Spots come and go. Some stay for decades and make careers. Some last for a day or two, hell sometimes barely long enough to land a trick. Think parked vans with grindable bumpers, construction areas and other aspects of living and growing cities. The search for the new and never hit will always be a part of what we do but there are very few of us who will pass up a good curb session.
Every time I stop by the Solitary Arts office I look at this mini radio, only recently did I take the camera out of my pocket to shoot it. Yong-Ki always has great stuff to look at, he is a collector at heart.
Habitat, Thunder and Atlas shop rider Mark Suciu spent some time back east and here's a little proof.

Lakai recently released the Judo and in their color spectrum is the above all white canvas/suede beauty. Two things that normally don't work for skate shows; whiteness and canvas. Feeling a little nostalgia for the mid-90s, these are now filling my head of memories of Salman Agah and his switch mastery. They may not last more than a couple weeks of skating but the feel they give will make each session better.
The brain trust that is Roger Skateboards turned long time AM, Nate Broussard pro! Congrats to Nate!
Hot summer day in Northern California (100F) means lurking in the shade and making brief trips into the heat to skate.
