The Wanderings of Jake Price
by lgallagher on May.27, 2009, under Uncategorized
So….dude getting eye eaten by girl is Jake Price. That’s his girlfriend getting savage on his face in Vegas. Jake’s okay though, don’t worry, it’s just a playful photo. She’s really just a harmless swimsuit model. Yep. You’d probably let her do this too.
Anyway…Jake Price films, edit, etc…And he’s really good at what he does…I’ve hyped him up on here before…CLICK IT….but today’s order of bizniz has to do with Volcom’s Wandering Winterland. Jake made it and it’s on ITunes. You can buy the 22-minute shred movie for just $1.99.
I did, and so should you. Some serious shredding from the likes of…Zac Marben, Curtis Ciszek, Kevin Pearce, Blair Habenicht, Pat Moore, Dan Brisse, Scott Stevens, Cheryl Maas, Bjorn, The Guch…the list goes on.

Shred Saudi Arabia

Found this while looking for who-know what on the Web…Next new spot?
“According to a story in the Saudi Gazette and sourced to the American News Agency, the Associated Press, snow fell in Al-Baha city, to the south-west of Riyadh, on Tuesday.
Torrential rain poured down on Al-Baha accompanied by gusty winds.
The nearby mountains received some snow too.
It covered the valley areas and the forests of Al-Zaraeb and Khayrah, according to the report.
It doesn’t look like they were prepared for the white stuff and on closer examination it could even be hailstones, but it’s certainly an interesting picture and they look like they are enjoying themselves anyway.
It does though snow in Saudi Arabia - just not always at this time of year.”
Here’s a link to the site www.planetski.eu/news/400
And YouTube proof that there’s shreddable snowfall in Saudi Arabia.
Down the Rabbit Hole…

You’re probably doing what I’m doing. Trying to work off that after-lunch lull, find inspiration, ideas, entertainment anything, right…here’s what I found today…
It started at Boardistan.com, a ‘boarder news site run by a former TransWorlder. Good, quick, news nuggets. Check it..
From there I found We Love You So, a blog that was started by the people behind the new movie Where The Wild Things Are, looks like it’ll be a new-found favorite.
Once there I found this MP3-and-image-a-day site, called Nevver, so then I had something to listen to. Always nice. So is this photo, huh?
That’s it. Found what I was looking for, off to write about my trip to Lebanon last winter…yep, that’s the Middle East, and yep, we went snowboarding there…it was something else, you’ll never believe what happend!

A good dude went down at Mammoth last week. Cody Rosenthal missed the landing at a jump at Superpark and broke a vertebrae. Some of his friends have already created a Facebook page to get raise money for his recovery. Here’s the link...http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=106109520029&ref=mf
Thought I’d share this ittle edit Cody made at the Mammoth skate park….
Our thoughts are with you homie. Get well soon.
Due to the economy

One rad thing about the real estate market crash down here in Cali: Foreclosed homes have to drain their pools. Already found one. On the look out all summer. Holler if you hear of any.
Here’s a LINK to a TW Skate story on pools…
