Where?

New Spots.

Been skating and finding lots of new spots lately. Here are a bunch of the photos I've been shooting.


This spot is pretty epic. It's a ledge that apparently was built by Aaron Synder and sits on an abandoned bridge that goes over a river and under a freeway. Here Josh Campos is locked into a front blunt.


Another view of the spot as Josh Campos sets up to hit the ledge.


Austin Squire didn't land this ridiculous 50-50, but he totally could have. I'm calling you out Austin, go back and stick this shit!


Hit up this fire hydrant spot again and Ray Maldonado came through with a proper kickflip. Thats Grajeda Films lurking.


Another kickflip shot. In case you haven't noticed, Ray has been blowing up lately with a First Try Fridays and a Bangin' from the Berrics. Some kid even made a Skate 2 version of his Bangin'.


Alec Beck's ollie over this massive handicap ramp wall was really hard to shoot. So, sorry if you think my photo sucks.


This ledge is pretty sketchy, but Ray handled with a noseslide to a little 5-0 on the curb.


We went exploring for some cutty local spots and Austin Squire handled. Here he is back 180ing over a rail from one apartment complex to another.


Grajeda Films was on the scene, working the angles.


Colin was there looking all suave and shit, leaning against walls.


Grajeda, looking uncomfortable without a camera in his hand.


Austin, bringing that intensity.


Austin floating another back 180.


Unfortunately Austin snapped his board on that attempt.


Fortunately ZJ's was nearby, so Austin just went and set up a new board.


After that excursion we hit up this sketchy brick bank and Austin tail dropped into it no problem.


On another day we did some more local exploring and came across this spot in an alleyway. Josh Campos came through with this switch ollie in a line. He wanted another trick but we got kicked out.


After that we hit up this Venice Beach spot and Josh came through with a gap to noseslide.


Started dicking around with ridiculous head shots at the spot. Mr. Josue Campos.


No man is safe from Jesus' seductive glare.


The design on the side of this porta potty made me laugh. Are those suppose to be mountains, trees, and water?


We somehow ended up in Marina Del Rey skating a pretty pointless flat gap. Austin Squire gets up high on this snap.


Austin floating a first try 180.


Campos came through with a back 180.


Austin came through with the banger of the day, a cartwheel over the gap.


Finally we hit up this rail with limited run up and Austin got down with a quick front board.

Make sure to check out this blog post from Grajeda Films. It has a bunch of footage from some of the photos above.
