Napa Part 2: Concrete Mini

Demarcus brought us to this sweet backyard hand-poured concrete mini. I've never seen anything like it. They just finished it with the pool coping. Sesh-on!

Aaron up first with this crazy salada.

Next he busts out a fat front feeble.

Demarcus attached this think. He had so many crazy bonelesses I lost track.

Here's a sweet 50-50 chunky grind new pool coping.

Last up was Stephen with the front blunt.

For the earlier bank session, see Part 1.

Vallejo

I took a trip out to Vallejo to meet up with Demarcus and Dan. We hit a few local parks and a sketchy Vallejo street spot. Vallejo is pretty much sketchy all the way round. Last year, someone set fire to the courthouse. Vallejo has a population of 115,000 and a total of four, count 'em four, police squad cars.



We started out at X-Park in neighboring Benecia. Demarcus started out with a Layback.



Next up, Melon.



Check out the fro comb.



Smithers.



Shmoke and a Pancake?



One more look at that layback stylee rock and roll.



After some refueling at the local DQ we headed over to the Vellejo skatepark. Super sketchy dudes hanging out in the parking lot, nobody skating.

Directions.



Demarcus.



Backside Air.



Miller Flip.
