"Diamond in the back, sunroof top, diggin in the scene with a gangster lean"

A few weekends back, I went on a skate mission to the Peninsula with Sean Renos and Chris Long.  We were rolling straight William DeVaughn steez -- “Diamond in the back, sunroof top, diggin’ in the scene with a gangster lean” -- in Sean’s’ big body Cadillac, complete with plush maroon leather seats.  All he’s missing are some curb feelers, which I plan to gift him with soon.

Sean’s originally from the Peninsula and offered to take us to some cutty spots he knew of.  I jumped at the opportunity.  It’s always nice to get out of the city for a minute.  It does the mind and body good. 

Sorry, I promised I wouldn’t disclose the location of either two spots.  As my fellow wood-pushers know, in 2009, good street spots are about as rare as a $3 bill.

In other news…

As of today, my wife is officially full-term -- 37 weeks, meaning Stan Man can very well be born any day now, so don’t be surprised if the updates come to a sudden halt.  I’m expecting my hands to be more than full.

Big congrats to my friend Brian Tucci on the in-depth feature the "Washington Post" ran about him in last Sunday's paper.  That's HUGE!  Click HERE to check it out.

Hope you all had a wonderful holiday weekend…

Sean R. executes a flawless backside bluntslide.  He must have landed this seven or eight times in a row.  

Chris Long...

Sean was blasting MASSIVE ollies to fakie on this bank buried deep in the heart of the Peninsula.
