PHOTOGOON/STORY TELLER: BROOKS FRITZ

For the last part of our stay in Seattle we decided to stray away from the skate parks and hit up some street spots around town. I know, how lame! I’m just kidding. I love the streets dawg! Where’s the slappy curbs at? Or the 4 stair? You know there’s nothing better then pushing around town throwing your carcass off of something right? On a serious note, Seattle might be a city that is wet 3/4 of the year but I gotta give it up and say when it is dry there are some spots to be had.

Like this double set. Waiting for you and your carcass hucking special technique. What’s you got fool?

The first spot CEO took us to was this asphalt bump to round rail. Spot was pretty crust. But all in all pretty good.

While everyone else was at the bump to rail Sloan and Xander found this wall ride over a meter. Pretty rad.

Right before dark we got to the bank to jersey barrier spot. I was super hyped thinking I was going to be able to finally skate when…

I noticed this no entry sign

A Jersey bank to jersey barrier.  Amazing design huh? Pretty Ingenious idea dont you think? It’s amazing how sometimes when they build these things in skate parks they somehow manage to fuck them up.

The barrier session was done and everyone was ready to chow down. No better way to end the day then with some Dick’s!

After a night of camping we decided to head over to Marginal Way to skate for the day.  You might be wondering what’s Marginal Way? If you don’t know its a D.I.Y skate park built in Seattle, Washington. Instead of getting frustrated with their scene, Seattle loc’s got motivated and took shit into their own hands and started building a place they could call their own. Like the bridge parks before hand, they scoped an area that wasn’t going to be missed by anyone but tweekers and bums and took the zone over. What started in October 2004 has came a long way. When I first went here In 04′ I thought great another shitty too much flat ground 1/4 pipe park. Then as a few years have passed the place has started to take shape. But that’s probably because renegade parks aren’t built over night, ya know?

I cant emphasize enough on how  important  it is to stretch properly.  Also, make sure you hydrate yourself before, during and after any vigorous activities.
