Things are crazed over here at Adio. We’ve experienced a lot of new changes in the last few months… New riders, new shoes, new staff, new office, new kegerator. It’s been a God damned whirlwind to keep up with. In the midst of all this madness, we kind of overlooked an ad request from one of our international distributors. One of us took notice of it yesterday though, and pointed out that the deadline was March 10th (Tomorrow). Without any useable photos sitting on deck, we had to throw out the old Hail Mary.
Since Jordan is new around here, we figured we could throw the burden on his back and see what we’re working with. We hit him up and told him we needed a banger photo in the next three hours. Seeing as he had skated the Carlsbad Gap on Saturday, then the Kirchart Gap Sunday, I figured he might be a bit worn/bummed. He didn’t even flinch at the idea though.
Initially, we were going to hit up this gap to kink rail across the street from the office, but coincidentally, the owner of said building stormed into our office yesterday saying he heard about us, and that he wanted us to pay for the kink some skaters had cut off his rail. After thoroughly explaining to him all the ways in which he was trippin’, he still walked out with the idea that he would be billing us for skateboarding his handrail. We’ll just have to see how that all pans out…
Anyways, with the clock ticking, we decided to take Jordan to a sketchy wooden handrail in Oceanside that has a fat gash in it, along with a soft wooden run up and an extra gritty landing soaked in hobo piss. He was a damn good sport about it…
International advert… Accomplished. Hoff walked away with just a bloody set of talons and a little bit of urine on his shirt. Well played sir…
