Tim hanging a wheeler out there!

Rob has these hips dialed, another foater over over the hip.
|
Wes ollies into a 50-50 off the hip.
|
Steve getting up there on the clam.

Jesse lives just 20 minutes away, and is only 16. I wish I had something like this to skate when I was his age!
|
Andre can skate anything. Backside air for him is like walking.
|
Ok, I'm dangerous now. I just figured out how to make animated gif files. Hope it's not too annoying, and I hope it doesn't take too long to download.

The guy in the background is on the city council for Carnation. He and his son were happy to see how popular the park was already.

Steve full speed 50-50 around the deep end (like ususal).
|
I think Doug took this shot with my SLR. You can kind of get a feel for how high it is. Tolt Middle School is in the background.
|
I'm still learning how to air over the hips. This one is shallow to deep, so it sends me higher in the air, than I'm use to. I took this shot out of Rob's video camera. I thought it was cool.
|
This was another shot taken out of Rob's video camera. I thought it was cool.
|
Rob's getting up there on the clam shell.
|
Rob does these gnarly laybacks, and rides away like nothing.
|
I think it's just rad to skate at 51 years old. That's what Roy is doing.
|
If you're ever feeling old, just remember Doug is still skating at 50.
|
Well, Rob decided a shot from inside the shell would cool. I had a lot of speed (more than I was expecting) and as I hit the coping, I over shot it a little, I was watching my front wheel ride up on the coping. I was more than a little scared. I didn't mean to do that. But it was rad.
|
Here's a close up of the double edger on the shell. Gnarly eh? Don't expect me to do that again, I feel glad I was able to walk away.
