NorCal Trip Day 2 – 7/25/09.

Second day was spent at the Lake Cunningham Skatepark in San Jose. Most amazing place I have ever been to.

This kid wanted me to take his pic and said he could do a fakie flip off the ledge. He nailed it first try and I forgot his name.

Later in the afternoon the locals showed up and proceeded to show us how to properly ride this park.

That pretty much sums it up. Skated a lot of new stuff, met a bunch of cool peeps and only one casualty (hope you are feeling better, Tim). All in all and amazing weekend with some rad dudes. Thanks for the good times.

YET, ANOTHER UNFORTUNATE INCIDENT

As Mr. Wong said in his post two days ago…”It’s an unfortunate reality that during most skate sessions someone is going to go down. Sometimes they go down pretty hard.”  Well, sometimes it’s not the rider, but the board that gets the ‘short end of the straw‘- in this case, Sam Hell’s stick…snapped.  (Dude shoulda been riding a Smash).

Q: And one more thing- who the hell is this guy..? (A: aZn ballz)

take one for the team.

It’s an unfortunate reality that during most skate sessions someone is going to go down. Sometimes they go down pretty hard. Well yesterday, Mr. Lightner was the recipient of the short straw.

A little sore, but thankfully, no broken bones.

One a lighter note, we had an amazing session and Kyle brought out his camera arsenal and went to work (pre-obliteration of course)
