2010,Puerto Rico

Started off 2010 in Puerto Rico and I'm still here. Since I arrived, I've blew-out my right knee, got a bit better, and then helped some of my best friends in the world "Miguel and Jorge" complete a labor of love that has been 16 years in the making. A new cement park in Quebradillas, Puerto Rico. Then once the park was finished, it claimed some more ligaments in the same knee... LoL...

You can see pics of the park at my friend Stefan Houser's site Placed-to-ride.com. Stefan is the man that owns the company that helped make this dream come true.

I'm proud to have been a part of that project.... When I was a kid riding the mini-ramp, we used to sit on the deck and tell ourselves that one day we would have a sick ass park.. That day has finally arrived....

Come ride the park... Its awesome....

some news, and some footie from alejandro...

I have not posted in a little while. I have been spending alot of time on the computer getting all the new stuff dialed and ready for production. You will see new soft goods, guys stuff, and girl stuff. There will be 8 shoe designs, available in three color ways, each. Getting closer to pre-production. Once I have everything finalized, we will publish photos, launch the new web site, and break the news about the new team riders, ect... Alot going on at the moment. Getting ready to take SCG to the next level...
Thank you all for the support,
Steven

tell those you love you love them.... go ride

derik, bart, myself, and steve M

part of the charlotte crew, and damn i miss them...

I want to ride...

I want to ride so bad....
On my way home last week, from Will and Merediths wedding in TN, I went to ride a spot here in Charlotte. I rode with some of the fellas for maybe 30 min. and my back blew up. I have been in bed for almost the entire week. A week with awesome weather, nice and sunny, and warm.. I am going to go to the skatepark now, just to hang out for a bit. then later go to the warehouse to start getting things in order. Atlanta is going to be rolling up on me pretty quick.
I am going to be spending alot more time in atlanta, especially here soon. This will be the way things are going to be for the rest of the year for sure. I wanted to just say thank you again, to all of you here in Charlotte that have been good to me over the last two, two and a half years.

07 is gone, and i couldn't been happier about that. I am looking forward to 08.. Some days, things still arent too clear, but I have my direction again, and plan on keeping it...lol

My heart still hurts from time to time, but hey, thats life...lol


thanks again, to all of you...

more soon

steven

Congrats to Mr. and Mrs Love,

Went to TN for the wedding... Man... That had to be one of the best weddings i have ever been to.. reception was great.. Meredith's dad was in the band that played the reception. when was the last time you heard the brides dad playing in the band that was killin it all night long??? and you know there was going to be a big burn out somewhere... will didnt disappoint, and the cherokee didnt blow up or lose a u joint... great times for sure...

went through blowing rock on the way home... it was absolutely amazing how beautiful it was up there.. perspective.. there is alot more going on than just you or I... its good to get out and away from the everyday.. make sure you do it from time to time..

till next time... later..

To the newly weds, Will and Meredith, I wish you both all the best.. They are both great individually, and will be even better together... 2008 is going to be a awesome year...

much love,
steven

jaw breaker, jet black...

This song kinda sums up the night...lol...
Jet Black
Dear You LP/CD

I'll be quiet to keep you quiet.
Don't concern yourself with my slow dying.
Through the vents I hear you sigh.
I don't get too high these days.
Your floor is my ceiling.
Lights out, you can't come in.

If you don't remind me, I won't forget you.
If you don't ask, I won't upset you.
I am jet black.
I am stone cold.
Jet black to the center.
Funny like a funeral.
I need you to bury me.

White noise in black room dust.
These hands long for one last touch.
Hourglass all out of trust.
I don't scratch so I won't itch.
I don't reach so I won't miss.
I taste our last kiss.

If you don't remind me, I won't forget you.
If you don't ask, I won't upset you.
I am jet black.
I am stone cold.
Jet black to the center.
Funny like a funeral.
I need you to bury me.

This is the cure: the same as the symptom.
Simple and pure: break to keep fixing.
Patiently nurse,
patient and nurse.
This is the part I wouldn't show you.
The part where you say, "I don't even know you."
This is your cue.
Be glad that it's through.

I am jet black.
I am stone cold.
Jet black to the center.
Funny like a funeral.
I need you to bury me.


There comes a time when, like it or not, you have to move on. You have to pull away. You have to let go. How do you do that, with out leaving a part of you behind? What can one do, to not hurt any more? How do you stop a heart from aching?
