O.D.G.

Note: Scanner took a dump so I couldn't get all the images I wanted on here. I'll be back with some more new/old stuff soon.. In no particular order...  1. Andrew Reynolds' frontside flip. Alright, let's get the obvious out of the way. Dude owns this trick and can do it down, up, over anything. Almost looks too easy for him. Close runner up would be Mike Carroll and of course Tom Penny, both legends who have shown total mastery of the trick for years with unique style and minimal effort. 2. Dylan Rieder's impossible. I couldn't think of a better description for Dylan's use of the trick than the name itself. Going over the barrier at Street League then that bench in NYC was already a mind-fuck. Than dude takes it over the chain link fence to massive drop with a tail grab to boot and it's a done deal. It would be a sin if I didn't mention Ed Templeton as well.  My historical facts are murky but he was clearly one of the pioneers of bringing...

I think this was when Jordan Richter was still on Blind but I'm not 100% on that.  Tony Hawk during his heyday..  Ray Underhill, R.I.P.  Jeremy Wray precursor to the water tower gap.  Ron Chatman has to be one of the most underrated street skaters of all time (in my not so humble opinion). I would kill to read his Transworld Interview from the 90's again where he had the 'fro and did a boardslide around a curved ledge..  Young Mike V.  They even had The Boss on the team at one point..       At a time when small wheels were popular and landing a trick was a Hail Mary at best, Kris Markovich went fast and big. Sturt photography has always been amazing.. Going to keep the rhetoric to a minimum this time.. a great company that went under for unknown reasons. Sorry about the funkiness of the scans with the two page ads..  ...

Not too much going on. Pre water-tower ollie by Jeremy Wray. Loved his top five ollies with Bones Wheels; and this interview is amazing; What I wouldn't give to see some current stuff from this guy...

Welcome to ODG. This will be a Blog about skateboarding mostly, with some art stuff or videos thrown in from time to time. I've been skating for over 20 years and just thought it would be cool to share some of my experiences. Here's one of my all time favorites, Jeremy Wray's Check Out, written by then team-mate Jason Dill.
