POOL R.I.P.

A pool in MV!

For the last two summers we had a pool to skate at an abandoned apartment complex. IT was shitty and square with an un-skate-able shallow end and no carve-able corners. But what the pool lacked in skate-ability it made up for with complete availability. There was no way we were gonna get busted, and it was right in our hood. We showed up with beers and BBQs. We stood around in the bottom talking about tricks and ideas. We invited people who hated it and never came back. It was our pool, and it got bulldozed the other day. Here's the photos.

The place was so chill we brought our girlfriends.

The first summer we skated the pool we had set a goal. One of us was going to do a trick on the coping before the rain came. Here it is. KC rode up fakie and did a tail stall. It was so killer. This is a photo of the first one he ever pulled. Hes got it on lock now.
