new photo's

sorry these are taking so long.
by the way, i'm putting the edited photo's on here only.
if you want the originals, check my facebook cause i just chuck them all up there and you guys can choose what photo's you want.

well, all of these ones are taken from lindsays camera, cause he's the only motherfucker who had a decent fisheye. and i think he actually got angry at me towards the end cause i kept using it haha.
but heres some from micca, throwing down a table over the hip and tucks, and for the short time he had them; flairs.
such it was such a fucking good day, boris and brock had icypoles.
boris and brock had about 500 goes each at lookbacking the hip, and i'm still not happy with how they turned out. maybe next time.
and yeah brock just doing his thing, tobogganing, and tyresliding everything
jack and kory had a good sesh on the big quarter.
fuck they are getting good those little cunts.

HAHAHA and just for good measure..

fuck you brock little ass licking motherfucker.




















haha naaahhh. just kidding.
im gonna post another blog about it.
when you say please

HAHAHAHA

yessss.

no wonder we're so behind skaters in filming, editing and just in general.
take a look at this video


like fuccckkkk.
how are we meant to contest with that!?

Well.

i have a fuckload of photo's to post, and i'll start from the start.
and then post all the others in different posts, otherwise it will jsut get too crowded.

Okay, so this lot is from boris' lasttt? friday i think it was.
me stu and lindsay went out there to dig at like 12:00 and i decided to take some b&w shots using kory's long lens. but anyway, to the main point. Dean rocked up at like 1:00 and had school at 1:30, so yeah did the obvious option and wagged, for good reason, only to see the kids shredding the big set at boris' for the first time. and fuck they are big, look at this shot of micca standing watching Dean, and thats the 1st! haha oh fuck that!
Dean just using his natural trail flow to shred, and micca doing his thing, loving the last double.
i especially love this shot, i dunno why, it just cause everyone is just watching in awe haha.
i just love black and white shots in general actually.
they just look really moody, i guess is the word

and heres one from the park; Jamie- smith to 180, what a fuckhead haha.

oh, and im sorry i have to post all these photo's in links.
but for some reason my computer doesnt like the uploader in this thing.
and yeah, i've got fuckloads more. i'll post them now

check this out!

Saw this on thecomeup yesterday and i just had to post this.
yeah, the edit may be a little shitty, but unreal riding.
these guys are taking it to a new level.

Rhys Newling

For those of you out there who don't know this aspiring videographer, Rhys Newling.
he's 18 or 19?, sexy, talented, intelligent and makes sick video's.
http://www.rhysnewlingvideo.blogspot.com/

here's one of his video's now.

july edit 09 from rhys newling on Vimeo.


be sure to check his blog.

oh, and fuck yes. the other nigiht stu rang me and told me about this drug and alcohol survey whats on tonight.
so i rang up and you get paid a cool $70 for an hour and a half work!
brrraaap!

haha later!

okay

so yep.
After looking at all these http://www.monsterchildren.com/ and http://www.thecobrasnake.com/ photo's
they inspired me to take some black and white photo's.
I wish i had cool people to take photos of.
but i made do with what i had
here's a couple.

yeah, i photoshopped the film edges onto it. i know this is really cheap but if
i had an analogue camera, and a developing studio, i'd be able to do it the proper way, instead of the gay way. I want an analogue camera and sick camera gear, and the knowledge how to use it.

I dunno why i like this one.
maybe cause its plain. and i shot at 1600 ISO so it would be all grainy.. like if you used 1600ASA film.

i dunno.
i wish you could just be "good" at things.
instead of having to learn all the tricks and stuff.
and i wish there was no such thing as natural talent.

just a peg basket.
theres really nothing to take photo's of around my house at all.
and i really really like black and white photo's.
maybe not for bike shots, but for stuff like this, I love it.

Interview: Lindsay Mcmahon

Okay,
so what, its like 1:26am, just got back from another party at stu's which seem to get fucking better every time, but the main point here folks is, cause i couldnt drink that much cause i have a vagina, (i've got tonsilitis again i think) (well the symptoms add up anyway) i decided to do a quick interview with a perth mess called Lindsay Mcmahon.
I was going to stay at stu's but i got to excited cause i wanted to post this, and plus i had mi goreng in the cupboard.

hahahaha. if i do say so myself.
this edit is pretty fucking funny.

stingray's "video diary" at the end fucking takes the cake.
for all of you out there who dont know stingray.. his is a modern day "kevin keefsneil" but a heroic character who doesnt hide his identity behind fake mustaches and flannellette shirts.
straight out of jindy.. reppin the boarder hahaha.
fuck. should be done in a few minutes.. just touching up some thiings haha.

new edit

Yep, thats right folks.
its in the works.

we managed to fill two tapes while there.
good timessssssss haha.
fuck, i realised why i love albury.
oh and why i hate not being 18 still.
fuck life.

fuck, so much footage for stingray ahaha.

note: for those who dont know stingray when i post this, it's all actually a joke.
he's not that much of a cockhead.
although, close to it..

Tomorrow.

Heading into melbs tomorrow with lindsay earlier before FP, to get a bit of a ride in.

for our upcoming movie of the crew (or whats left of it)

actually, i've been talking about it more lately.
so everyones actually gotten real psyched on it! like started calling out things that they want to do, that already sound epic. so they better follow through with this.
maybe this will motivate us lazy cunts!
BOOM!
riverside motherfuckerrrrrrrr!

(L)

Charger

Well since i have no clue where my camera charger is..
i wont be posting any photo's for a while.
hopefully it will turn up somewhere

Focalpoint this weekend!

SO excited for this weekend!
as stu said, everyone is going to need at least 6 changes of underwear for the night.
cause everyone will just shit they're pants through the entire movie..

update: new blog

okay, ahh i made another one.
www.patrickstokesblog.blogspot.com
i couldnt think of any other names
haha so if you think of one. let me know.
okay, so.. the other one is for shit talking, and this one is photos

p.s i've got the sweetest hippy pants on.
fuck they are unreal

New blog

mannnn, i'm keeping this blog for like all my photo's.
definately making another one so i can just talk shit, so they're separated
cause this is fun, talking about stuff that no-one really wants to hear about.
like my bird, cause that makes everyone sad. No-one wants to hear about a deceased bird while trying to look at photos. that sucks

so yeah, making a new one. will update telling (whoever reads this bullshit) of the site address.

but before i go make one.. i've just gotta say:
How funny is this photo from cup day last year.
dont ask what happened. cause i dont remember

bird

Oh fuck. i feel bad.

Our bird got pneumonia last night cause he got left outside in his cage all night last night, and we took him to the vet cause he was real puffy, and they gave him some anti-biotics and told us to keep him in a warm place, so mum put his cage in the bathroom.

and i just walked in to go to the toilet and he's died :(

poor bird.

why do all our animals die?

I'm not looking forward to tomorrow

The Waiting list

Super stoked to see new Focalpoint video: The waiting list!







27th of june, Mercat Cross Hotel, 456 Queen Street Melbourne!

Heard from a guy on the inside; Marnolds part in particular is amazing.. along with jase, coopers, fahy-hampton, flagz', polly's.. actually, i've just heard the movie is going to be amazing..

Even more stoked that defero will be shown with it too!
I'm dying to see this, mostly cause its produced mainly by a B-town local: Chris Matthews.
give it up! hahaha.


fuck it, i've decided im making another movie.
Hopefully with full length parts

cunts, get your filming boots on

Old times

Watching all the old riding video's i made.
Fuck i miss all the old times :(
No-one had girlfriends* and riding was a main priority.
oh well, times change i guess

Autumn/Winter Edit from Patrick Stokes on Vimeo.

Street sessions from Patrick Stokes on Vimeo.

*except micca, and also, not to say that girlfriends are necessarily bad, it's just we dont get to see them as much cause they're in love hahahahah

texting

Hahah, do you know what I hate?
when people that text you.. and you get the message and dont reply*.
Then they send it again.. thinking you didnt get it hahaha.
I just didnt want to reply you silly fucker!

*excludes sometimes, because i often run out of credit haha

Mi goreng

sooooooo yep.
I mainly just wanted to say that mi goreng...

although, it is so god damn good when you're eating it.

it has serious, repercussions.

including stomache ache, which i have right now. fuck.

so yeah, eat it in moderation, dont do what i do and and get eager and have too much.

Also, my photography teacher, leigh, im pretty sure is like roughly 75-80% retard.

I hate teachers that are stupid. cause when you ask them something, to do with the subject that they're teaching.. they dont have a clue what your talking about.

I mean they spent a minimum of 3 years at uni? if not more to learn to teach.

so my conclusion for leigh is that he's just pretty much drunk everyday, or on drugs

yeah, probably drugs

sessions 6

For some reason i've been really into dance music lately

and a friend just burnt me sessions 6

dayyyuuummmm

yep its pretty good

get on that shit

2009

I hate this year.
Year 12 sucks, and its not even the schoolwork that makes it suck.
Its the fact that everyones either finished year 12 or dropped out.
This year would be tolerable some people weren't wankers.
i want this year to be over already...

Traaaaaiiiiilllllllss

Finally had some good weather yesterday. I was the only one not hungover.. and even got like.. 13 hours sleep or something ridiculous.

So yesterday morning, woke up, called everyone that would answer their phones, and only a handful of people were up or some people were still fucking stoned or drunk from the night before haha. Anyway, yeah so decided we would all meet at brocks then went down to the old park for a bit, which was good i guess, for a bit anyway, then decided to go out to the trails which were sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet. cause it gave me the chance to shoot trails finally.

Brock was blasting toboggans, t-dizzles and bangin' inverts all over the shop. Boris, using his natural stylish trail flow and little Kory going big, as the little fucker does!

Haha, but i gotta get to class, but no doubt i'll be on later cause this shit is addictive!

first post!

Wow! so going through peoples myspace's recently, and it seems like everyone has one of these things.
so after a while i thought.. fuck it. I'm making one too.
So here i am haha.

I'll post more soon!
