So we decided to head out on a little road trip as the team itself has been pretty slack in 2009 focusing on their own projects. First was the calls, then the drop outs... The final roaster included Big Poppa Young, Damian Todd, JK, Ginge, Mat Lloyd and the discipline sponsored drinker Paul Haysman. We where all left shaking our heads at Mark Sinfield (who along with Damian has been the most requested skater who people want to see footage of), as he was unable to get the time off. Below are the awards that were gained whilst away:
SKATER LEAST FUN TO BE ON A ROAD TRIP WITH - DAMIAN
SKATER MOST LIKELY TO GET PUNCHED IN THE FACE BY MAT - DAMIAN
Damian is a mummies boy, no two ways about it. Yes he is a sick skater, and i mean really sick skater, but most mummies boys spend there life whinging if something isn't right and whinge he did! Yep we'd decided to road trip to the isle of Wight, we had no idea what the skating would be like, the parks were pretty shit to say the least, but whilst everyone else got on with it....Damian whinged!
SKATER MOST PISSED OFF BY WHINGING - MAT LLOYD
Mat had a specific goal for the trip, FOOTAGE. He had a bag full of cameras and tapes but in essence was defeated by shit spots, bad weather and Damian's constant whinging! Mat is normally hyper about skating with friends and we are all friends but even he said "shit if he doesn't stop whinging I think we should bury him on this fucking island"! Mat on Sunday got slowly more pissed off with Damian meaning his skating suffered and it was just one huge viscious circle! Just grit your teeth and keep smiling....
SKATER MOST LIKELY TO HOOK UP WITH A FAT CHICK - GINGE
Ginge is a legend, not only did he fall asleep outside of our tents one night then wake up to find its been pissing down for hours and he's fucking soaked, but he loves the fat chicks!!! He'll try and tell you otherwise but when drung in a nightclub, his chubb radars in full effect.
SKATER MOST HANDY WITH THE TOOLS - BIG POPPA
After Haysman managed to brake the tour wagons back window, Big Dads managed to fix it! It took him about 40 minutes and he warned everyone not to touch the window. Later that evening who hits the button to open the window? Thats right...Big dads...
SKATER MOST LIKELY TO GET PUNCHED BY A RANDOM - HAYSMAN
We can't tell you much about the incident except, he was drunk, had already been thrown out three times and then got punched.... twat!
SKATER MOST UP FOR IT - JK
SKATER MOST PRONE TO NUDITY - JK
Two days before the trip I receive a text message from this guy claiming he's fractured his wrist! I couldn't believe his luck, shit, was he still going to come? He came, wrist in a brace, he came. This award goes to JK because from the moment we landed on the island he went for it, he skated well above his ability and we were fully stoked watching him. JK we salute you! As for the naked award, watch the video!
