Biggin Aggin

Some video footage of Sunday with Me, Trev and Dan at Biggin Hill. Not that exciting but we'd only just got there and were warming up (missed all the massive airs etc.)

Taken on my Flip Mino HD with an add on magnetic Fisheye adaptor mounted on a Gorillapod copy type tripod wrapped around the fence.






(hmmm , looks like Photobucket has trimmed a couple of minutes off of the end probably due to file size) The Flip software that comes with the camera does this 'Magic Movie' edit thing. Basically you tell it which video to do and it edits it down, as the camera was in the one location it came up with this (imho) rad little video where people fade in and out of view almost like a time-lapse/dreamlike scene. 





Music is by Vibrasonic incase anyone was wondering. 

Biggin It Up

Got a text from Trev on Saturday about going to Biggin Hill on Sunday morning, decided I needed a skate as I hadn't got on my board since Cookies 50th bash at MSN.

So I dusted off the Pacer Hogs

Rain last night and a bit of dampness on the way there had me a bit worried but we arrived just after 9:00 to a dry and deserted skatepark.
It wasn't long before the skootards arrived though, always amazes me how blinkered they are and have no idea what lines skaters are going to take.

A good skate, here's some pics including a couple of me by Trev that I snaffled from his Photobucket account...


Dan did some nice boned airs to fakie and some backside airs...

Trev pulled some inverts in the shallow and some nice frontside grinds

I did my usual...

Discovered I had a "burst" mode on my camera the other day, played around with it and some gifs...

Unlucky Clover

Got up early and drove round the rainy M25 to Biggin Hill to meet up with Jellyhead, 70's Steve and Sk8Goa Nick.

Took some phonecam shots of the graffiti that's appeared...









Once the rain stopped it dried out very quickly.

Then I made the mistake of getting my camera out and it started raining again, I hadn't even dialled in the settings, ISO and WB way out from taking pictures of cameras indoors the other day. Only took one photo before having to pack everything away.

My Name's Up In Lights

Well, not really lights but you know what I mean.

Wheelscape have kindly put 5 of my photos up on their website.

Des, Dr Bill, Jellyhead, Ricardo and that bloke whose name I can't remember.

Jelly Close Up

Pity I muffed this one up.
It would have been a good shot if the focus was sharper and I'd have got the front of the board in.
Oh well, another day maybe.
