Filming til the sun comes down



Now that Emile, Tony, Isaac, and Bryce are living in Bellingham for the year, they've still got some time to get those last minute bangers on film. Here's a shot from a session that ended just a couple of hours ago.

DB Team Skimboarding, Filming, Chilling Hard

The DB Skimboards team has been filming a ton lately. WA has had a warm September and we have been taking full advantage of it getting sessions in at Chambers, Dumas Bay, White Rock and more. The boys have been destroying features and there bodies. Tony (aka tone diesl) got taken out for a while with a shin/knee explosion with the front of our A-frame (aka baby frame). Bryce is still feeling his bruised ribs from skimfest but is still charging. Isaac's got some gnarly scrapes from the shells at Dumas. Emile, Logan, Blake, and Richard are all doing all right though!

Look out for some truly miraculous tricks in our upcoming (not yet titled movie). We've logged more film hours this summer than ever before, so it should be one heck of a flick!

In other news, about half the DB team just moved up to Bellingham WA to attend WWU and surrounding schools. If you are a B-ham local or live near there (whiterock, van) get in contact with one of them and go shred before summers over (i guess it is already technically, but it's going to be 85 degrees today!).

Next Vid in progress

The DB team has been hard at work filming for the next flick. Here's a few behind the scenes shots of the various reactions we all have after our minds get blown from the latest moves. At the bottom there is a shot of Blake getting down to business on a flat box in Yuba City and a screen shot of one of the many rail combos that have been pieced together in the past few weeks

Skim Fest Weekend Photo blow out.

We left Friday Morning for the 13th Annual Skimfest Competition in Sacramento. Packing the van with 6 guys, and with 3 more to meet us down there, we were rolling with a full crew. Here's some photo documention of the trip.

Day 1 included driving, stopping at the burnside skatepark to take in some skate park history and stretch the legs, lots more driving, other skate parks here and there, and ended with a sweet barbeque at Trevor's. Big thanks to Trevor, Dallas, and Trevor's family. Trevor Thompson and Dallas Kingsbury are regional Shreds on the team and were shredding the Sac region hard all weekend.
Day 2 included lots of chilling, sharpie mustaches, ollie shifty's, no comply shuvs on, shuv to front boards, big shuv combos on the dog house box, and much more. Trevor Thompson and Dallas Kingsbury

Emile 1st, $500 bones, trophy, and braging rights, Isaac 3rd Place, $100, and stoked for Emile


Day 3 the team met hit up Yuba City on the way out. Not wanting to leave, we ended up seshing about every combo of boxes out there and got some sweet footy. I didn't want to give anything away but Tony and Blake were killing it after a game of S-K-I-M that wouldn't end. About half way through the day the Sac crew showed up with some of the Tydle Mag guys and the skimming and fun times persisted before the 12 hour trek back home.

Spot Check "Dike Road"!!!




Here at DB we are always looking for new places to skim so when we noticed this gem off of I-5 at exit 36 in Washington we could not help ourselves. Here is the winner of Skimfest 2009 himself popping through to new unexplored territory.
