Brad Domke in one of his last heats before losing his chance to winning the UST Champion title.
Notice the ability to wrap on a wave with barely any shape!

After Brad Domkes loss in his heat, taking him away from the title shot he had. he still appeared for day 2 of Oktoberfest.
In between amateur heats, I was lucky enough to get some nice shots of Domke, Brandon Sears and Brandon Rothe.
It’s very impressive how easy skateboarding comes to them, then again, maybe not. I mean, they try the same stuff on boards with 3 times as much surface area and on ever changing water conditions.
Here’s a Sequence of Domke:

Bearded, considered one of the best skimboard movies ever, if not the best; has its little brother finally coming.
3 years of waiting made a lot of people very cranky, but Exile Skimboards is now going to fulfill their call: Stimulus.
The other day, SkimBrasil went undercover to get crucial information about it and this is what we got.
By the Way: The DVD isn't officially out yet. THE SCREENING IS TODAY! Lido theater in newport, click here for more information.
Exiles vicious Gate Keeper almost wouldn't let me get away with the pics.
what does Hank have there?
oh, now thats better:
p.s.: if you haven't seen the trailer, at least, remember to breathe when watching!

Green Eggs and Am
30/Mar/09 17:25
Saturday, the 21st of March; Paulo Prietto and Steve Taylor hosted the Green Eggs and Am competition again.
(more information under http://greeneggsandam.com/ )
The competition was held at West St. Even though it was scheduled early and the tide wasn’t collaborating, skimmers of various ages started arriving and crossing their fingers for some good waves later on. About 30 skimmers were there, signing in, getting their hat and warming up while West was doing its share:
Many of the earlier heats depended on your pretty basic front-on wave, reinforced by pressure coming from the waves hitting of the rocks, but you couldn’t call those siders. You saw a variety of tricks being pulled of; from aerials to 180° airdrops, from shove-its to switch in the barrel.
Before the pics, please remember, I am new in town, I don’t know everyones name and might be wrong on one or two of them! I am sorry for the confusion.
Teddy Parker showing that small is still fun!
Blair trying to find that barrel (above and below)
Wrapping with style
But as the minutes passed and heats were turning into semi-finals, West St showed potential!
Blair was one of the first riders to really be taking advantage of the siders, but as the tide got better, the waves came in offering stronger siders.

Above: Paddy showing off his sider cubacks. Below: completing a roundhouse cutback.
Matt Obrien enjoying the sider warming up!
Among some of the known names, you had Sam Stinnet, Paulo P., Brandon Sears, Steve Taylor, Derek, Tommy D., Woody Harris, and a few others:
And what would this post be worth if there were no local girls!
Then, West St really raised the heat and gave us sweat waves!
Matt going for it!
Below, Blair sitting switch for a long ride.
