Manual the tour..not the nollie flip out manual.


(here's a post from Jer Ricketts of Manual Skateboards.....the tofino trip ruled..I'll post more pics soon!!!! For now heres Soros doing a nollie backside heelflip to wall ride....he only did about five of them for the cameras...poser.)
"The trip ruled, Stash ruled every spot,park,town that we went through, chalmers stomped on Vic West, then killed a toilet in Port.Trevor killed the party when he got in the car after the Rod and Gun, the local qualicum pub, he was so excited about a party we were supposed to go to, only he passed out as he started to give me directions (so did everyone in the car)and i ended up in the middle of the woods at a dead end.
the next day we had a huge skate session it was joined by Adam Ruddel and Mike Christie along with Tyler Mackenzie..only we spent the better part of the day waiting for rain to stop, we all seshed the qualicum high school under cover. there were carpet slides, shuvs, shuv-combo's,preasure flips, all the greats! we finally decided to call it quits, and head to Port Alberni to meet up with Jamie Collins. Jamie rules, took us to a bro's house for a party & hooked up a place to stay.After a night of gut busting laughs thanks to Phil Stinner, we were up and on our way to tofino Demo...chalmers was spotted eating chicken sandwiches,and signing autographs..untill DNA team showed up. They were ripping the park so hard, it was awesome to skate with them, Brandon soros ,Matt, jordan,john,Jay,thanks for comming along..i'm looking forward to the next time. TOUR PROMO VID SOON!"

I think it would be worse if it was made out of blue cheese, Could you imagine, on a hot day there would be people up there chipping away at it trying to use the extracts for their sandwhiches, and man by noon it could melt and your feet would sink into it. It would be like the scene form Nightmare on elm st when the dude is running up the strairs getting all stuck. Wow I'm glad that did'nt happen.
