96 Degrees In The Shade...



Real Hot. That's what it is today. 103 degrees with 26% humidity. The Dog Days of Summer. We went to the skatepark early and kids were already ripping and dripping with sweat. I broke out with a 180 no-comply and started an impromptu step hop sesh with all those in attendance. It reminded me of the old streetplant sessions I used to witness. Fun. Kids were doing endless no-comply variations so I stepped it up and busted out the step hop shove-it which has been shelved since 1989. It is nice to see the state of skateboarding today because anything goes. New or Old School, No School Rules. From the kids in spray on jeans doing backside 180 kickflips over the stairs to the old men in high tops stylin' out a backside Smith grind anything goes. Today's pics are the skate rats on the roll in and a kid named Travis caught mid-flip over the drop at Coonskin.
