So, this was suppose to also be a skate trip…But don’t get your hopes up…
The dudes on the trip:



Jon also felt it was necessary to be a creep and snap these ones on the way too:


And these:


There were a ton of people at Ed’s show. And I gotta say, some people had some pretty good B.O.
While we waited to talk to Ed, Jon got inspired by the photos on the wall and decided to try a little photog action of his own:

We brought Ed a custom SunnySide Tee!

He was super stoked…said it made his night! Scope it over at the Toy Machine Site

Jon told Ed how me and Alex have the same birthday as him. Same year too!!

And Jon is convinced that Ed looks bummed in this photo…Probably cause Jon’s birthday is May 25th. What a loser.

Look who else was there again!

With the drive, that was a pretty exhausting day. So we got some pizza, from some girl who thought we ordered off the menu funny and said she was “about to bust!” After feeling scared and weirded out by that, we headed back to the Super 8!!
Guess Alex liked the idea of me and Jon sharing a bed, enough to take a photo of it…Or it could have been my sick beanie steeze.

Saturday rained all day, which sucked. We drove city to city trying to beat the downpour to the skate park, but we always lost.
We got word of an indoor skatepark from Jordan, but when we got there it was covered in clearance racks and stacks of 20 dollars shoes.
We ended up skating a ledge spot under an overhang. The one dry place we could find all day.
We did get some bird footy for the SunnySide version of Mind Field though, so that’s good.

This one is through Alex’s binocs!

Sunday we finally did get to skate 3 parks. One in Brea, which was pretty fun. One in Chino, which sucked cause the good Chino park was still closed for the rain. And one in Corona, which sucked too. Don’t take AZ or Utah parks for granted..Or the fact that we don’t have to worry about getting hassled by the po-po for not wearing pads.
And of course, we didn’t film anything! It wouldn’t be SunnySide if we weren’t blowing it all the time right?
Here’s a photo from after we skated the Brea park, though…so that’s pretty close.

The End.


dude where are my photog credits over the pics??? im about to bust…. no…. but seriously…
Dang Derek, I bet you think you’re tattooed, but you know what? You aint tatted out..
Did you get permission from my agent to put my picture up on your blog? I’m going to sue if you don’t take it off.
Neil, two comments in one day! Didn’t know you were such an avid SunnySide fan too! Yes I have your agent’s permission. And yes, it’s true, I’m not really “tatted out.”
I just busted… if you haven’t busted yet, i dont recommend it… its very uncomfortable
alex if i could poke you on this site i would
