Vanderhoof WebBoomSpots.com film set

A couple of weeks ago while at the ‘Hoof, Dave Ghent was approached by a stranger (not the first time, I gather) who asked if he’d be willing to perform on camera. Dave being his usual horizontal self was completely unfazed by this request and politely declined, referring the gentleman in question to his favourite demo monkey, yours truely.

Fast forward two weeks and I’m sat under a tree at the Hoof helping to film an advertisement for Boom Web Spots by skating the bowl being filmed by a cranecam. I love rollerblading.

I had to say two lines, then jump into the bowl. I can’t act for shit, so I bumbled my way through as fast as possible to get to the skating.

Victoria Day Disarray.

What could be better than a long weekend to mark the beginning of what is looking to be a great summer in Toronto. All of the blokes, hardheads, and crackerjacks made it out to a rousing session at Ellesmere Park and Garrison Creek yesterday. If it is any indication of what is to come, how can we not be excited for this summer. We seem to slowly be taking over every park and spot we go to. Busted shins (Jay Smith), dirt covered tees (Jong), and the smell of rendered pigs aside, the skating went off like last nights fireworks. Full size pics at our Flickr link.

Jay ‘The Karate Kid’ Smith gets low on a backside unity.

Guy saw Star Trek before the session, and busted out this vulcanized 720. Come back to Earth buddy!
