the empty hand of innocence transfusing street of the sorrows and children of the wood hounded shredding all veils unwinding all sheets of the dead world droning overturning tables laden with silver sacrificial birds beating goatskin drums advancing with hands outstretched and we keep filling them with mercury nitrate asbestos baby bombs blasting blue scavengers picking through the ashes children of the mills children of the junkyards sleepy illiterate fuzzy little rats haunted paint sniffing stoned out of their shaved heads forgotten foraging mystical children foul-mouth glassy-eyed hallucinating...

I'm making an article about this cause the fun and the sensation of searching for spots on sunday afternoons is just amazing. Even at locations like these you can find them, but that's not the the point on these sites, it's the feeling you get. It's like you travel back into time! This old industrial site used to be a very large steel industry in Belgium and used to be a state of the art modern construction. Fascinating if you're in the same business, even normal people who don't even realise what this is are amazed by the size of it !

My friend had a doctor's appointment two and a half hours away in Raleigh, so a few of us went with him to skate. We ended up just messing around at an indoor park for a while, then upon not being able to decide on a street spot to skate, went to an under-construction concrete park. Nothing productive, but it was a fun trip.

Well, my video's finally finished. Well, almost. I just have to film one more person's intro for their part, make the image for the DVD disc, and do a Scene Selection menu.
So, barring any unforeseen technical difficulties, it'll be complete within a week. I can't wait to put this thing behind me. I suppose making some money would be also be a plus...

I'm back home for the week, so I've got the internet... This is a project I did for school. It turned out better than I had imagined it would, my expectations obviously not being very high. But, I had never really done anything like that before. I'm kicking myself in the face for not burning a skateboarding montage I made to a disc and bringing it with me, but I should have the internet at my apartment in about a week anyway, if the cable guy would be kind enough to actually show up...

On vient de rentrer d'une semaine ?† Londres, une semaine qui f?ªt malheureusement assez pluvieuse ...
Les tricks que j'en ram?®ne peuvent se compter seulement sur deux mains et mes poches sont presque vides.

the transition, the soft wood, the wide cooping, the backyard dream for everyone of us.
i visited some of these last winter for a small article in freeze mag. you can still search for it, it's a free mag you'll find in every shop in belgium. If you are the owner of a piece of art like this, please don't hesitate to contact us. Maybe we'll drop by to make some soupe !

First is my friend Scott's Part, which hardly reflects how good he is. His filming was cut short due to his moving away and joining the army, for reasons I don't quite understand. So I went ahead and edited his part since there's not the possibility of getting any more footage. Some of the tricks are a lot harder than they seem for how sketchy the spots are. After that is an introduction to what will someday be a montage. Meanwhile, this town is killing me. The 'skate scene' sucks. Nobody who's supposed to be in my video gets along with one another, some are too busy feeding their drug habits to ever skate, etc. Producing a decent skateboarding video 'round these parts is not an easy task.
I'm having trouble uploading photos. So instead of something from the video, here's a picture of a cigarette:
(Click for the video, It's a bit of a long load.)

search and explore the area !
looking for spots is the best part, you're really motivated while driving around industrial area's with your eyes wide open.
every stair, rail, sidewalk, bump, waved concrete or anything else matters. Driving back home from work or school taking a different route and hope you're gonna find something.
it's one of the greatest things about skateboarding, looking for the unknown. We, skaters, have a different kind of view. an important and artistic one.
from a 100m down low it looked like a huge ditch but when we got up there it was all filled up and became a giant nature box.
it looks like copper thiefs also visited this site. and apparently it's been there for already 4 years during to google earth's photos.
don't steal or break shit, cause skaters who do, are fucking up the sport i love ! respect the spot and it will respect you.
and keep in mind there's always a chance you're not alone... at least we weren't !

I just got out of the mental hospital yesterday.
It was fun at first, but the 22 days I was in there was a bit torturous. I didn't do anything to get put in there. I was wrongfully arrested. But apparently, I'm bipolar. I'm much too tired to write about the experience right now, as it's been a long day, but am certainly going to in the near future.
I made this motion graphic today, and digitized the eyeball animation (which I made sitting there bored out of my mind in the 'nuthouse')... The footage is from long ago. 'Came up with the name Glitter Films a while back for my nonexistent production company. I never planned on keeping the title "SDM Productions", which I'd been using for years. It was just a placeholder until I thought of a name. I finally thought of one, after more years than I care to even think of...
the guy below already has a nice amount of hospital visits on his name, i remember last year he got himself in the hospital after he slipped out on his flip bs tail and the iron cooping from the fucked up manny box cut into his leg for 10cm long straight to the bone. his leg always had blood on it since then. he's also my homie and today we felt like we needed to skate again cause it already have been a while. Sunday afternoon, like usually.. getting sober again and trying to find out what your gonna do for the rest of the day. while the whole city was unskateable by the fucked up weather of the last few days we drove to a local wooden spot who was pretty dry, fooled again. he slipped out and his board slammed on his leg and cut open again and a few hours later stive tried the same spot and slipped out and landed on his side and got a dislocated wrist.

Well, Christmas is coming, and kids who've moved away are straggling back to town, so hopefully some street footage will be coming my way in the next few days. For now, this rainy day skatepark montage will have to suffice.
About a month ago I bought something called a Fig Rig (the circular thing holding the camera pictured below), and this is the first time I've really gotten to test it out for filming skateboarding. So far it seems to be doing its job nicely.
finally after selling some photos to freeze a local skate surf snow mag i could order my stuff!
got pretty down for a long time when all my shit got broken and couldn't find any motivation but now i just got my license and car as well so i'm all into skateboard photography again! a lot of shoots comin up, motivation 200% and ready for some new skate adventures. new nikon 10.5millimetah! but i still need to learn how to park tho, damn events
a white VW caddy steeeeeeeeeeeeeez
also made a new website but it's still not working a 100% http://users.telenet.be/janskyphotography/ don't use internet explorer cause it can't handle my shitty html coding. firefox and safari are my only friends :(
I threw this park montage together real quick-like, just for a glimpse of a feeling of accomplishment. I usually find park footage to be pretty dull, but maybe it'll somewhat entertain somebody. Please disregard the bad filming, park footage seems so useless to me that I don't put much effort into it. This stuff is back from August 24th. Featuring Brad Stafford (on the left) and Scott Edgerton (to the right), who used to be good friends until they made the mistake of getting an apartment together. That quickly came to an end, and Scott moved away and joined the army. He was the best about trying tricks and getting footage around here. Leaving two people left in this town who I really skate with, maybe once every couple weeks if I'm lucky. Street skating and trying to get any footage just isn't even worth the effort these days. Everyone who I used to skate with has long since moved away, luckily for them. Hopefully I don't stay in this pit of depression called Hickory, North Carolina for the remainder of my life. Please excuse my whiny, rambling incoherence.

This is the first thing I've really gotten on video since the last time I posted anything in September.
I just threw this together real quick-like. I need to work on some projects for school I've been putting off. I just got back from New York City a couple days ago, which was very nice, a much-needed break from this area.

Finally a day where something was accomplished...
As opposed to the average day spent burning gasoline and racking our brains trying to figure out a place to go.
Well, this day was the same, but we actually figured something out eventually.
It's getting to be Autumn, and I think the lack of constant miserable heat is going to pick things up over here in the wonderful old town of Hickory, North Carolina.
