Aaron Suski, one of the best dudes to travel with. He literally killed this spot when he skated it, meaning this rail isnt there anymore, he destroyed it. This photo is a recent photo, film style, which is in the FREE ISSUE you can download on Itunes right now. Skateboarder is now available for your Ipad and Iphone so go download the app now.
Suski, back tail.

Heres a retro post featuring the one and only Keegan Sauder from a RVCA trip a while back. Good for a Monday post I figured… Check back Thursday for more film photos.

First try is sometimes the worst try… Straight to tail bone, took him out for the first few days of the trip…

But he was shralpin in no time… Smith in some deep end tranny.

Danlu’s been on a tear lately, and the brand new issue of Skateboarder is proof of that. He knows he has an interview coming out, but somehow we were able to keep it under wraps that he was getting his first cover too. So when the advance copies of the new magazine showed up to the office we hatched a little plan to get all of the homies over to Collin Provost’s house in Long Beach for a little surprise cover party. We got him… We got him good.
He’s handed the box… and with it his very first cover.
Literal brostyle… Dan’s brother Andrew made it on the cover too.
All the bro’s jumped right into Dan’s interview.
Toy Machine camera man Kevin Barnett and Joshua Harmony.
Ryan Spencer.
David Reyes approves
Matt B instantly grams it
Assistant (to the) Vans TM Griffin Collins
“oh… he’s grinding DOWN it…”
What are we grilling?
Bros
Cheeseburger
Cash
Pong
Collin relaxes in his new yard
Griffin’s on the new shit
Collin builds
Marquise shows up
and off to the bar…
Dakota
Cuates Chris
Risking teeth
Somehow we crashed a birthday party…
Someone got tagged
After that its all a blur… Congrats to cover man Daniel Lutheran. Pick up his interview when it comes out!
