SAN FRANCISCO: ROAD TRIP PT 2
Didn’t cop as many shots as I wish I had in SF left my camera at the telly when I went to see Huf and the dudes and my pops oh well things happen right? Here’s what I did catch pics of when I was in my city of birth SF.
Here is the coolest cat you’ll ever meet my brethren Joey Tershay aka Nick Diamonds big brother aka Mr.Ace Trucks! Joey is one of my favorite people ever and he makes great tea!
Above is John Cardiel the all time gnarliest skater hands down. I don’t know John that well but his story is amazing. John was in a really bad car accident and broke his back in several places. He was confined to a wheel chair for over a year and doctors told him he would never walk again. He’s walking,dancing and riding his bike all over the place. His story is inspirational to me and thousands of others I believe. He had the best Epicly Later’d period so good in fact they made it into a movie of sorts. Here’s a clip of Cardiel doing it
Ok I fan boyed out on Cardiel its understandable the dudes a super nice cat and was my favorite skater ever still is besides Hosoi plus he’s a big lovers rock fan and that’s my shit as well!
I went by Benny Gold’s spot chopped it up for a few. I didn’t really know Benny but we had about 100 mutual friends. Benny is a talented guy and a great designer. Really nice dude and someone who’s on his way to big things I think. Here’s some pics from Benny’s office
Some of Benny’s work!
Here’s something he did with Barry McGee thats just sick!
And speaking of Barry Mcgee peep these out:
So sick right? I didn’t shoot as much as I would have liked I spaced had a lot on my mind work and all but that said I had a great time in the bay as always cant wait to go back there and enjoy the city again!
