The Bridge Spot

There is a new skate hotspot in DC these days...100% homemade....5 years ago it would have been way too ghetto to skate there...Now with the new stadium its cleaned up alot...What you cant see here is that this quarterpipe is 3 ft pipe. Tyler with an Old man bs disaster

When Bobby skates everyone watches. FsFeeble
After the session we went to get some food. I had a chance to take a photo of one of my oldest friends. Paul Wilkins. I met him when i was 15 in front of a grocery store. He introduced me to the VA skate scene. Thanks Paul

In honor of Pat

Rory just got a Patrick Swayze portrait tatt....The photo was taken directly from the cover of Roadhouse....It sits nicely next to his Rambo tatt.

The Two Nine Blog_ Year 16

Once again July 29th turned out as amazing as ever. This is the 16th year in a row. Its come along way from Nick, Richard, Finn, Marty (whoever the hell that is),, and Art's Place (npi). Thanks to Tyler and Tony for making it happen once again.Two Nine this year freakin ruled. The skateboarding came back to life and the drinking took a back seat. Tyler was claiming fakie 5-0 the night before. Didnt seem like to much of a problem for this old bastard.

Ashley came down from Brooklynn.



Anna, Lena, and Erin have been to at least 10 two nines

The next generation of two niners is popping up everywhere. This photo is my favorite of the day. Beth's son Gabriel couldnt have a better name.During the game of skate Art's daughter Adeline needed a little love from her old as shit Dad.
Cupcakes are so "in" right now....DC's best Ping Ponger, Jimmy Peletier
Annabelle decided to conduct a water fight on herselfAngleo killed it in SKATE....switch heelflip
After the game of skate was over Art claimed the title. Its a big deal to win two nine game of skate considering 2 "official" pro skateboarders were in attendence and at least 3 others who could easily be pro at any moment. Arts damn old and totally deserved the win. The title remains in Virginia for another year.
Tony smashed him with a cupcake in celebration. Gluten free of course.
Next, the picnic table session got underway. Gnarly Neil..Bluntslide
Some 5-0s went downAnd Tyler ended the session with a BS Noseblunt.We thought the session was over, then the kids had their own session.
