Arizona Trip - Day Four.

Alright so this is this last post of the Arizona stuff. On day five we just drove home and didn't do any skating unfortunately.

The first spot we hit up was this super fun thunderbird skate park. This photo might be really shitty, but check out Mike's salute.

Alec was killing it as usual. Back smith over the hump.

One trick wasn't enough of course. Back tail over the hump.

Ian was getting some footage.

Broah was...Broah. Check his shots from the day: Broahtography

For the second year in a row Mike just barely could not land this front board. It was ridiculous how close he was getting. Next year Mike, next year.

After thunderbird we got directions to this cactus ditch spot. Even though there were rocks everywhere, it was still fun. Mike was feeling it.

Evan started things off on this thing with a gap to grinder.

Evan again. I think he might of 5-0ed this one.

Mike was popping some steezed out ollies.

Straight ahead.

Mike reinforces Asian stereotypes with this flying ninja kick snap.

Evan has fun with a foot planter.

Last but not least is Alec with a frontside 27o to slider. He only got to try it a few times before we got kicked out by a park ranger, which sucks cause he had it for sure. Next year? I hope so.

Arizona Trip - Day Three

So on day three we started off the day at the amazing Pecos skate park.

Mike dips his nose in preparation for landing in the tranny pocket after clearing the flat bank.

Alec frontside airs out of the tranny pocket and over the flat bank. My shadow makes it look like I'm wearing some sweet JNCO's.

Broah got crazy with his grip tape.

Mike is stoked to be at Pecos.

This angle doesn't do the trick justice at all. This is Mike slashing copping frontside on the super steep tranny wall.

This kinda gives an idea of how tall and tight the beastly thing is.

Another view. Once again this one kinda fails to convey how damn tight this thing was.

Jose, Colin, and Alec in the van.

Tyler scopes out this "spot" that was a few blocks away from where we were staying. We didn't get to skate it for long, but fortunately everyone threw down a bunch of flip tricks really quickly.

Evan was feeling it.

Tyler spins a kickflip with typical mellow Tyler steeze.

Alec keeps a close eye on Ian's tre flip.

Broah comes through with a banger: fakie frontside flip.

Evan has to show everyone up and take his nollie heel to the next level.

Ian spins another smooth tre flip.

If you haven't already, go check out Broah's corresponding day three post.

Arizona Trip - Day Two.

Ah yes, the annual spring time Arizona trip. For the last few days I have been skating around the Phoenix area with Alec Beck, Colin Cook, Mike Limb, Broah, Zach Plehn, Jose, Tyler Kindred, and the Edwards bros. I missed out on the day one skating cause I couldn't leave LA until the evening, but check Broah's day one post. On the second day of the trip I wasn't feeling very inspired to shoot so I spent most of my day skating, but here are the photos that I did come up with.

The first spot we hit up was this skate park in Chandler with this pretty burly bank to wall. Alec handled a back tail no problem.

Mike frontside airs into the same tranny that Alec just tweaked an indy out of as Ian captures the footy.

Yeah this photo sucks, but I had to post it because of the awesome view of Alec's rear.

Teamwork. Another view of this epic threesome at work.

After Chandler we hit up the infamous Tempe skate park. As it was getting dark Alec was killing this cradle thing in the bowl, so I was forced to whip out the camera. Here he does a proper back smith.

A long lens view of Alec's gnarly back smith.

After getting bored of back smiths, Alec moved on to back crail slides. Here he delicately pinches his nose with sophisticated steeze.

Now go check out Broah's day two photos and sequences.
