Zak Hale going for a quick stall on the Burton Dream Feature.

Transworld Snowboarding's Adam Hawes came out for the Think Thank premiere and hung out for a few days. This guy is best kind for sure. While he was here, Tommy J decided to build a fort in the living room. Good thing Tommy's good at writing and skating, because he's no architect.


When the fort wouldn't stay up, Tommy J decided to go camping, but he's afraid of bats, so he set up inside.

Trevor Jacob got a new haircut.

Little Robby is at camp almost the whole summer. Once a session, he breaks out his penguin costume and skates around. Seeing that penguins can't fly, it's nice that they're found another way to get around.

We went to Portland for Rick Rodriguez's birthday in a giant party bus (read: the camp Nike bus). Later that night, Connor found this sign. Not sure what's he's doing, I think it might be a reference to "Saved by the Bell" heartthrob, AC Slater?

Malinski locked his keys out of the car and called some friends to help him break in. Slow day in Portland for the firemen.

Lolo Pass in Welches is right down the road from where I live, but I hadn't been down there until recently. The camping spot there is one of the best places I've been in the area. Totally gorgeous. The kitchen crew from camp threw a giant pig roast there. Here's the sign telling you where to go.

Tommy J with a trick that I didn't time right for the photo. Still pretty awesome.

Brandon Cocard fastplant with the volcano in the background.

Hironaka = one of the best guys at camp. Here he is, doing something on a jersey barrier. It was probably pretty sweet judging by how many people are watching.

Cocard has good style and is a good guy. Cheers.

Tommy J celebrating landing a trick.

Burton came to camp and played "Win a Date with Zak Hale". We drew out a "Singled Out"-type board and female campers had to answer dating game questions that Zak asked, with answers that he liked advancing toward him.

The game was hilarious, but the answers made me nervous for the supposed innocence of America's youth. Zak felt the opposite.

We went to this awesome swimming hole one day. Here's the walk in with Danny Toumarkine and Paul Gemignani. It's kind of a secret spot, so this is all you get.

Paul looking toward the swimming spot, excited to jump off some cliffs into water.

Dinner at El Burro Loco in Welches with Christi Nasser and Moss Halladay. The amount of water consumed at this dinner was out of hand.

Vermont's Jesse Curran is the lone wolf of the kitchen.

Burton's Danny Toumarkine had to pick up supplies for Burton's "Brown-nose Night". Supplies included: chocolate pudding, chocolate syrup, chocolate frosting, corn, mens briefs and body wash. He looked like a creep in the grocery store, but mostly because of the body wash, which was a personal purchase.

Zak Hale gets the kids excited for Burton night.

This is what fake poo looks like for a Burton sponsor night at camp. Upsettingly realistic.

Here, the campers tried to finish the chocolate and corn mixture from the whitey-tighties without using their hands. It was one of the most foul things I have ever seen.

Zak and a brown-nosed camper.

See the smudges on the windshield? That's gross stuff from Zak's socks that were hanging out the door to dry off, slapping against the window.

Jonah Owen has strong teeth. Check the beer can.

After Jonah introduced everyone to the better way to drink out of a beer can, everybody attempted to bit the top off. Sollors got it easily.

Zak didn't have as much luck.

Beer drinking adjustment.

Airheads were ten for a dollar at the grocery store.

Sage Kotsenburg likes candy the most out of anyone, ever.

End.
