I just finished the Rollerblade edit from Barn Burner.
We dedicated it to Josh Waggoner after his horrible accident that took place last week. As you know Tom Hyser is manager of the team and was close friends to Josh.
Julian Bah, David & Tom didn’t make it out to seattle for the comp. So it’s only Richie Velasquez, Rob G, and myself in this edit.
Jeff Dalnas, Richie Velasquez and Rob Guerrero warming up for 2008’s Barn Burner. Check the Barn Burner results / more media.
Edited by Rob Guerrero. Filmed by Adam Johnson, Jeromy Morris, and Michael Garlinghouse.
Song is by Bonobo “Walk In The Sky” off of the album “Days To Come.”
Here is the first edition of the Controlled Accidents monthly series. Every month an edit will go up and its contents will depend upon my location and environment. This particular edit was inspired by Lawrence Kansas and Kansas City Missouri. I have been here for the past month pretty much just blading and being influenced by a positive crowd.
Lots of nights spent at the Lawrence skatepark shredding around with my ipod an maybe 3 or so skateboarders. I prefer skating at night to day. My theory for the enjoyment of night skating is that for the most part all the lighting if focused only on the park. This may help in reducing distractions, and sharpening focus on obstacles at hand. Maybe there is something to be said about the quality of energy in the day as opposed to the night and how those differences influence you.
For this edit Footage was contributed by Michael Garlinghouse, Adam Johnson, and Jeromy Morris. I think one of the clips that was used in his video “The Birdz and the Beez.” Other clips he provided of Jeromy Morris and Jero I don’t believe were used. All of Brandon’s clips were used in “Zombie Comatose,” by Adam Johnson.The intro was made randomly during a Stay with Jeromy Morris. He had a peep hole from a door (no idea why) and thought it would be a good idea to use it as a fisheye. He was right, and I ended up using it. It was also filmed on a cannon “elph” handheld digital still cameras, which I thought was suprisingly good.
Waking up to fruit smoothies in the morning is a beautiful thing. Thank you Quinn! Another beautiful thing is Jeromy’s Daughter Opal. She is the prettiest little sponge always soaking everything around her in. Shes got her fathers crazy eyes and a crazy gaze to match.
Thats all for now..if I think of more I’ll put in…input.
