The other day I dropped by Lanier High School where its skate club was holding an after-school session. The club is in its second year and boasts a strong membership among Lanier students. They skate together on campus at least once a week, and this session boasted a special guest. No-Comply shop owner, Jake Nunn, came by to ride and hand out stickers and sun glasses. Here are some photos from the session.

Rock and Roll Hall of Famers, JFA, play this Saturday with ANS and Bark Hard.

Phone calls came in fast and furious this evening reporting a Chaz Pineda sighting at Round Rock. Utter carnage. Can’t imagine what next month’s pro contest is going to be like at Mabel Davis. As a reality check, I phoned up Bob Burnquist using the number he gave me when I bumped into him at Whole Foods a few months ago. I told him Chaz has been riding Mabel Davis regularly and asked him if that would pose a challenge for him at the Thrasher-sponsored competition. Here’s a recording of his response.
