Why NOT get up early?

Early morning last week I met some of the crew as well as Jamie Heim for what is quickly becoming known as "The Breakfast Club" session at the Bethlehem Skate Plaza. Don't let the term club put you off, everyone is welcome, just trying to beat the heat and the crowds.

This is the first coverage my skating has gotten in awhile. I would like to thank Homebase610.com for posting it and Jamie for hooking it up. Here are the stills and sequences, Check them and the rest of Jamie's work at JHeimphotography

DJ's , LRG Video Premier, Raffles and guest bartenders from 5BORO Skateboards, as well as the release of the 5BORO x Danny Pensyl x Bethlehem Skateplaza Deck ( that will be available for purchase that night, and Danny will be in the house if you want it blessed)

"Juke Box Zeros"


The next day was the epic wind tunnel style sesh. Capped lips but great memories.
I hooked up seconds after Luke Koch closed down a gnar ollie ride out but the energy of the crew ( and a peek into the rewind camera) had me pumped.

Burn Money if ya got it.






After a couple spots it was time to get Grumpy and call it a day.

Scraps and Memory lapse

Somethings slip through the cracks. Here's what I noticed was missing. Enjoy.

The usual show car would not be missing Rea and Sean P at the Church in Philly. Real hip hop in an old school feeling room. Rea really is one of the best, even if his themes aren't your thing.


Sean P. ( if your a fan you know how thats read)


I went to the Focus show, had a great ti....I mean, networked and talked price points and trend forecasting.


If I remember proper, a bloody skater ( the injured type , not the English slang type), a hand painted deck , a focused board maybe? Oh well....I can't remember properly. Alex got punched in the face.


There is some skate ramp or something being grown in this field, we showed up to plant seeds.


Funky got the footy


Alison, Amanda,and Jana. Girls love gardening.


Kurtz is having a art show at Homebase next month. He could use some coverage. I have 2 photos I'm not sure how I got.
This is one.
