Collin and Ross are off on their California trip right now. In the meantime, behind their backs, I am planning on replacing these guys. Who needs a nasty ginger and a kid who can do alien clean whips and looks like a comic book character anyway? No one needs that on a team, its just bad news. There were some rad kids up at the skatepark the other day, one of whom talked down to Stevie; I think I might put them on the team to replace Ross and Collin.

Good as new!
Alright, I got my teeth fixed today, so I’m good to go…my hand still is hurting a ton, so I’ll stay behind the computer/behind the camera for the next week or so.
In other news, Collin and Ross leave for California Friday, for two weeks. I believe they are bringing their bikes, so hopefully they have some good riding footage when they get back.
I’m currently working on the website right now, so be prepared for some pleasing changes to the Crossroads site.
Busted front!
I took it really hard tonight…not even on anything cool, but just pumping around on flat. Oh well, I’ll be off the bike for a week at least (my hand hurts like hell too, plus I don’t want to risk anything). Hopefully I have a sweet new front by tomorrow. I’m just laughing about it now, my parents are too. Friend of Crossroads, L-Robs, wants me to bite her for the scarrage. Now that is how Crossroads really rolls: busting out their fronts, then biting girls. Chalk this up to another bizzare Crossroads injury: Jeremy and Collin’s split sacs, and now my broken teeth. Couldn’t have been something simple like a sprained ankle. Oh well, I’m going to sit in front of my computer for the next week and work on Crossroads stuff, maybe this will have some good come out of it.
Some great sessions have gone on the past few days…riding has been super fun lately. Random #3 is coming along well, I’m going to see how much footage we have for it and maybe throw something together today or tomorrow.
Crossroads Member Update: Three new Crossroads guys to tell you about: First are Joe Knetl and Ricky Goldsmith. Ricky got a Mirraco Black Pearl complete and has been shredding on it. I thought he was such a badass back in the day and he has been killing it ever since he started riding again. Joe began riding with Ricky and I believe he bought a FBM Stairmaster. I almost bought his T-1 Barcode back in the day, and now I’m glad I didn’t, cause he is cool to hang out with while riding. The third is Steve Valutis, Jeremy and I have been riding with him a lot lately, and he rips, so its cool to have him on the team.
Last evening we had a great session: rode Lansing for a bit then a couple of churches: Collin did a tuck over the fire hydrant at the holy banks:

We all then proceded to the church and did a team bunnyhop:
These were two of the three best. Collin’s downside whip won’t work too well for me, it won’t rotate the correct way. No clue why. If I can get it to work I’ll post it later. I’ll also resize some of the Louisville photos and upload them later.
