Gremlin putting in work for this Spring Fling Edit. Ohio has had a long miserable winter, in fact its still snowing as I type this. Hopefully spring will shine through soon. This video is also available on our YOUTUBE.

A few weeks ago the guys (Troy Merkle, Tony Cherry, Ryan Howard, Matt Skaggs, Rick Woodruff, and Scott Marceau) and I went out to California to explore the ride spots from Beverly Hills to Long Beach. This is a photo of Ryan Howard and Rick Woodruff chilling in the van in downtown LA on top of a parking garage in the van, while Tony Cherry and Scott Marceau shoot a time lapse of the city.Scott Marceau came to photograph the trip, but here he is laying down an x-up ice with a thread the needle landing.

Here Tony and Scott are talking shop on coordinating their next shot.Gremlin rail to hop over rail!

Photo: Troy MerkleScott Marceau wasn’t happy with the first two Skaggs pulled so Skaggs did it a third time and got smashed on the sidewalk. Good lookin Scott!Troy Merkle shooting LBC from Signal Hill while searching for spots.
