“This is by far the biggest drop I ever took off a rail”. - Connor O’Brien.

Card Description: Connor O’Brien, 19 years old, San Diego California, 7 years of skating.

Without wheels: I would probably be: a) one of those surfers bros who constantly conforms to be cool, b) More inclined to pursue my acting career on the hit show “Dawson’s Creek”, or c) A ladies’ man.

Looking forward: The Remz Tour, a summer to chill and skate with my friends, and eventually graduating college.

San Diego/ Los Angeles California - November 2021. While traveling to SoCal to cover the tenth annual Blading Cup event, we teamed up with Justin Brasco along the way for another fun short piece. Filming with a broken hand and on a whim with last minute planning, I’d say we did pretty good with this one. Justin has been a frequent mainstay here on butterTV and we have plenty more in the works so stay tuned. Cheers! - ButterTV.com.

Welcome to the second episode of The Vault on the Then And Now Youtube channel. Each episode of The Vault features raw footage from one tape in my collection. I have nearly 400 VHS-C, Hi-8, and MiniDV tapes that I am archiving and sharing with the world. In this episode, Jon Elliott, Wes Driver, and I drove to Bakersfield, California, to visit Matt Mickey and Intuition Skateshop. This trip took place sometime in 2005 when I was filming for Sleaze, the Vicious Bearings team video.

This episode features the skating of Jeff Stockwell, Connor O’Brien, Ben Schwab, Ryan Northway, Matt Mickey, and Joey Graziano. The footage was filmed back in 2001 in San Diego, California, and Austin, Texas.

Nearly one year ago, just after Blading Cup 2016, Cameron Talbott dropped me a line like “Think me and Sean Keane could get some pics and clips if we came to SD after the Cup?” The answer was a resounding YES! So for three days in November Sean Keane, Cameron Talbott, and Sean Macgowan and I prowled San Diego for interesting spots.

Thanks of course to Chris Couture and Logan Fowell for the prime hook ups that wasn’t as hard as it cane be, now sit back and watch two of today’s most talented bladers put our town through its paces.
