The view from the first ever skateboard-only program at an independent boarding school.
Skate Team, Progress is a Fleeting Thing
P.J.Steber is out for a week, but before he was side-lined, he started killing it frontside. He was doing frontside 5-0′s and slashers on the quarter-pipe, the half-bowl, and most notably on the Jersey barrier. When you skate you know that sometimes you…More »
Carrabassett Valley Academy Skate Jam
Mike Mallon generously hosted the second comp of the Maine SK8 Series at CVA’s Anti-Gravity Center. The riders spread out for a one hour all-park jam. The energy was great. We only wish that George had made his blunt to finger flip. People…More »
Women Ride the Pool
Lizzie Armanto and Amelia Brodka just did a shoot for Thrasher Magazine. I wish I had all the pictures, but I have just one. Both Lizzie and Amelia are two of my favorite skaters. Lizzie is spontaneous and oh, so stylish. Amelia is…More »

Finding Ah
In this picture Rene Mesones is just chilling. He’s happy. You usually don’t see him off his skateboard. He’ll play a game of flat ground skate or ride the C-Ledge. He’ll ride just about anywhere. And there are other skaters on the…More »
Skate Team Riders
This past week winter returned and we skated inside. Even with it cold outside, the skating heated up each day. Lexi is airing out of the quarter-pipe with a 180 landing it from the coping. Everyone who can is tearing up the…More »
Vermont Skateboards
Vermont Skateboards is Dave Mull, Steve Mull, Connor Ose, and Zed Mack. I’ve known the Mull brothers for years. They’re great skaters and excellent guys. I’m pretty excited that they’ll be riding with us May 2nd at the Oxford Hills competition and…More »
Plan B The Berrics United Nations
What can I say. The Berric is the place. There’s nothing like the skaters on Plan B. Watch it and be amazed. Watch more, get more amazed. Watch more and see stuff, stuff you’re not even sure about. Plan B at the Berrics….More »
