Neighbrohood.

 

Just skating some spots close to home with some homies.

Blooze, not booze.

Pat Devine has a welcome video out so I figured shit, lets post it. He's a nice fellow.

New spot, already famous.

We made our way toward Depaul for a new spot some boys told us about. Well, it has slick benches and it's a buster free spot. Did I mention new blacktop? Dig your old wheels out of the garage kids cause your new birthday Spitfires will look like your uncle changed his oil on his motorcycle and couldn't find a rag. Josh Kalis was also there too. Boom.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       and also Chaz Ortiz

Come one, Come all.

Our great friend Dave Uthus is having his photographs displayed at Lula Cafe for the next few months and we are very excited! The opening reception is this Tuesday (Aug 14th from 6-9 p.m.)! Get your ass out to Lula and peep his work and have some beers. DO IT!

Clemente Jam.

 

Uprise and a few other sponsors held an event at a local high school on Aug 3rd. They grilled meats and held contests for the kids. We sat around and chatted like a bunch of girls. I did manage to fire off a photo or two between gossip. Here it is.

Not just another face in the crowd.

Happy Birthday you big lug!

*DudeLife, not down low. Get your head out of the gutter man.

Leaving town and Ohio bound.

Jay Croft is a dam nice guy. He has always been overly pleasant and radical to the Dudelife crew. He also works for Vans as the visual rep in the midwest. He is now moving back to his home town of Akron, OH. We wish you the best in life Jay! Well be seeing ya soon. Oh, and check out Jay's project/website Streetcanoe if you happen to live in a cave and don't know about it already.
