Filming With Abisha
Category: Lisa's Blog Published Date
I met Abisha and her friend Bryce at Garden Grove High. We decided it would be better to warm up on
a ledge spot down the street rather than starting the day off jumping down stairs.
Abisha filmed a few lines. She's pretty big time these days and travels around with 2 filmers. Ha!
Monique lives right down the street and met up with us. We skated this spot together 10+ years ago.
Next we went to check out a plane replica in a park that has been skated in a few videos. You can
skate the wing as a bank or do wall rides. Unfortunately the park was under construction and there was
a fence around it. After a quick session we drove around checking out a few more spots with no luck
and called it a day after the sun went down.

Arizona Ditch Day
Category: Lisa's Blog Published Date
We stayed the night in San Carlos after the Apache Skateblast and woke up early Sunday morning so
we could squeezing in as much skating as we could in Phoenix on the way back. We only made it
about 2 minutes west of our hotel before pulling over to check out a ditch on the side of the road.
Leticia got a few tricks by 9:00 a.m.
Lisa, Monique, Monica, Abisha, Leticia, Patricia and Ana Paula.
The quick spot check turned into a couple hour session.
After food and a 2 hour drive we finally arrived in Phoenix mid afternoon. Monique and our Az tour guide
Carli.
I had always wanted to go to this spot, but now that I've been I can say that videos and photos of this
place do not give it justice. Leticia was killing the bank side and learned a new trick.
Abisha got a few things as well and has officially started filming for her part in "That's Blogable!".
Monica 5-0. We skated the banks until everyone was too tired to continue. The lack of sleep and
amount of skating was catching up to us and we still had a 4+ hour drive ahead of us. After Leticia got
one last sequence the Brazilians started their drive home while we stopped by the Thunderbird park for a
quick session before getting on the road shortly behind them.
P.S. - Losing battery power to an anti-theft radio and not knowing the code to reboot it before leaving on
a road trip is not advised. :(

Amy stopped by to distract me from work today. It started with a stunt show in the parking lot...
...then it moved inside where she demonstrated her slalom skills before having to head back to school.

Windy Sunday
Category: Lisa's Blog Published Date
This morning when I woke up to a wet yard and thought our skate plans would be scratched, but Ana
Paula assured me it was dry at her place so I picked up Lacey and Cameron and headed north.
After meeting up with Ana Paula and Leticia we went back to a ledge spot we went to the weekend
before. The ground was dry, but big gusts of wind were making it hard to skate...Leticia found other
ways to stay entertained.
We spent the rest of the day driving around the city checking out spots.
We'll be back!

Lazy Day
Category: Lisa's Blog Published Date
Today Lacey and I met up with Leticia and Ana Paula at a LA school yard. They thought ahead and
brought a broom to clean the the run up around the ledge.
Lacey warming up while Leticia watches.
Leticia wasn't feeling good today, so she took it easy.
Ana Paula made her feel a little better with some funny portraits.
Afterwards we went back to the new LA Plaza so Lacey could check it out.
