Yesterday was a really good day of riding. Miguel, Jacob, and myself went over the the Royal HC headquarters to meet up, and we went over to Cerritos skatepark. We bullshitted, shot some flicks, filmed some lines, and just had a really fun time. Here’s a photo of Miguel throwing pulling a T-Bog. Check out the full write-up with more pictures here!

Johnathan Ball | Messing Around
Just a couple clips outside The Workshop on Jacob’s Concept Assassin that I was having some fun on.
sMc YOUNG GUNS | Skatepark Quickie
Yesterday the sMc crew took a trip to MLK skatepark in Long Beach for a little sesh and to hype up the Young Guns video we’ve been filming for for the past year. All these riders except myself will have a part in the team video along with four others. The end is near. April.

Bombtrack Divide | Current Setup
Just a shot with my cell phone riding in the CSULB parking lot a few days ago. Really feeling my Bombtrack Divide build right now. Paired with the Altar Burial Handlebars, the combo is perfect. Royal HC straps keeping my feet tied down and all coming together thanks to The Workshop bike shop in Long Beach.
ALTAR | NEW T-SHIRTS
Shop Visit | The Workshop in Long Beach
As I’ve started attending Cal State Long Beach this school year, trips to my favorite shop, The Workshop, have been more frequent. The shop is situated in the tight knit community of Bixby Knolls, one of the nicer areas of Long Beach.
ALTAR TRIBE | BURIAL BAR SALE
Altar is offering free shipping on the Burial Bars along with free Coffin Tees for the first 5 people until February 18th. Get on it here!
Bombtrack | Johnathan Ball
My rider page on the Bombtrack website is now officially out. Check it out, welcome edit coming late spring. Very stoked to be on board!
Half Assed | Vol. 7
The Half-Assed Series is back, in HD, and with the Altar boys! Which also happens to include two sMc members, Robert Rice and myself. Phil did a real good job at cutting this one together, and for being half-assed, the clips are way killer. But with a lineup like this, it’s hard not to make a sick video. It’s been a while since footage of Gus has surfaced, but he’s still at it and killing it harder than ever. Don’t forget to swoop some Burial Bars!
Johnathan Ball | Wallride Barspin
Phil came down to my area and wanted to shoot some photos. So I took him my go-to spot, the Santa Ana Riverbed. A five minute ride from my house and perfect banks make it an ideal spot to practice tricks. After brushing glass out of the way and hauling Phil’s camera equipment down the steep banks, Phil got this sick shot. But when aren’t his shots sick?
