Went to the new raleigh park today, which turned out to be the ribbon cutting ceremony. It actually ended up being pretty empty after the ceremony, cause I guess no one is dumb enough to go on the grand opening day. But we actually scored it fairly empty. Sessioned once, then had to make a trip to the emergency room, and 6 stitches later, we returned once more and shot these photos. Then headed to wake forest to skate Factory. All in all a fun trip.
Shot this a few hours ago. Had to find a wall outlet outside to charge my receiver, since it unknowingly turned on in my bag, draining the battery. We’ll probably go back to this spot later in the week to grab some more shots. Click on it to enlarge.
So the Boone trip was a blast. It will be my future home for sure, I love it up there. The weather was beautiful on saturday, apparently the nicest its been in a while. Got some good shots, and the skyports ended up working great, with only a few misfires that could be attributed to my flash recharge time. Bunch of guys came out to skate. I got a SUPER nice shot of Adam Robert sweatstancing this burly kink rail, but I won’t post that one up just now, just incase its used for his interview in ONE mag. But for now I’ll post up this shot of Phil Gripper from Charlotte, NC lacing this fishbrain. He ripped this rail a new one.
Had a session at Gregory School today, in downtown Wilmington. Click on the images to view it larger.
