This is a picture that Jake's friend Andrew took last Wednesday when they were skating at the old Ventura Star newspaper building. Jake has been doing really well with his skateboarding. He has picked up a few sponsers. Factor 54 is a clothing sponser that has sent Jake all kinds of T-shirts and sweatshirts. And his other sponser is Redbull, they keep him supplied with energy drinks. Jake likes to take roadtrips to different locations to go skating with his friends. Often he will go down to LA to skate a bowl or some other famous skate spot. He is getting ready to take a trip to skate San Francisco this next weekend.
