Backyard bowl?

kahuna bowl 1

There is a Bay Area arts website called Fecal Face that I read regularly. A lot of the names you see at those skateboard art shows show up on the Fecal.

This bowl showed up there recently. Sounds like it’s in Oakland. Anybody know what the story is here? Is it a DIY skate project or is it a fishpond? One more photo after the jump.

    thanks Dan, you beat me to it… Sounds like this is a rental property. Looks pretty fun, for sure.

    reminds me of this (also on rental property):

    What a small world. That is in my cousin Narankars back yard. A skater who used to live there DIY’d it. I haven’t seen it in person but I hear it is sketchy. Looks fun.
