South Bend Park Edit By Christian Macon

So Christian just threw this up on the messageboard and has promised another edit soon featuring a profile on himself and Garret. Let's make sure he keeps his word.

This week's Indianapolis Monday Night Skate at Major Taylor's 5PM (11/9)

Sorry for the late notice everybody...let's get as many people out today as possible. There is a high of 70 in November so appreciate this good weather and be there. Yep.

This Week's Indianapolis Monday Night Skate at the new Lawrence Skate Park 5PM (11/2)

Eric just threw these pics up on the messageboard of the new park in Lawrence. Check out the post for directions and other pics. It's getting dark at around 6 now so Monday Night Skates will be more street oriented starting next week until it gets too cold. Until then blade or die.

Monday Night Skate Update!!! (10/26)

So apparently 465 has been opened up once again so instead of heading out there around 6 after the carmel park sesh we'll be going to the perfect spot downtown. Make sure to get to Carmel on time or call somebody if you don't know where the perfect spot is.

This weeks Indianapolis Monday Night Skate at the Carmel Monon Center Skatepark 5PM (10/26)

So it's been a while since we went to Carmel and Eric had a crazy idea to go try and skate 465 while it's shut down. For anybody interested we'll probably leave the park shortly after 6PM so get there early if you want to skate the park. See you there!

The 2009 Major Taylor's Blade Jam Edit Up Now!!!

Yeah so I finally got around to finishing it. Josh and I spent countless hours just trying to get the clips from his and Brandi's cameras onto my computer. Eventually we figured it out but most of the clips had been reconverted multiple times so enjoy the synthetic analog experience.

This weeks Indianapolis Monday Night Skate at Major Taylor's 5PM (10/19)

We'll be leaving the park probably around 6-6:30 so if you want to skate the park make sure to get there at 5. We've only got a handful of Monday Night Skate's left in the season so let's get everybody out and shred. The Blade Jam edit is 90% complete so keep checking back!

The 2009 Blade B-Q Photos are Up!

Click the photo above to check out the pics Vince snapped. Overall I would say the Blade B-Q was a great success...we definately could have had more people there to enjoy the action but it definately wasn't needed. Once again a BIG thanks to Owen Novins for hosting, thanks to everyone who brought food and drink, and thanks again to everybody for coming out. Next year we'll do it when it's warm out. Jake Wilkes won four wheels for the best trick contest with a solid true fish down the box on the steps. We recorded the 3 hour box session too so get ready for the edit that Owen and Alex are about to make. Believe it or not the blade jam edit is almost finished so keep looking out for it. That is all.

The 2009 Monday Night Blade B-Q 6PM (10/12)

So it's official...the 2009 Blade B-Q will be happening this coming Monday at Owen Nevin's house at 103 Timberlake Ct. Fishers, IN 46038.. The Indiana Inline slider box will be there and Owen has a grill so we're all good. The things we do need help with are drinks, ice, chips, and anything else food related is welcome. I'm going to buy a bunch of hamburgers and hotdogs and owen has plates and cups so other than that we should be good. Please shoot me a text or an email if you can bring something. See you there dudes!

This weeks Indianapolis Monday Night Skate at Pan Am Plaza Downtown 6PM(10/5)

Check out the pictures from our Saturday skate trip to Columbus, IN. We got quite a bit of footage too but you're going to have to wait to see some of that. This weeks monday night skate will be a downtown street only session. There's not much more filming time in the year so let's get everybody out and get some last minute skating in. Next week's MNS will more than likely be the Blade B-Q but we're still working out the final details. Stay posted for more info very soon.

So Owen and Alex threw this up on the messageboard today from this week's Monday Night Skate...this is probably a more accurate (and funnier) way that things usually go.

West Lafayette Wednesday Night Skate at the Faith Baptist Park at 7:00 pm (9/22)

We're moving the skate night to Wednesday to accommodate to The Office and people's drinking and homework schedules. The session this week will be at the Faith Baptist park like always. Bring a helmet and make sure not to say anything rude in front of Joe.
