|
|
OK, I just got back from Orlando and witnessed some of the sickest wakeskating to date, and I'm not just talking about watching some of the best at the pro tour stop. There were these three kids at OWC trying 180 shuv's onto the funbox. They would ride up the transition, then throw the shuv and try to land on it on the box, then be in position to ride off. I know the one kid is Mike Decata, some kid Phil Jasper (I think) and another kid who worked there who was really good. The only one I saw successfully land one was Phil, he actually landed a couple of them. But from what I seen the other two probably have landed them also. I didn't manage to get any on tape, but I did get Mike D. ALMOST landing one, I can post it later if anyone wants to see it. I know Grubb has been doing shuv's onto flat decks and such, but five feet above the water and initiating the shuv while actually on the decking has to be a first. |

Brett, that's me in the vids (the one who works at OWC). Thanks for filming me, I had no idea anybody was around that day. Yea I've landed a couple shove-its onto the box, but Jacques Favret threw a 360 shove-it onto the box a couple weeks ago... it was sick. The first clip isn't Mike Decato, it's a kid named John. He's real good also, but hasn't been there in forever.
But hey, is there any chance you could send the files of the footage of me? |

Kyle, yeah I was there for a couple of hours that day, I was riding a 43 Cassette concave. I was sitting in my truck ready to leave and thought I had to get some footage to show my friends just how good you and your boys are. That's probably why you didn't notice me filming. Damn, 360 shuv on the box- crazy. So that kid with the silver helmet and kind of leopard vest or whatever isn't Mike Decato? Yeah, no problem, let me know how you want me to send them- you can save the files to your computer or if you want I could send you a vcr tape |

Mike D. doesn't really come out there anymore. Saving them to a computer would be best. |

or you could leave it up there and try riding without it it sounds like it might slide off most of the time. |

Actually, the PVC surface is grippy when you're not going as fast as the cable is. So yes... I had to walk up the funbox and grab my skate. |

Hey Steve. How's things up there? Just been riding more at the cable, trying to learn some new stuff, like Danny said. Getting ready for Detriot? Did it go by already? If not, then good luck. Later!
And Danny, let's not forget about you front board shove-it out, and switch big spin off the box. Sick tits. Let's hope the picnic table is out any day now. |
