So I just moved to Long Beach a few months ago, and loving it. I'm not sure if it's because I was born here way back in '73, or if it's because so many of my fondest skateboard memories were created in this very city. Either way, I'm glad to be back. Along with cruising second street with Ashley, and maxing with the crew over some quesadillas and a few coldies at the Reno Room, I've been skating the DYI skatepark at Cherry. To say the least, it's been a f-ing treat; both through the actual skating, as well as though watching the young guys shred ever so hugely. After skating I usually click off a few pics of some of the loc dogs. It's so crazy to think that these dudes' warm-up tricks were our bangers. Anyway, here is a photo I shot the other evening and a link to some others: The High Coup Flickr Page.
