I know, I’m a couple days late with part two…. You raise a child full time and try to get things done.

After skating the Orange Grove pool we headed east to the mexi pool. I love the people’s excuses why they don’t want you to skate their pool. The best one is that they say they are going to fix it up soon. Doesn’t the photo above look like a pool that’s about to get fixed up?

Brian Jarosh, Frontside grind

The mexi pool is good. No light on the face wall. Great surface, good tranny’s and no hassles. Too bad it’s out in the middle of nowhere. But then again if it was here in San Diego it would be blown out now wouldn’t it?

Kyle Gallahger, frontside grinds all the time

Cobra, backside ollie

Looks like he’s just backside grinding huh? Yeah I know, I kind of fucked up the photo but if you look closer or pretend then you can see he’s snapping a good backside ollie.

Sizar, sidewall frontside air

Sorry, I only hung out with Sizar once so maybe I am spelling his name wrong.

Brian Jarosh, backside tailslide

How are your backside tail slides coming along on the mini ramp at your local shitty cookie cutter prefabricated disaster of a skate park coming along? Brian avoids that bullshit and takes them to the backyard.

After we skated the Mexi pool we drove out to Palm Springs and luckily by chance we had some friends from Colorado staying at a motel for the night. They put us up and we kinda blew it out. But come on! This is Palm Springs. The people are jacked here. We saw an ad that said you could rent rims for your car. In the morning I woke up on the floor to see this: Jamie Weller on a good one. Probably 5 Mimosa’s deep.

Jamie Weller, frontside tailslide

What’s funny is the guy that drank the most also skated the most and the best. By the time we got to the Salton Sea everyone was hagged. I even heard Kike say this is the most hungover he’s ever felt. And he doesn’t even drink!

WTF?

Xander Dunlap, Backside smith grind

Xander wasn’t feeling too bad himself and started trying these backside smith grinds. Out of nowhere this chick walked up asking us if we had some jumper cables. Everyone was kind of dumbfounded and said no. Jamie asked what she was doing and she said her friends and herself were filming a movie down the way? We all were wondering the same thing….. What kind of movie?

Kyle and Brian were eager to see this so called movie and went to scope it out.

Not exactly what we were expecting.

” Our my boobs big enough? “

uh huh

Bored with the movie set we went back up to the pool only to randomly run into our friend Brendan Klein. He was out their with some people from his school. Pretty random. We skated a little bit more. Checked out the artwork on the pool that said Darren Navertte cant grind and headed back to Oceanside.

THE END
