        Strait to blog line, at freemont.

Nov. 3rd 2008 - Rain, and vote!
        It's raining. Also, don't forget to vote tomorrow, vote for the correct dude, don't be a foggot. And vote YES on measure Q dammit! Later.

Oct. 31st 2008 - So, I finally
        Got a cell phone, and so begins the new chapter. I gotta say, from a standpoint of someone who hasn't ever had one, ever: It seems like you guys (people with cell phones) have the shortest attention span I've ever seen. Maybe thats just because we're moving faster and faster as a consciousness stream. Or maybe it's because it really does alter your brain chemistry to be unfocused or something, who knows, (it's probably the first one).
        All I know is this phone is going to be epic sesh's, girls, oppertunities, money, girls, everything in between, and repeat. I can't say that when I clicked confirm payment on the cream colored ebay screen, that I had any regrets....hello world....my name is Niko Robinson, and you will soon know me quite well!

Oct. 25th 2008 - New beginnings

first day out

Here's a montage from yesterday, the first day out with it, and it was fun. It's interesting to note the entirely newlearning curve that accompanies filming with a lens, kinda feels like starting high school again.

Oct. 23rd 2008
        Andrew covers a sesh, 'Krooklyn' hype oh shiiiii

Oct. 16th 2008 - ....Complete!
                             yeeeessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oct. 1st 2008 - A Happy Medium
        A Happy Medium is a new film from buster o' shea, it features a lot of really nice skateboarding and filming from the arizona area. buy it at unicron.net, they have good videos and very nice service. Skateboarding is hella fun and remember kids the only person holding you back is yourself. As a solid week off of work comes to and end I can anticipate the next time, I'll see you around town you wonderful regular you.

Oct. 1st 2008 - ....Eh.
        ...Almost complete

Sep. 30th 2008 - Lens
         Finally, after about 1 1/2 years, the journey...is compltete.......

Sep. 29th 2008 - Awesome Trip
         On Friday morning the revolution crew and the freedom skateshop crew took 3 day excursion into SF SC and SJ. Cool Car was cool. Photos were photogasmic. Footy was fantastic. Bros were Broing. It was all good. Can't wait for the next one guys, cheers! And be on the look out for the revo promo, said to drop in a coulple months, should be radical.

Sep. 25th 2008
         Pleasant Skateboards 2008 Promotional video. Get hyped.

Sep. 15th 2008
        Ruben II gets assimilated into the crew. Fast skateboarding reminisant of a young stephen carlin.

Sep. 14th 2008
        Krooked Kronicles tour footage. Rest in Peace man!

Sep. 9th 2008 - Living on through everyone.
        The tragic loss of Van Wastell was just that, tragic, and it hit a lot of people very hard. Write something on your board, spray paint something somewhere, do what you want, take a second to honor this dude, he was amazing.

Aug. 31st 2008 - Toebock!
        "Don't Act Famous" was a smash hit, definetly purchase a copy.
Max Schaaf ones up everyone. I know you had always thought about that, and so have I, I'd be curious to see how less powerful ones would affect flip tricks. Also I'm predeicting that this will someday be BIG. I know for a fact skating stairs would be more fun if you didn't have to catch anything, or at least, the board would come to you. Why spend years and years learning how to make the board rise up to your feet when technology can do it for you.

Aug. 28th 2008
        Wake up this morning at 7:50 for other reasons today...but get a link to this. Needless to say it was a good way to start any day.

Aug. 26th 2008 - Clip
        Some runs from today, inside the chalker compound. Here.

Aug. 19th 2008

        This is now part blog part webart. Today I:

  1. Fell on my hand

Thats it, enjoy your life.

        Damn, this footage is almost a decade old. Life rolls along as fast as those four wheels do..

(By Jay Masonek)

Aug. 2nd 2008 - New Video
        New short I made of two girls who will remain the names Annie and Katie until they e-mail me their full ones. Also I'm sure the beautiful song has a title too but that I won't know until I get the name. But, lagaistics aside, enjoy.

July 24th 2008 - Downtime
        There will be some, give it a week or so, not my doing. See you then, new updates will be waiting.

July 14th 2008 - Rewards
        Hey my thingy from 2 posts down won. Just goes to show you that if you really want something it's yours, just make sure you don't go through life worried or unconfident or at worst complaining about anything, you just attract the negetive result when you do those things.

July 11th 2008 - Nostalgia
        Last night Jay Masonek sent me this montage he edited from footage that takes you back to the near quintessential 03-06' days of skateboarding in SoRo. Time to reflect on some radical times.

July 8th 2008 - Stacy Keibler is hot
        I've been working on an entry to a contest going on at crailtap.com right now. I just finished, this is the final product. Come on Howerd Selects!

July 3nd 2008 - OMG Internet!
        Holy hell, a solid month of no updates, amazing. Just got the internet back from a 2 week sober streak without it, and it feels good once again. Film page has info in it, thats about it for now, later dogs new shit soon, hella hype!

Jun. 2nd 2008 - OMG Footage!
        Damn, already June, time really goes by fast. Actually there isn't really a such thing as time, things age due to the amount of exposure to the elements, and clocks and calendars are just peices of paper and numbers. Anyway, heres a mini montage of footage! Damn how longs it been since I've posted some of that. I can't wait to go to bed right now, goodnight.

Mar. 31st 2008
        Past couple days have been racking up some footy. Wes got 8 clips today alone. Once I get my firewire cable back, it's on! New ledge has been butter, if you havn't heard ask around. See you hopefully after the weekend before you can nurse your hangover in time for work. Peace Holmes

Apr. 27th 2008
        Back from the coast for the weekend, super fun, although I think I got sick and I've had the hickups for 7 hours, very annoying. Been messing around with after effects some more. I recently finished rendering out this planet, take a look see. Until next time.

Apr. 21st 2008
        Lately I've been out there trying to make skateboarding more fun on the streets of santa rosa. You know, doing my part, the popularity of the ledge across from 7-11 on west steele is growing, good folks are now waxing more parts of that, the spot is fresh and you can skate it hastle free all you want. I'm not going to drop the local of the next ledge, but, I'm going to be messing around with super acrylic, so, this shit should be amazing. Hopefully it'll set a tight trend, and the days of starting a ledge from 'scratch' or 'raw' will be over, and suddenly santa rosa will be a wonderland or ledge paradise or chocolate factory. Anyway, How are you old pal? Cool, heres this picture I took while in Nashville for a weekend in 97'. Peace.

Apr. 11th 2008 - New Extra
        Extra section updated. Heres a clip of a male named Leon becoming a female when placed in the harsh enviornment of 'leechman' in the video game resident evil (if none of this makes sense, be glad, heres the clip).

Apr. 10th 2008
        I'm not dead, neither is this site! I updated the secret page, I don't think anyone knows where that is though, good luck finding it, for those who do, a semi wealth of knowledge is waiting for you.

Apr. 1st 2008 - Throwaways pt. 1
        I figure I'll do something small like this every now and then, random footy, throwaway tricks, etc. This is the first installment.

Mar. 26th 2008

        What happens when you take 4 people that can't act. Two 5's. 1 person who doesn't know how to talk to women and wears XXL shirts that belong to other people? Well, you pretty much get this. In other news, I just won a box of krooked gear fool FUCK YEEEEEEEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Super sucker it'll suck your fucking face off!!!!!!!!!!!! So in light of that, for the retarted who don't know what da real shit be, I'll plug dlxsf.com, just this once. Bye now, I suggest you learn how to consciously manifest your reality suckas!!! Love.

Mar. 18th 2008
        Posts got cut, youtube videos gone, to make the page more espeedy. Here are the links, if you can't live without seeing them with a brick background:
        Kareem - Trilogy
        Sheffey - Soldiers story
        Lavar - Trilogy
        Oh, what was that? Umm, no, no interesting content this time, I'm sorry. One thing you can do, and in exchange I shall reward with binary brilliance, soon. Whisper in your head now "Niko is a millionaire." Hah! already did, gotcha mofo! Thanks for the brain power sucker!

Mar. 13th 2008
         "The Kramer" (Circa 2004).

Mar. 9th 2008
         Went to Novato the other day. Rexworth put it down. (Hope I'm spelling that right.) Everytime I randomly meet up with this dude he gets bangers, give it about 10 or so encounters and you'll have a full part in the next vid man.

Mar. 4th 2008 - New Photos
        Hey look, backgrounds. And some new photos, all of which suck except the last one.

Mar. 2nd 2008 (12:33 AM) - New Video
        
Alright, quicker than I thought. Heres a really really short about cherry blossoms.

Mar. 2nd 2008
         Just a reminder for the blind or retarted or frenchmen or all three, it's cherry blossom season, so don't forget to get your art fag on or wait another year. I've been falling a lot lately, only on smaller things, I attribute this to the idea that one would be more confidant and what not with the little tricks, falling doesn't even cross ones head (or hyper-consciousness at least), so your just kinda doing the trick and whatevs, not really putting in the thought you need to. Think about it, big or small, put your attention into your board, or you'll hurt your knee twice in 2 days. I lied about the photos, hahahaha bitch! But, I've been doing something with cherry blossom footage...Thats all you'll know for now, check back tomorrow or the next day or something. In the meantime, check this commentary on the war on drugs, it's AMAZING.

Feb. 26th 2008 - Clip
         
Hey, long time no you interested in interesting things I do because there haven't been any. I guess I could throw some more photos up from the archives on my computer, sure, I'll do that, next time. Knowledge is truly the most valuable thing you can accumulate while living, it really is. Lately I've been doing a lot of effects work, trying to get down my AE skills down, (insert napoleon dynamite reference, girls only like guys blah blah blahalh). Things like this. So, Perhaps for a little while the updated videos will just be clips of effects. At least until I get back on the short film game.

Feb. 21st 2008 - I'm back!
         My second return, this time enduced not by lazyness but by being off the internet. Hadn't had it for about a week, and it was a harsh road, lots of reading books and pokemon red. So yeah, continue to peep the scene frequently once again.
