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.
