I might be there too. I have a plain red t-shirt. And I can barely skateboard.

Good one!
Been to L.A. many times but never got to skate the car wash bank.
Still think of Gonz sliding out on his face, sooooo gnarly.

I went back to cedar park tonight and finally started to get the hang of it. To me the lines are kinda strange, and it isn't one of those hella easy to gnar from the get-go parks. Night time brings out the 14 year old ass-hole talented ccs types and a shitload of lame-ass others.

The 14 year old solution is full speed checking. I tend to refrain from doing it to the youngins because I am not trying to break anyones bones. But Last summer a few BMXers and bratty ass skate kids got tossed. Violence IS the answer, they learn quick.

They fucked up this spot, there is rails infront of the bank on the far left of the picture, but there is still the pyramid shaped bank and banks all along the side, which also serves as a gap

yeah, it's pretty much impossible to revive this spot (unless you have access to demolition trucks or something)




the little banks on the side can still be skated, though . . . .  you just have to be able to maneuver you're way around the Stonehenge structures.

i know they are heavy as shit but if you get enough people, you should be able to push them out of the way.

haha no way. anyone that has been there and just tried to push it would tell you no matter how many people are behind it, its not moving.  most or all of them have these hooks on them like a crane dropped them in.  Im sure someone with a powerful truck with a winch could at least move most of them enough to make it skateable.

here's some pics i have on my phone




i'm pretty sure these rails are still unskated. they're kinda burly




new spot, not sure if it's been hit yet



this was a fun day. this was the pre-party for the blood wizard premier. perfect rooftop view of the action



rugged little wally spot that could be fun after some patchwork



gnarly drop in spot



double barrel rail. t-bone 5050'd it in around 5 or 6 tries. pretty rad. boardslides and lipslides are still up for grabs i think



this is around the corner from my apartment. drop in then gap to sidewalk. there's another one on the other side too, but this one is more open and hittable

That looks like loads of fun.

i didn't really like it. there's a big lip forming at the bottom of both qp's. could use some bondo. also, i dont get why they built it right there. they basically skate capped the high ledge.
when was that photo taken? is that still there? i was just there last week and i would swear it wasn't, i went there with like six homies and none of us saw it (we weren't looking for it either, but i'm pretty sure someone would notice).

it's a little odd if you don't have a surplus of step up tricks but that's the beauty of it. i love all the circular lines and how you can link them together and i've really been getting into the wedge thingy.

i usually hit it up at 7am ish and that way no crowds, no 14 year old rock stars and no heat. but i'm old like that so it's no big deal for me to get there early.
