Finally Home - Dream Driveway Session

Published 9/20/2013 by Ryan Clements

I feel like a broken record talking about how much I’ve traveled this summer, but damn it’s nice to be home for a bit. There were a few times this year that the coping on the Dream Driveway got a little rusty. So no better way to grind that surface rust right off than to have a few friends over. One of my childhood buddies, James Luedde, is a photographer, and kept asking to shoot some pics, so we hooked it up. Keep in mind that this is his first time ever shooting skating. Not bad.

Baby Sloane and Ryan Clements

I took a warm-up run with Baby Sloane. I’m sure she’ll grow up and hate skateboarding, but for now I can make her thinks it’s cool.

Joe Pelham in the Dream Driveway

I'm pretty sure that Joe Pelham made a conscious effort to get better on tranny recently, as shown with this fs lipslide.

Ryan Clements always goes all out on his Halloween costumes. This year, he gets the Oscar for acting like a crazy Ybor City preacher. Some people get right away that it's a joke and others just can't seem to get past their anger. His Rebel flag belt buckle isn't helping matters. Check out a small sample of the amazing characters we encounter on 7th Avenue during Guavaween, including a near fight with a roofer kid bragging about his GPA.

Today a box of IVI shades arrived at The Boardr offices. An old friend of ours that we've worked with in the past through DC's King of series, Brian Garafalow, is now in marketing at Rob Dyrdek's top quality eyewear company.Brian hooked it up with a few different styles. Top quality is definitely the first thing you think when you open a box of IVI's. Check them out below. We're also giving away a pair on The Boardr Instagram account. I'm feeling those Sepulveda's.
