i wish i had photos of alot of different skaters, but thats kinda what happens when its the same few people skating it. it wasnt like it wasnt open alot, because it was open almost all the time; it wasnt like their was another indoor park to skate, because the slippery corporate run mall atmosphere espn zone was closed; it wasnt like it was sketchy to skate, because it was damn strong and had a smooth layer; it was like people were afraid to try and skate it. i know alot of people that would have loved to have skated this. and the rippers that i would have loved to have seen skate this- the ones who could utilize all the hairy transfers. but unfortunately, it never happened for most of them. so my friends and i skated the shit out of it and had a blast. its hard to complain about that i guess. anyway, heres a few of the people that could embrace a good challenge on their skateboard.

over the door tricks were a blast, especially this one on boomers. palmer photo

nels is hiding behind that tucked frontside air way up there

palmer got some slide over the door. george photo

this coping got smithed by palmer and a few others. george photo

chris sessions was all over that vert wall with his bag

chris ollies from about 3 feet below up to this truck bash

i told cam he had to aim for the coping and somehow that helped him get up on that set back ledge. i know yanking it in is the balls you gotta find yourself

this was not an easy photo to take. look how wide the ledge is i had to crawl out and sit on. i was probably more scared than cam, who was the only one to hit the pool block in the tube
