BEAGLE Tapes: Episode 58 – Beagle and Dustin Dollin

A summer day in Cerritos, CA. The Skate Tank takes a trip down south to Jacob Park. Beagle, eyes a combo from block-to-block, while Flip Nasty remains in the vehicle enjoying an ice cold IceHouse. After several attempts, Beagle has a short victory ride from a 50-50 180 to switch 50-50 fakie frontside half Cab out. Beagle then takes control of the TRV900, so he can film Theotis Beasley while Reno retires and takes a short siesta on a hot summer day. Theotis lands a frontside switch manual in a head-to-toe getup, compliments of SoleTech.

The following day, traveling north to the San Fernando Valley, Braydon Szafranski attempts a backside noseblunt on a 8-stair rail. The crew stays lit on hot wax and Sparks on the grass.

Into the night, at 5724 Hollywood Boulevard, the Baker House has a un-welcomed eight legged guest. Reno attempts an Indiana Jones style kill, but fails. Beagle finishes the job with an execution by print media. Shortly following the insects death, an offender falls asleep on the couch with his shoes on and a beer in his hand. Reno takes no time to address the violation, draws a condiment gun and fires. Corysco becomes a “catsup charlatan.”

The day after, Dustin Dollin decides he wants to kickflip noseslide the Wilshire 15-stair rail. After a few attempts he asked to leave the property by building security. Quick to improvise, he finds a wooden 15-stair rail at the Keck School of Medicine of USC. Similar to THPS, he “fandangles” one all the way down. Lance Dawes gets the sequence. Circa 2007 – BEAGLE

At a 14 stair in Pasadena, Eric Koston attempts a nollie heelflip and Braydon Szafranski attempts a fakie kickflip. The combination of height and length prevails, and the boys come up empty handed. Upon Chad Muska’s request, Reno, the underdog, throws a boneless down the 14 and rides away victoriously. Muska, keeps the street lit and Atiba Jefferson gets the flick.

The following day, at a bus station off the 101 freeway, Chad Muska stakes his claim on a never-touched wall-grind. Chad begins a dance of madness, it takes two to tango. The spot and skater, confidence and creativity, all it takes is ONE. First round knock out, swagger like Mic-Fuckin-Jagger. Against the grain on the 101, a path less traveled. Circa 2006. – Beagle
