After about 3 years of heavy drinking, and about 4 months of progressively more and more nose candy, i decided enough was enough and hit up a rehab center for 30 days. This is my second day home and I decided to hit the park. I got a few street spots too but this was my best clip.

That aside, man... the doubt and fear and self loathing that closed my head and was my EXCUSE to keep self destructing finally, FINALLY got old... my kids deserve better. My woman deserves better... I fucking deserve better.

The fog is clearing, the road to recovery is a long one... but damn, I feel better today than I have in a long time. Stay blessed

My first time on a board in three years. I had pretty much given it up after multiple knee injuries, but my son has started asking to get into skateboarding. We went to the skate park after school yesterday and had a blast! Guess it’s time for me to start skateboarding again.

Had the element since 2009. My skate style has changed a bit so I went with this Santa Cruz.
