Westwood.

Skated around UCLA and Westwood today. Got off to a pretty late start, but still managed to get some stuff.


Showed up to UCLA and Austin Squire was already front boarding this rail. I climbed up on top of a wall to snap some shots and two boardslides into it a cop on a bike gave us the boot.


Tislam Smith is gnarly. After getting kicked out we skated this little bank thing on top of a parking lot nearby. This here is Tislam doing a frontside ollie of death into that little bank. On the left is a 5 story drop and to the bottom right is like a 20-30 foot drop, so fucking sketchy. I just shot this one photo then decided I didn't want to encourage anyone to keep doing it and get them killed haha.


(double click and fucking watch it in HD!)
Shot a couple little videos of people skating the bank thing. Here Jake Eames killing it. I love watching Jake's flip tricks because they always look so epic and powerful.


Here is Austin messing around. Remember that there is a huge drop on the other side of the bank.


After the parking lot spot we checked out this rail spot in the hills of Westwood. Austin was the only one feeling up to it, and easily slid this boardslide to regular and to fakie.


I got a couple different angles.


Austin was done but I asked him to slide it one more time so that I could shoot from this angle, and of course he snapped his deck. Sorry Austin!
