What a frickin day. We loaded the quarter pipe in the back of my truck the night before. The next morning when I got on the freeway it worked as an excellent sail. There were only a couple of us there until about 11, so 5 of us were skating. I got broke off 3 times in less than an hour. One of which I thought I was done for the day. It's not often that the sole of my shoe looks up to the sky at the mercy of my ankle and this was just such an occasion.

The Broke crew showed up and ripped. Marcelle Johnson put the hammers down on the quarter pipe. James Washington popped switch heels over a trash can like he was ollieing off a curb. Cory had his glory too with a massive air over the quarter pipe. I'd say it was a success once again. Somehow we plowed through over 150 beers before it was over.

Thanks again and keep checking back for the next session.

Stoked for you Emery and Athena. It was a fun wedding. The party bus rocked. You two are awesome. Sorry for the delay but here they are.

Party Bus







McElroy Wedding

I crashed my car, filled up every memory card I had, all of my batteries died, and was dead exhausted by the end of the day. But damn it was fun.
I had the pleasure of photographing my friend Jenn's wedding. She's a girl that I have skated with in Santa Barbara for over 3 years. Mike and Jenn are a couple of cool people that I hope to know for years to come. Partly because they now live in Humbolt which is half way to Burnside, but more importantly because they are just 2 very happy people and it's cool hanging out with happy people.
Cheers

National Go Drinking Day

















At long last, here are the 4th of july photos. Thank you Greg and Derek Hooker and the rest of the family. Everyone else that contributed CHEERS! from beginning to end we endured 15 hours of drinking with about 7 hours of skating. I'm stoked on all the photos and all the memories. I'm sorry it took so long but I had 700 photos to edit in between the rest of my life. Here are a few samples. The rest are at zachpetschek.com/july4th2007
