Jake sent me an email on Nov 14th but sent it to my "non work" email address and I rarely check that... but here it is on Nov 27th! Better late then never, right?
From Jake Jones:
"For all you kiddies out there, Tommy Fynn has been in the states killing it for the last 2 months. Peep this 50-50 warm up....keep your eyes peeled for the secret sequence and footy of what went down on this monster...Tommy is our secret weapon of mass destruction!"

Hello everyone, konicihiwa and all that! I'm in Japan and in case you didn't
know or have ever wondered..... Japan is rad. This place is a real city. Buildings upon buildings stacked one over the other. Amazing for skateboarding and quite relaxed about it too... if you know the right places.
I've had almost two straight weeks of perfect weather and good spots everyday. I'm skating with some old Canadian tourmates friends, Trevor Houlihan, Bradley Sheppard and Geoff Dermer. Serious DejaVu and story time with this crew.
A big kanpai and thank you to Hirotoshi Kawabuchi, Abe Chan, Go Ueda and
Hiroki "Watcho" Watanabe.


In case any of my friends or family are reading this.. No, I didn't get you anything. Sorry......
