BUSTED IN SF!

I was recently in SF on vacation with my better half. I spent the past week enjoying the chillier weather, amazing food, and infamous street skating that the Bay Area had to offer. While there I decided to visit the new skate park located in the Mission district and it was there that I saw the one, the only...

Dennis Busenitz.

I was unexpectedly "star-struck" and quickly grabbed my phone to take a few no-look photos of the German Ubermensch honing his craft. After a couple quick snaps, I put my phone back in my pocket, playing it off like I had just ignored a phone call, and kept skating. The park was super fun, and watching Busenitz skate in real life was beyond incredible...the guy can literally do anything he wants to do on a skateboard!

 When I inspected the photos later, I realized I wasn't the only one who knew I was fanning out...



 BUSTED!

 Keep rippin' DB, you are amazing.

I'm super sad to see our friend Sam Korman leave, but I'm super excited for his move to Italy.

Hope to see you sooner than later. For now here's some random stuff that I filmed during the last few weeks, including a sick Sam ender. -Worful

MISSION: TIMPOSSIBLE

Recently Tim Ward filmed a trick at an AZ park and posted it online. He labeled it an impossible. However critics are saying that it was in fact nothing more than a 360 shuvit. Distraught, Tim left town on a mission to the midwest. His mission: to skate with as many friends at as many spots as possible, and to flirt with as many girls as possible. The mission was a success, but will he EVER live down what the media is calling "Impossiblegate?" Only time will tell. -Worful
