I'm too lazy to read the first page; what's the reason they did this?

The whole school is getting a redesign, from what I've read.

Almost as cool as having a piece of the Berlin Wall.

Is it the same school as the leap of faith or is that just in THPS?

The Leap OF Faith is at Point Loma High School in San Diego

bet someone could probably throw (at least) a kickflip down that shit now.

I went and looked at it a long time ago and it is huge.  Plus I think there is a elevator shaft up it now that blocks it from being skateable.

That's pretty tight how the workers let Markovich ollie it one last time. Seems like they understood how is wasn't some silly little patch of grass to a lot of people.

I live 20 minutes away from Carlsbad High, and I think I've only seen that gap once.  Just like Markovich said in the video clip, I remember thinking it's not as big as I thought it was, but I still wouldn't skate it unless I was going to ollie it.

I definitely thought it was Gallant, I don't know how I never noticed that! Fuck, well I read up on this and I guess it's Chris Lambert. That's too bad, now I'm gonna spend the rest of my life wishing Gallant did a smooth ass switch backside flip down carlsbad.

Well, good for him, but that does nothing for me. Haha jk, but seriously I don't know what bums me out more, that Gallant never actually did the switch bs flip, or that I spent several years being really stoked on a trick Chris Lambert did.
