the one I filmed the montage with. Sure enough when I played by the tape it was the footage I was looking for................. Sometimes you find what your looking for in the strangest places.

Matt Berger Rip Clip

2010-07-20T13:44:00.000-07:00

Photo Of The Week

2010-07-16T15:00:00.000-07:00

This is a photo of a homie Brendon from SD. This was the first day I met him and I took him this gap pretty close to my place. He got out the car and we didn't know if he wanted to skate it, next thing we know he landed this hardflip with out photo or footage. Then he came over to the car and said "hey wanna film that for the hell of it" he ended up landing the hardflip 3 more time before telling us " ok i got another trick for this thing" within 5 more tries he had his second trick.

Magnus and Hanlon Footy.........

2010-07-06T01:37:00.000-07:00

Could this really be a new blog post? Yes it is! Here is some footage I got today with Hayden, Sam and Angel at this sick flat bar spot.

Portfolio 1

2010-06-16T23:40:00.001-07:00

For the past three months I have been taking a Intro to photography class. As a final project we have been asked to create a portfolio of ten to twelve images that we have shot over the coarse. 5 of the images were taken from assignments and then I was allowed to take 5 other images from my own work. - Brandon Alton

Sometimes getting mail is a O.K. thing

2010-06-05T12:25:00.000-07:00

Alright so remember my post of Hayden, TJ and I getting our tape taken away? Well I recently went back to Vancouver for the weekend and when I got back to LA I went to collect my mail, Guess what was in my mail box........ The tape that got taken away at moorepark collage. So I pop it in and sure enough there are the two clips Hayden, Tj and I thought we would never see again.

Skatepark Spot Check at Quiksilver

2010-05-06T09:55:00.001-07:00

Photo Of The Week W/ Tyler Pacheco

2010-05-04T11:58:00.000-07:00

This week I am posting a photo I shot since I have been living in California. His name is Tyler Pacheco but most people call him "manchild". If you ever go to santa clarita park you will most likely see him killing it.

Fuck The Police

2010-04-24T21:29:00.000-07:00

So Tj,Hayden and myself went out skating today. We went to this 4 block up in the valley. We got there and it was pretty windy so we weren't sure if we were going to skate it. Hayden decided to try his trick first and see how bad the wind actually was. After the first try he said it was doable, so this made TJ think of a trick because he has this thing where he has to get a trick on a spot anyone else does. So 3 tries after Hayden started he said he's got his trick, Hayden lands his trick and TJ says back that, and he lands his trick too get Hayden's back. We left that spot and decided to go to this rail I knew of in the valley at this collage. We get there and TJ right away thinks of a trick, he tries it from a bit then I noticed the cops roll up and I tell TJ lets go but he decides to go anyway. The cops now get super pissed and call us over to their car where they start questioning us and making smart ass remarks. Next the cop tells me he is taking my camera, then I start questioning why, next he says show me the footage of him skating the rail so I do, then he tells me he is taking the tape as evidence. Fuck! There goes the two tricks!! So we are still giving all our info for the cops when Hayden and I notice that the other cop is giving TJ a ticket. I ask " what are you getting a ticket for?" The officers says because he has no ID, they even finger printed him to put on there copy of the ticket. After we leave the spot everyone is pretty bummed, then I ask " wanna go back and get the tricks?" There is a small silence then Hayden says "I'm Down". This I'm pretty sure was not what TJ was thinking but ends up agreeing. We get back to the spot pretty bummed, but once we started skating it didn't take both of them long to get there tricks again.

New Pet

2010-04-21T19:55:00.001-07:00

So I found my new pet at this spot near my place. Who wants to come stay at my house?

To Be honest I was walking to my car to get my camera and walked past what I thought was a stick I got about 10 feet away from it when I noticed out of the corner of my eye it start to slither away....... I was like what that fuck! that is a snake. I was told later that I was super lucky cause the snake was still a baby and that when there young they can not control there venom.

Photo Of The Week W/ Sam Hampton

2010-04-20T23:50:00.000-07:00

This week I found this photo I shot with Sam about a year ago...... This was probly one of my first photos I ever shot using more then one flash. Thought it would make a good photo of the week.

Skatepark Spot Check "Syndrome Skatepark"

2010-04-13T00:17:00.000-07:00

Sorry for the lack of updates! I have been super busy with moving down to L.A. and going to school but now that I am a little more settled I had time to do a quick update with this skatepark spot check.

This time I had the opportunity to go to Syndrome skatepark. Thanks to Micky Papa who called down and asked if we could come skate drop by for a session even though he was injured......... This park has everything you would want to skate and is for sure one of the most fun TF's. Also it was cool that they let me shoot some photos for my blog. Some companies will not let you film or shoot photos in their skateparks unless you are part of the company and doing it for a reason. Below are just a couple photos we shot, the park was so fun we ended up skating most of the time.

Enjoy,

Photo Of The Week

2010-03-24T23:26:00.000-07:00

I'm sorry with the lack of posts I have just been so busy with moving and everything I just haven't had time. So I thought I would at least post a photo of the week. This is a photo I shot with Brandon Del Bianco of a Switch BS Tail at the white rock res. I shot this last september when he was out for the Vancouver Damn Am, he decided to stay for a few weeks after to film for the up coming element canada video also featuring riders Bobby De keyzer, Will Marshall, Hugo Balek, Dave Nolan, and many more.

2010-03-17T15:56:00.000-07:00

Hey guy, sorry I have been MIA for awhile but I recently moved to California with Hayden Kelly. In the next few dyas I will update pictures of our move. Currently we have Stacy Gabriel and Js Lapierre staying with us until I start school. So in the not to distant future you can expect alot of random updates of footy and photos.

Hayden Kelly At the Kr3w TF

2010-01-23T00:37:00.000-08:00

Here is a montage I have had for awhile but have been lazy to post it. We filmed and skated the Kr3w TF right before it got torn out. We were probly the last people to ever film in there. You can even see in one of the clips how half of the park just magically disappears.

Clip OF The Week W/ Sadiq Jesani

2010-01-22T23:22:00.000-08:00

Here is some footy from awhile ago I gathered with my homie Sadiq. This guy is so good and has the style to back it up. If you ever see this guy in person you would be kinda scared because he looks so hood, but he is actually one if the nicest guys ever. Peep his clip of the week!

Clip Of The Week W/ Hayden Kelly And Michael Ray

2010-01-11T22:53:00.000-08:00

For this week I decided to throw up two clips I got the other night while skatingmy buddy Andre's benches with Hayden and Michael. I recently just had my vx1000 repaired and basically they put two of my vx1000's which were both broken and made one working one.Its super funny cause now I have a Vx1000 that is half English and half Japanese. So the clips were alittle but of a test run for my new vx. After we were done skating there is a gate in this underground parking that closes at 9 oclock, however it will open for cars that are still inside if your car can start... Yes thats right, once we were done skating and loaded up the car, thanks to Hayden who decided it would be ok to leave my door open and in turn leaves the light on in the car it drained my battery. So after calling the number of the company that owns the underground and hearing that number is not in service I ended up leaving my car in this underground over night.

Park Ranger 2009 w/ Gershon Mosley

2010-01-08T11:58:00.000-08:00

My Homie James from Kr3w just sent me a link to this video series called "Park Ranger" that himself and Gershon Mosley make. For all you older guys out there you will remember Gmos from videos like Globe Opinion and his ground breaking park in Transworld "The Reason" and for all you young kids out there just watch!

2010-01-03T17:00:00.000-08:00

Manny Santiago sent me this link to the new famous video they are working on yesterday. I must say it seems like the news years resolution for skateboard filmers is to do everything in HD for 2010. This Video along with a few others I have heard about with be 100% HD. Peep the trailer below and shout outs to Manny and everyone at Famous!

Clip Of The Week

2009-12-30T22:57:00.001-08:00

This week I found all the old footy I had from this Hubba that is super close to my house. This spot use to be pretty mellow to skate however the last time I tried to skate it we had a huge altercation and the police showed up. The good thing was the officer liked skateboarders and did not even care we were their and even that we took the railing off of the hubba. All he said was I recommend not coming back for awhile. Featured skater Hayden Kelly, Gailea Momolu, John Hanlon, and Ryan Smith.

Photo Of The Week

2009-12-30T22:08:00.001-08:00

This was just a random photo I shot with Hayden Kelly on a portland trip right before last summer. This spot is super random, its at a police station but then on the other side of the building we were told is the Nike TF skatepark. When I was unloading my gear this meter maid came up and gave me a ticket for unloading my equipment in a loading zone......Wack.

Photo Of The Week

2009-12-23T11:03:00.001-08:00

This Photo I shot in the summer with Tj Rogers. When I first showed Tj this spot he didn't know if he had anything for it, but after a few attempts he knew he could do something on it. He ended up getting more then one trick on it after a second time of going back. Don' t let this spot fool you it mite look perfect but its not in any way. First off its pretty high, second there is a drop on one side into a river, and the third thing is there is a gap when you come out you have to clear. Regardless of everything this spot has given me two really cool looking photos. Thanks for putting up with the spot Teej

Clip Of The Week W/ Wade Desarmo

2009-12-20T21:58:00.001-08:00

Photo Of The Week

Spot Check Santa Clarita Skatepark

2009-12-07T22:06:00.001-08:00

The Santa Clarita skatepark is located about 45 mins north of LA. To me it is well worth the drive. I think this has to be one of the best outdoor parks in Southern California. It has everything you would want to skate from ledges, rails, hubbas, hips and all types of tranny. The ground is beyond perfect, everything grinds and slides amazing, sometimes alittle more then you want. One of the best things about this park is it has lights. They stay on until 9 oclock every night which in the winter is awsome because of the 5 oclock darkness. The Locals are super chill, so you don't feel out of place like at some skateparks. Nothing is worse then going to a skatepark and having every local mean muggin because you ain't from there. There is also the sickest little skate shop called "Push Skateshop". Now little local shops tend to be really hit and miss when it comes to product, however this shop is on point. They have one of the best board selections, even though a small selection compared to some shops, every board is legit. So if your ever in the Santa Clarita area be sure to check out the park.

Santa Clarita park is tight as fuck. This place is fuckin' huge! One of the biggest parks I have ever been too. This park has sick ass locals too which is hard to find down there and has everything you could ask for and more. One of the better parks to slosh In the Valley. Only bad thing is that there are too many fuckin' scooter kids. Other than that its amazing. Get there while you can fool! - Hayden Kelly

2009-12-04T11:00:00.000-08:00

This photo I shot awhile ago randomly while skating this perfect ledge, the only thing is it weighs a huge amount. It took 4 of us to move it 5 feet. Once we got it to the middle of the parking lot it didn't take Dan long to land this switch noseblunt.

2009-11-16T09:49:00.001-08:00

This week I decided to put up more then one photo just because I have not put alot of posts up lately and all 3 photos were in one session. His name in James Martin, he is homie from Camarillo California. He was showing us spots one day when he took us to Franklin high and said "I wanna skate this perfect rail"....... Little did I know it was a 13. Within 10 mins he had 3 photos and 3 clips.

I'm Back

2009-11-14T21:54:00.000-08:00

Hey everyone, Sorry for the lack of posts I have just been busy with a bunch of shit.

I am Once again back in California and I have been here for the past 2 weeks. Brandon Del Bianco and Will Marshall were here aswell but left a few days ago. Tomorrow Micky Papa and Arte Lew will be joining Myself and Hayden Kelly for a bit. I am planning on updating my blog with some new things. These things will be stuff like Photo of the week, clips of the week and skatepark spotchecks. For now though here is what we do in california to avoid smelly pants that you don't want to wash everyday. What you do is turn your pants inside out and roll them up, and just simply put them in the freezer. This keeps your pants nice and crisp without fading the color and killing the bad smell and bacteria.

California Part 1

2009-08-12T21:57:00.001-07:00

On Sunday I left Vancouver and Took a venture down to California with Hayden Kelly and Andrew Classon. We got into Sacramento At about 12:30 that night, as soon as we got to into the parking lot of the Motel 6 we all got alittle excited to skate just knowing we were in California. Just as we got out of the car I quickly noticed a tour type looking van, and noticed a huge LRG sticker on it, i quickly made the joke "hey how sick would it be if that was the LRG van". After we checked into the hotel I lurked the LRG site and sure enough it said the LRG team did a demo the day before at EPIC Indoor skatepark. The next morning as I was getting ready, Hayden and Andrew went outside to play a game of skate and sure enough while they were playing skate some of the team soon heard the noise of the skateboarding and came outside to say wuddup. Once I got outside the whole team was at there van getting ready to go skate, We asked if they could help us with finding some spots, unfortunately none of them were from Sacto, however the TM said he knew someone that did, he yelled up to one of the rooms they all came out from and out came local photographer Jeff Landi, he was more then happy to give us directions to spots and within 5 mins we had a list to last us a few days. Thanks Jeff!

Victoria Trip

2009-06-11T23:08:00.000-07:00

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
