HABITAT, JOSE PARLA, & CUT&PASTE

1 DAY WITH HABITAT IN HONGMUTHAFUCKINKONG

So, Habitat just finished their trip to Shen Zhen and came back for a day to Hong Kong to shoot some more footage’s here.

After all, Hong Kong is most definitely 60 times better than Shen Zhen, sorry fellas.

The one thing that I missed on their trip was not beng able to see Danny Garcia doing a backside tailslide wearing a V-Neck tee shirt (FITTED, not slim) and a pair of straight fit pants.

I told him to do it but he was too tired and was planning on lurking around Mong Kok. All good. Next time, hopefully.

So, I took the rest of the homies to Chai Wan cause there’s this wall thats designed specially for Silas, it’s exclusive.

Daryl Angel, Brennan Conroy, John Bradford (photographer), Silas and Marius Syvanen came with me.

First, we cruised around the chillin Chai Wan skate park, dayeem, Silas and Marius are super fuckin amazing on the miniramp, are you kidding me??? Killing it.

Daryl hurt his ankle doing something big earlier that day, so he was just chilling. Brennan was pivot fakieing all day everyday, he makes Drehobl proud, for sure.

But yo, Brennan stresses on his skateboard ala Getz style, it’s even crazier! It’s so damn funny though.

Come to HK again brothers. Hong Kong got mad love for Habitat and Habitat got mad love for Hong Kong, that’s for sure.

8FIVE2 baby.

ONE,

JBS

Due to a sprained ankle, he took a little nap. He showed up to support his team mates.

Brennan took Daryl’s thunder. He also sprained his ankle.

For the whole trip, Brennan couldn’t stop saying Precious Blood.

Bradford representing Precious Blood. Snoop where you at?

Marius Syvanen doing one of Enjoi ad.

Silas is definitely a hardcore skateboarder.

Marius and Silas, double up. Dayeem, these cats went mad fast.

Silas, ollie off the wall to another. Dayeem sun.

Daryl showed support by showing his teeth! Definitely one of the most beautiful teeth in the industry.

Annie’s special note: “If any casting directors are looking for cast for the next “Newsies” film, you got to hire this guy!!!”

Back to Causeway Bay fresh and clean. Marius, Silas, Daryl, WZA (hkskateboarding.com),

Annie (Know1edge / mata hari) and Brennan (anger management/namastay)

Tsing Tao all day everyday. The future and the present.

I got mad love for Joe Castrucci and Aaron Hoover. Wait and see.

Maybe they can break the curse

of skateboard companies doing skateboard shoes.

At the Jose Parla show with Jose. He’s definitely one of the best. SICK SHIT sun.

When there’s champagne, there’s Annie.

Silas, Brennan, Annie and Daryl.

JOSE PARLA IN HONG KONG: READING THROUGH SEEING

Jose Parla came out to exhibit his works for the second time in HK but. this was his first solo exhibition in Hong Kong.

Definitely one of the best artists out there and one of my personal favorites for his style and for being such a humble down to earth guy.

Congratulations on your show Jose! We still have his work on our 8FIVE2SHOP wall!

A special dedication to the people of Hong Kong!

Young Kim aka SUITMAN was there spinning. Annie is posing behind her Korean brother.

Jason Lam AKA GRINCH at the back with his Visvim messenger bag

(there were 8 people using the same Visvim messenger bag that night so we have to assume Visvim messenger bags are the new black!).

Jason is one of the funniest cats in HK, for sure.

ANGELS & DEMONS PREMIER: The prequel to “Da Vinci Code”

If you haven’t seen the “Da Vinci Code” you’re probably in luck because “Angels & Demons” will be a little less predictable and lets face it, the first one was a bit of a napper.

Science vs Religion at 100 notches more thrilling than “Da Vinci Code” and no, I didn’t read the book so I can’t tell you which was better but, usually, the book always is.

AliveNotDead.com’s Raffi AKA Bullock’s brother from another mother, MC Jin, Brian W, and some random angel holding a beer & demon to create “atmosphere”

CUT & PASTE 2009:

We went to check out the Digital Design Tournament at Cut&Paste.

It was a huge turn out compared to last year.

Everyone was designing their own design renditions for the 55DSL wall while we were doing something a little less creative & having fun on the Polaroid wall.
