Xander got em too… Then he backed it up with grinding light-death. For you unhip pool bro’s that means grinding over the light and the deathbox at once. Now I guess I could of shot a sequence of this. But do you really want to look at a 40 frame seq? Maybe you do…..  Sorry, I dont.

The skateparks were packed and pretty wack being the weekend and all. I love it how parents use the skateparks as day care centers…. So we decided to hit up this ditch we got directions to.   Steve Galicia with a melon over the hip. This place was pretty fun. But then again I love shitty ditches…

Day in the life of Jivaro in AZ part two.

 

 

az-landscape.jpg
Why we came here: Arizona’s scenery. This place is beautiful…

 

 

 

 

snowflake-and-dickson.jpg
So I left off with part one with us having a few more hours in the van until we got to Phoenix. As the road sodas were being finished up we arrived. Well as we drove into Phoenix area we started to realize that we hadn’t lined up a place to stay yet. So everyone started to make some calls, but no luck. I guess everyone was in San Diego at the Black Fly’s booth or taking shots with Biker Sherlock or just did not want to deal with 12 dudes… We couldn’t find a place to stay. Lucky Xander’s good pal Ben Dickson was cool enough to put us up for a few days……

First things first. We needed some more papers so we stopped by Blaze…

While it was raining every day last week and most people were having serious bro down sessions at the trade show I decided to hop in the Jivaro Wheels van and head out to Arizona for a few days…

 

 

jivaro-sticker.jpg
If you were at the trade show you might over hear someone say something like ” that’s some excellent p.o.p” - Which means placement of product. Pretty cool huh? Here’s an example of some Jivaro p.o.p

Dodging the rain..

 

 

 

pool-pit-stop.jpg
Pit stop number one was at a known pool that had been going on for some time. Wasn’t sure if it was still skateable we decided to check it out anyways… Cause you know JIVARO is all hardcore and stuff.

gila-pool.jpg
Still skateable. Just not today. Pussies or not, no one wanted to start the trip bucketing this shit water. I sure didn’t….

 

 

start-bucketing.jpg
Salba would of……or not. Shit maybe you would of. But then again you didn’t smell it. Trust me, different circumstances it would of got cleaned. Just wasn’t happening on this day.
