Lafayette trip

Today Coleman, Junar, Josh, J ross, Nick, David and myself went to Lafayette.


After driving past purdue into the middle of bumfuck egypt, we finally got to campus and started to ride the brick banks at the library. Coleman got a flat straight out of the bus, which was shitty and set the curse for the day. He went back to the cars with junar (thank god because my dumbass left the keys in my car with it running!) They met up with Andrew Clinkscales and one of his friends who showed us around campus. We also met up with some other random kids who didnt really do much. Alot of good footy was collected at the banks today (multiple sessions throughout the day) for the april edit. Heres a little taste of what went down...




Josh-Wallride



Josh-Fakie Wallride



Nick- Hip Whip

Then we cruised through campus, Nick rode down a rail and David feebled it to switch 180. Both guys had to do a run up from the inside of the building with josh holding open the doors. David decided to try this man sized rail and died. Then he got up and did this.



David-Feeble

Then the posse went over to the mellow black rails.


David tried a switch front peg on the rail back wheel swinging over the other side and got destroyed. First try was a bad digger and the other had the same result except he ended up rolling and smashing into a car's front bumper.


David- Mid-Death


In the process he sprained his ankle pretty bad and was in loads of pain. Junar ended up driving David home which was a really nice thing to do. Junar, you are a good guy, sorry you missed out on the rest of the day, we all owe you one. David's mom checked it out and he didn't break it so hopefully a bit of time and ice will fix him up. P.S. David- I know you were planning on screen printing the storm trooper for the shirts, but I think rodent/ink pen thing at the top of the blog is badass... eh?

Josh tried to get a double peg to switch 180 but couldnt quite get it. Expect that soon at the rate he has been progressing.




Josh-Double Double

In other josh news, he can wall ride the snot out of anything and everything.


Josh-stair wallride

Some time in all these happening, Clinkscales got a flat and we all bombed this crazy hill brakeless through traffic down to a bike shop. While he was fixing his bike....



J ross- Jersey Icepick

We rode around a bit more, Josh got a flat and then got some crazy ass tube from one of the nerd locals that weighed at least 2 lbs it was crazy, The tube actually bounced by itself when it had air in it, it was so thick. All the locals left and went home, so Andrew showed us a few more spots and killed every one. Too bad David wasnt around to man the camera, light was dying out and I sucked.



Andrew C.- Rail Gap to Wall



Andrew C.- Bump Jump 180 up

After riding some curved walls (which Andrew rides at mach 12.4, check the edit for proof,) he did this retarded gap to wall thing. Its over 6 feet, past a 4 set to a tiny ledge on the wall. The photos just dont do it justice.







Andrew C.- Crazy Wallride
After an extremely agressive MC donald session, we finally got back to anderson, only to have the 4runner break down a mile from my apartment. We pushed it back bobsled style the whole way with nick riding on the bumper and talking shit for a good portion of that. Good times. Grill out session at the anderson park tomorrow, be there.

Thats all folks.
