Massive shoutout to my homie Randy for wanting to make an appearance at the end. We’re back!… Sort of. We’re off to a start. Not a good start, just a start. Michael Kraft has been gone all summer, so it was nice to see him again. Anthony Medina has been in Europe. Some of the squad was in Oklahoma. And we have some new faces as well. Overall, it was a good day. I’m happy to see the crew back together again. Was very high, mellow handicap rails the best idea for a first spot?… No.
Was the abandoned building any better? No. That’s fine. I just wanted to get back in the groove. I had been stressed to start working on this project again. I had all of these wild ideas over the summer. I thought I wanted to do some really outlandish, very “youtube’y” type stuff. I wanted to kick it up a notch. I felt some sort of pressure to… I dunno. Keep evolving? As the time got closer to start Jumbo back up again, I realized I was trying to do “too much.”
I had wanted to do all of these silly challenges, with consequences… I wanted to do so much more than just skate. That was never the point I’d first wanted to make when starting the channel. This was just for skating… I don’t know why I wanted to make it into so much more than that. Skating by itself is good enough. - Cody Sanders.

The Standard team (Brian Weis, Yandriel Silverio, Stefan Brandow) came to visit this past week from Thursday-Sunday. When Stefan Brandow had brought this up to me a couple of months ago I had warned him: “you need to come before summer. It’s impossible to skate after june”. Working though scheduling conflicts, somehow we got everyone in the same place for a few days here in Austin, Texas. […] - Cody Sanders.

Episode 5 - The Short one
It turns out, it’s hard to film a full edit when you show up to the session with only 8% of battery on the camera. Is this my fault? Yes. Do I have a good excuse? Always. But this one is actually good though. I got to go to Disney World last weekend. I didn’t get back until 4am the night before the Saturday session, but I still tried my best to come out and film what we could. It was really fun, for the time I was there. That little bank to rail spot is a hidden gem.
Heath Burley died on the second spot and Andrew got a really sick clip, just playing around (as usual). Overall, not much to say about this one. It’s just skating mostly, but that’s ok. They can’t all be big hitters…. I mean… None of them are, lol. The goal was accomplished. “Wake up, make something.” - Cody Sanders.
Episode 6
Michael Kraft makes me feel like I don’t even know how to skate. I’m pretty sure he did 3 never before done tricks this weekend. Some of them aren’t in the edit (sadly), but I’ve never seen anything quite like it. I feel like I’m watching the doors open to a new era of skating. It’s like watching a new genre of music be created.
Whenever it comes to all the wheel swivel stuff, I get that some people don’t understand it. I mean hell, I barely do and I like the stuff. I can hear those “hammer-types” thinking “I don’t like all the nimbly bimbly dance skating. I feel like the invention of “glides” can change that thought process. It takes the precision movement of flat-ground skating and turns it into a maneuver that looks more umm… classically understood. It’s like a grind… Except it’s a “glide.” What’s a glide, you ask? I didn’t know til last Saturday either. Apparently that’s the genus for the wheel slide stuff:
- Grind: soul plate
- Slide: frame
- Glide: wheel
I kind of like that it takes the letters from both “Grind” and “slide” to create it’s name. Fitting. I’m really just rambling at this point. I’m not even the right guy to be writing about this kind of stuff. Anyways. Only 2 spots on this drizzly day, but they were both super fun. The best kink rail in Texas was uncapped recently. Shoutout to whoever did that. It felt like 2002, watching everyone line up at the top of a kink rail to session it as a group. Overall, amazing session. Great energy all around. Saturdays are the best. - Cody Sanders.
