Og De Souza is one of a few people that can skate with no legs.
I remember being shocked when I saw his 411VM part in 2004.

I enjoyed the movie, but my favourite part was with Slavoj Zizek.

Happy New Year

Happy New Year!  This year I’m hoping to spend more time blogging, travelling, reading, skating, developing, designing, filming, and taking photos. I’ve decided to do a 365 photo set on Flickr, which involves taking a photo every day for a year. I’d like to add useful tutorials soon, but I’m currently busy with a client’s new website and I’m refreshing my old sites. http://www.flickr.com/photos/vel_lanquibo
