sick shit straight outta munich and austria
Allright, finally I was motivated enough to publish a post. There is still a lot of more stuff to upload, so the next days you will see a video from munich, a video from mainly my homeramp (viet anh and me) and the pictures from the sick ass FALLEN RIDE THE SKY premiere where Jamie Thomas, Chris Cole, Slash, Tommy Sandoval were on the spot. I will tell you more about that later. These pictures are from a trip to munich and Austria I did a while back. Maybe 4 weeks, it was in the end of july when the summer break was ending. I went there alone since Viet anh could not affort it. I stayed at the little flat of my aunt's boyfriend. The first day we just went to the Biergarten (like almost every night). Biergartens are really great because people of all ages go there to eat and drink bear. Groups of people who drank something are way more enjoiable than groups in the city. The first real day I took a train to Austria. The first park I went to was in Wörgl and was already pretty good. To me, a skatepark on a clean big river in front of those huge mountains is too idyllic (allright, sorry for all the wrong spelling), but the skatepark was nice. I just stayed there for about an hour and left with the guy on the airwalk and bsindy picture to brixlegg. Brixlegg is the park where all the pictures besides Daniels (The dreadlock guy I met later) are taken. I went there twice, the second time with Daniel who I met in munich a day after my first visit to Brixlegg. Confusing, I know. So, I guess I do not have to talk about the park a lot because you just have to look at it to know how a skatepark should look like! Great bowl with different heights, a variety of street obstacels and creative ideas like the water gap! The park in munich was smaller, but great too. You can see it in the video I am gonna upload the next days. That is where I met Dani. I spent the following 3 days with him. At Brixlegg we grilled and I ate some meat (what I usally don't do). Some beer and some food. Great. What sucked that we put so much of this dry grass in the fire, that the whole skatepark was full of smoke. Then the locals complained and gave us some of their coal. Very nice locals, by the way. The last day I went to Daniels local miniramp. That is where he does the bs boneless. I sucked very hard since I was skating 3 days in a row (and a lot every day), but Daniel totally killed it with a mix out of funny/oldschool stuff, some long grinds and "stunts" like the boneless things or a fs ollie over the channel (see it in the video). All in all, a great trip, new friends, new spots, new experiences, a long train journey back and unwashed hair with was hard to comb after. What more can you wish for. And sorry that I did not upload pictures of Wörgl, maybe another day. Äh, the wood park and the concrete are both brixlegg, I hope you understood that. And the opening picture was in munich, I totally love that picture.

Bright tradeshow frankfurt summer 2008
here are some pictures from the bright tradeshow. It's fuckin' huge and there is so much shit going on. We skated the whole time and went maybe into 3 of the endless exhibition rooms. Last day I hurt my back and that is the reason why I am sitting here, I didn't skate for 9 days weather sucks but I would still have skated my ramp or something. By the way the guy who does the blunt and stealfish is Robin wulf, (I am not sure about it) and the drop in guy is omar salazar. Timbo who I know for like 4 years does the overcrooked in the park under the brigde. I skated a lo t in this steep quater (blunt picture) and in the bowl. Who cares, there are many reviews and again, no room for another shitty one. the only thing I can say that for an unsponsored skater it's fucking sick to skate with skateboarders appearing in magazines frequently or even with proffesional skateboarders. very cool days. The picture where viet an h is lying shows how stupid we were: we came to the bowl, and skated worse than everybody and still made jokes and laughed about ourselfs. Everybody carved in the cradle and came out fast as hell but we came out even slower than before or slammed. Still proud that we did it.

My ramp: the first sessions
This is the infamous miniramp. I love it and I already had some good sessions in it. I am thinking about looking for another coping, but that can wait... I am happy that I can do pretty good blunt to fakies and airs in it. It's pretty steep and maybe 5 foot high. Good to do airs, I learned lien airs on my first or second day on accident trying lien to tail. I am sad that viet anh is leaving to America because he would be there to skate it all the time. By the way, Viet anh is the coolest Skater anyways, he is all about skating, no matter where how when or who's looking, it's hard to find somebody like him... The tricks are: Smith, blunt to fakie, lien to tail, sw heelflip, iceplant, 5:0 (it was actually a bs smith). Everybody is welcome to skate as long as he calls before or rings the doorbell, when I am there we have a good sesh and drink some beer what can be cooler???
Thanks to my dad and the boyfriend of my aunt, who made this dream possible for me...
firstpostyeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaahhhhh
Allright this my first post of my new blog. I used to have another one www.10monthsofamerica.blogspot.com and this one sucked but it covers my ten months exchange student experience in amercia (it covers a small amount of it). This one now is gonna cover my views I mean things I have seen outside and inside my mind or at least almost seen or sometimes found somewhere where somebody else has seen it (a video from somebody else for example). It is in english so more people can understand.
My life might be boring to everybody and the reason for this is that I am just a usal 17 year old and this is boring to everyone but me (allright, even to me sometimes and sometimes a little bit more), so this blog has simply no reason and you can call me bloggerwithoutacause or something stupid like that but at least I can improve my self esteem and show the world a real cool alternative 17 year old who isn't even cool in real life but in the blog so when I can be cool here and not in life it doesn't matter = blogspot is the new real life and real life becomes the blogspot where I sometimes update in the way of eating and drinking or going to school....
Since I skate a lot, listen to music, hang out with my girlfriend, chill with my friends and talk shit you will see a lot of skate related pictures and scripts, some music cd lyrics or tracks or whatever, my girfriend and things we do (not THE THING you dumbass are thinking about), maybe my friends sometimes and a bunch of shit, talked and taken on pictures.
My grammar sucks do not complain please.
I am happy about every comment no joke I am gonna write back if there is something to write back but as long I realize somebody checked it out I am happy.
