Mini Video 70 - HK VACA 2010 from Josh Ellis on Vimeo.

Over ten days this summer Tim Olson, Eric Risser, Max Murphy and I took a roadtrip to Austin, Texas. We camped along the way. It was so hot that we couldn't skate a lot of the time. So we just swam. And complained. Swimming and complaining, now that's a vacation. The skateboarding we did manage to accomplish is contained in this video.

Thanks a million to everyone who helped out and/or put us in their backyards and/or showed us around: Fletcher, Perry, Simon, No Comply Skateshop, Michael Sieben, Paul Zitzer, Mike Ballard, and Cole Wilson.

Tim, Max, Eric, and I recently just took a trip to Texas, camping along the way. Lots of memorable things happened, like seeing a Juggalo cry, Eric losing his contact in a urinal, and then his glasses in a river, etc, etc. You know how it goes. Here's roughly the first half of the pictures I took with my Holga.

I've always really liked Gabe's videos. He's finally joined web2.0 and made a vimeo account, so now the love can be spread. Behold: SPACE.

Mini Video 69 - Shake - Wiskate.com from Josh Ellis on Vimeo.

Skating in Milwaukee, summer 2010. Starring some dudes on skateboards including Eric Risser, Matt Nordness, Max Murphy, Tim Olson, Gabe Chan, Scott Gall, John Rockafellow, and Chase Hopper. Filmed on a Canon 7d, edited while going 70mph on the freeway in a car that smelled like farts.

I'm just gonna use vimeo for the HD clips from now on since I think we'd have a meltdown if I tried to host them on the wiskate.com mainframe. I'm still hosting smaller versions for the ever exciting archives.

Matt and Max Outro Video plus Gorf Life + Friends from Roger Skateboards on Vimeo.

We worked on this one all summer. Matt and Max's Outro video for Roger Skateboard's Roger of the Month help a buddy program. Filmed in HD, for your pleasure.

There's quite a few fellas in this skateboarding adventure: Eric Risser, Pat Forster, Gabe Chan, Tj Bohach, Scott Gall, Chase Hopper, Tim Olson, John Rockafellow, Danny Stemper, Mike Roebke, Nick Mistele, Bill Kaschner, Drew Rickaby, Mikey Al-Wathiqui, and of course, Max Murphy and Matt Nordness.

If you don't like HD for some reason, or like fluorescent pink triangles a lot, I uploaded a smaller flash version here too.

Thanks again to Roger, dudes are the best.
