Noone else came out to Wheeling last night and we ended up driving home at three in the morning instead of camping out but it was a good time as usual. Here is the rundown.
Balmy conditions… check.
Scary movie type fog rolling in… check.
Local kids fighting… check.
Local kid ripping… check.
Local kids shooting pellet guns that look like Glocks into the trees instead of skating… check.
Brett Borovic backside heelflip 180… check.
Next stop for Paco is another Loveland park. He noted that there are four concrete parks in Loveland that are all about 15 minutes away from each other. Sounds like Loveland is the place to be.
Next stop for Paco is another park in Loveland Colorado. This one was under construction but he was able to ride it. You have to love that concrete wave wall. It looks cool and Paco said it’s super fun to ride.
Paco (a.k.a. “Mall Grab”) is out in Colorado and sending updates from his park stops. The first stop we have here is Eden Park in Loveland Colorado. Stay tuned for more updates…
I decided I am going to try to get into brokenCYDE. Let me know what you think.
Thank god, more footage of my new favorite band.
Finally edited some photos from my most recent trip out to Socal and AZ. Perfect weather, as usual, and the smoothest concrete anywhere.
Ohio transplant Isaac Edwards goes full frontal 50/50 at Pala Skatepark
Isaac showing that he truely does go both ways….just as I suspected
Went to Svitak’s house to skate, but ended up playing badminton for 3 hours.
Watch out for the guard dog.
Shot over to AZ to skate this masterpiece. This is Goodyear. Its massive. Go there!
This is Peoria, my favorite AZ park. The best clover bowl in the southwest.
Another shot of the clover. I lost $5 to Isaac because he was able to throw a smith over those steps before me.
This is DC Mike. Hes actually not from DC, hes from Roanoke VA. He lives in Phoenix now, so technically, hes AZ Mike. Thats too complicated. Lets just call him Mike. We have been eating hotdogs and drinking beers for a long time.
We had to get out of AZ the next morning early. Had one of those nights I probably should have died, I will leave it at that. Hit the Pala park one more time before coming home to 10 degree weather.
I skated this thing last November in which I sprained my right wrist real bad. When I rode it again in Feb, I sprained my left wrist. This bowl apparently has my number.
Man, I really need more friends to move to nice places so I can sleep on their floors!
