boy racer.

New stuff! While I may not be a true skate photographer (a la O'Dell) I thought that I ought to get some pictures in before Theodore left. I did, now they are here. Enjoy. Or don't, I mean, whatevs.

He was a sk8er boi/I said see you later boi:


When we stared it was still a bit light out.

It got darker periodically. (Within a period of about five minutes or so actually.)

Ooooh, nice. But in all honesty, he probably didn't nail the landing. Ted was a bit "rusty." (Ed. note-I'm not being a hater, Ted' the one who said he was rusty, i.e. the quotation marks.)

"Uh, it gets hot when you skate. Let me take my jacket off." For optimal humor, this should be said in a Napolean Dynamite with a Canadian accent type manner. (Don't forget the hoser "eh?" at the end. So essential.)

That seal sculpture/water pump in the back was amazed...at Ted's ability to bust his ass. Zing!

FYI, he probably fell on this one too. The videos are dark, sorry about that. I should have brought a Mag-Lite or someting, maybe next time. Oh yeah, and maybe next time I shouldn't sound like a such an exited little fan boy when some one makes a trick too.







Hopefully you are using Mozilla Firefox when you look at this site. Because then you can see this (and all of the other) picture(s) in it's/their original size(s) and observe Ted rocking fucking the eye of the tiger!


Manual!

There are two types of Ted falls:
a.) A thunderous thud onto the ground. Usually causes a loud groan and "aww, shit."
b.) Ballerina status. (Pictured below.)


El Theodore almost decapitated two little Mexican children like, the third time he did this. The funny thing is, the moms were all "Don't worry about it, keep the sesh going." Awesomeness ensued. Canadians just bring out good vibes like that.

Because Young Edward was not able to complete the ollie/manual/ollie triplicate, we headed to where the arrow in the back pointed.

Across the way from Bronx High School of Science.

This shit was like, half a centimiligram wider than the width of the wheels. It looked scary.

There were a few of these. (No big thuds, thank goodness.)

Yaaaaaaay! It looks almost like Ted is just posing and not moving here. He is (moving, that is, not posing.)


+p.s.

More phots from the sesh lite that went down on Ted's last night here. Additionally, us fanning out on the moon the same night.
