Mess With Texas +Bonus

This past Friday I got my MKI. That night we decided to go to Dallas. Early Saturday morning. Rocky, Michael Payne, Jesse, Nick, Kyle, Bobby, and myself leave for Texas. After a few hours we arrive at Irving skate park. Mr. Jesse High forgot his skateboard at his house. He had to go to Index to get new trucks. Everyone shredded the park. I didn't film much because I decided to take a nap. Here are the few warm up clips, all first try I think.


After Irving Park we went and filmed at a few spots. Bobby hippie jumped a homeless person. It started getting really late. We didn't plan where we were going to stay. We ended up driving all over Arlington trying to find a hotel for around 30 dollars. All the cheap ones were very sketchy. We were in a real bad part of Arlington. We go film a clip at this gnarly quarter. Check it out!


After walkinf around Wal-Mart fora a few hours we decided on a motel. As we pulled up to park, we noticed the jeep next to us had been broken in. We move our cars and proceed to the room. As we arrive in our room there was 2 beds and 7 people. We all inspect the place. Part of the roof was seeming to cave in, there were a few graffittis in the bathroom, the bath tub was ruggid and the carpet was nasty. Jesse, Kyle, Rocky, and Michael slept on the beds. Bobby Busha slept on the wooden dresser. Me and Nick ended up crashing on the floor.

We woke up pretty early. Walked to our cars, suprizingly being untouched. We went to Mcdonalds and grubbed. Our first spot was pretty dope. Bobby messed up his hand really bad. I gave him my tie-die shirt to add more color to it. Rocky's back was hurting so he couldn't skate much. Finally after a few more spots we went to the Infmaous Block spot. It was my first time being and this place is amazing! The weather sucked though. Freezing cold and windy is not something to skate in. After checking the place out for a few hours Michael decides to try an ollie down the 9 block. Last time he had tried he hit his head pretty bad. The wind was blowing against him, which made it extremely hard to keep speed. His first try he had bailed. I was pretty sure he had this next try. The wind caught him and slowed him down. He clipped one of last blocks and his his head for the 2nd time. This pretty much ended our trip. We will return to Texas just to go to this spot when the weather starts being more generous.

Here is a bonus clip if filmed with my MKII. Enjoy!
