My new Bustin Strike from New York based Bustinboards is pretty sick! I’m riding it with Bear Grizzly 184mm trucks and Orangatang Stimulus 70mm 83a’s. It goes fast, feels steady, carves like crazy and gives you controlled slides. My calves hurt!

My homie Benten got talent.. wow!

Tieme Rietveld featured my apartment on his weblog today. Love it. Keep an eye on him.

Yesterdag I visited the lovely exposition Amsterdam 1845-1875, The First Photographs in the Amsterdam City Archives. Amsterdam doesn’t look quite the same anymore. The highlight of the visit wasn’t a photo that was displayed on the expo, but one that I bumped into in another part of the City Archive. It’s a picture taken by Nico van der Stam of the (unremarkable) Paternostersteeg (alley) in the old centre of Amsterdam.
