Vigilante (vĭjə-lăn) (plural vigilantes) Noun

1. One who takes the law into one’s own hands

A vigilante is a person who ignores due process of law and enacts his own form of justice when he deems the response of the authorities to be insufficient.

In US history, originally a member of a ‘vigilance committee’, a self-appointed group to maintain public order in the absence of organized authority, especially in Western frontier communities. Early vigilante groups included the ‘Regulators’ in South Carolina in the 1760s and in Pennsylvania 1794 during the Whiskey Rebellion. Many more appeared in the 19th century in frontier town.

Transition (trăn-zĭshən, -sĭsh-) (plural transitions) Noun

Passage from one form, state, style, or place to another.

Passage from one subject to another in discourse

A passage connecting two themes or sections.

  1. A period during childbirth that precedes the expulsive phase of labor, characterized by strong uterine contractions and nearly complete cervical dilation.
  2. To make a transition.
  3. To change from defense to offense or offense to defense

So fun. Just a little moderation to an existing spot can go a long way.

The channel was fun. Key word: was

Luke’s carport before: My friend was renting this house forever and always talked about wanting to have something there to skate. He had the crippler but thats another story for another day. Well Luke went to work one morning and came home to this; 4 friends ripping up his carport with a bunch of broken bags of concrete ready to by used. Just used the existing bricks, dog piss and turds for structure.

Luke’s carport after: No idea that it would turn out like this.

It was harder to skate then it looks.

Fact: A different kind of vigilance was called for in the West of the Gold Rush days. On the waterfront of San Francisco, a “Barbary Coast” of disreputable service industries had sprung up, providing intoxicating beverages, games of chance and skill, houses of ill-repute, and generous opportunities for violence and mayhem. To bring the Barbary Coast under control, respectable citizens formed a Vigilance Committee in 1851. By 1860, members were being called by the Spanish name vigilantes.

Exploited ditch: Right under your nose we were putting a lot of work into this piece of shit spot. Like a broken record these photos give it no justice.

The transition from cause to effect, from event to event, is often carried on by secret steps, which our foresight cannot divine, and our sagacity is unable to trace. — Joseph Addison (1672-1719

Wall was good till it got sledged over… That’s the thing with VT. Doesn’t always last.

Ruined before ever ridden. Guess everyone doesn’t like VT.

So you got it figured out what VT is now? Good. Now go make some. It doesn’t take much. Who cares if you don’t know what your doing. You gotta know everything before you try it? It’s all about trial & error. What you geek it on is what you will learn from. Have some fun. -Brooks
