dot cee ayyyyyyyyyyyy

So after much work, discussion and debate we are stoked to inform you that it's time to update your bookmarks. We have shed our .blogspot.com for a sleeker, shorter and cooler .ca 

As we enter our fourth month of posting, we are stoked to have our own little chunk of the internet to call our own. Whoisfreddy.ca marks a new chapter for us, as all four of us continue to progress and face different challenges. We decided to keep our blog-style format as it seems to be all the rage across the interwebs these days. In addition, we've improved the organizational aspects of the site, and added some flashy new stuff in the banner on top and on the left hand side. Hopefully you are as stoked as we are about all this!

To help with the promotion side of things we have had new die-cut stickers made. All four of us have a batch and if you'd like one we'd be stoked to have one taken off our hands for a small fee that will help with the website fees. They come in several sizes and colors and not only raise your sex appeal, but help your tre flips too!

Sooner rather than later we hope to have some t-shirts made, so keep reminding the four of us to do that too!

I think thats all for now so happy lurking,

-Tom, Ryan, Sean and Chris

Mo Money Mo Problems

The weather has been horrible all week. So when you see sunshine hit it up outside and go skate!

For now, enjoy this clip of Ryan Lebel that was filmed seconds before he flipped out at an old lady and called her some nasty words.

If you're not confused, you're not paying attention.

First of all, if you guys haven't seen the new baker/deathwish summer tour video you definitely should. You can watch it here:
I know its been like two weeks since I've updated but I'm posting now, and its not just a single clip, its a montage. So that kind of makes up for it. I'm working decent hours now so I'll be out skating more often which is rad. The montage I'm posting has a combo of kimble and moncton skatepark footage. Skaters in order of appearance: Mark Feero, Mike Bennett, Eric Corbin, David St-Pierre, Corey Mazerolle, Steven Steeves, and Ferris Asante with additional filming by Zack Davis. Not too much else is happening really so for now I'll just post this little montage for you guys to enjoy and I'll see you at the park.

So the blog hasn't been updated in a lil while but Don't Worry, we have been primarily focusing on developing the site so expect something new soon!

Anyways..I had the opportunity to take a skate trip down to P.E.I. for a skate trip/competition last Saturday. Joel drove Stefan Curtis, D.J. Burns, Skippy and myself down for the day and despite the 8 hours of driving it was an awesome time.

L-O-L

I almost couldn't believe a little news piece I read earlier this week about Jereme Rogers, but apparently it was all true. See here, and read this blog post about the whole thing. Any respect that could be possibly mustered up for this guy after he started promoting his 'rap career' has officially been lost. What a joke.

Anyway, Kurtis Shea Switch Hardflip, jeeeaaaa

Taking Care of Business

Kurtis, Chris and I were out again the other night, shooting on campus. Kurtis got his trick fast, and we still had some daylight to work with so I suggested we head back to the spot I was writing about in this post. This time we went prepared, prepared our gear next door, and then walked over. Kurtis got the ollie first try, and just as he was lining up for a second shoot we were kicked out. Mission accomplished.



Cheers,

En Why See

I havn't been out filming that much lately, but I've been at NYC way too much. The reason being is that I live pretty close and it's very easy to just go there and be able to skate all day hassle free. Anyways, I've been racking up some pretty decent park footage so I thought I'd make a montage, not as good as it could be but whatever.

Skater's in no particular order: Brandon Young, Kurtis Shea, Justin Martin, Tom Bateman, Ryan Lebel, Conor Atkins and Eric Doucet

Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow.

I still haven't been getting out to skate that much. The park is far to skate to, there isn't really anything to skate around where I live let alone in Fredericton. Its too bad we don't have more spots, more specifically good spots that provide different obstacles like ledges/stairs.

I did manage to get out with Lebel the other day and he got this trick (posted below). We also went into a shoppers drug mart where he said "look theres my mom". Knowing he was joking I continued to walk and all I heard was lebel yelling. "hey mom!" the lady turned around and I laughed because the woman actually turned around when he yelled "hey mom!". Unfortunately the joke was on me because it actually was his mom. Live and learn with Lebel I guess.
