Here are two teasers for you all. First being Travis Card's new flick, Good Things Come To Those Who Skate. Cali to VT, these guys are killin it as always. It stars Marshall Heath, Dave Abair, Sean Stem, Sean Meeker, Kyle Burroughs, Cody Hale, Chris Colbourn, Ryan Edwards & Collin Hale. There is a premiere at Talent Skatepark on June 21st.. be there! The second teaser is Iheartsnow Pro (Ian Post)'s 2010 film, The Peace Process. These guys have put in the hours this winter, and I can assure you that this film will be insane! The rider list is too long to post, but two parts I am specifically excited for are Luke Haddock and Yale Cousino's. The video will be droppin' over the summer, but check out Iheartsnow Pro in the meantime for some pics/edits!

Gray: Talent Skatepark Renovations

I feel pretty safe to say if you ask a young skateboarder in Vermont where he bought his deck, 1 out of 2 will say Talent Skatepark. This park is great for a ton of reasons but il get to the meat of it. It starts with the owners. Hannah and Dave Wood own the skatepark and shop, and sure know how to run both! They have created an environment where soccer moms can drop their kids off for 3 hours with peace of mind, and still get the 16-21 year old crowd there throwin down. So props to both of them for being positive people, and being successful in what they do! The skatepark has been around since 2002, and has changed a bit but nothing too drastic. Recently, they raised the roof, so bigger ramps could be made. Last week they tore down all the ramps and have been reusing the wood to make new ramps and a new layout for the park. Although the park is closed for the renovations now, it will be reopening May 27th. Check out the new layout of the shop in the meantime, and show your love for your local skatepark! With park hours, directions, etc. check out their website HERE.

Here's one more pic of the renovations and a throwback video filmed by myself called, Terror at Talent:
