Thought so. It was a death pit, but for one morning, it was our death pit.

Rich has more pics over at EPM

OK, maybe not that recent, back cover of Juice #63, the one with Lance on the cover. It’s Juice magazine, so with their fluctuating publication schedule, that advert could have been slated to come out last year…

Rather, maybe he was fucking WITH ME, and not in the middle of getting laid while also explaining about Pink Motel. Anyways what mag did you see the ad in Kilwag?

Haven't seen the ad, nor have I ever been back but Ben said they were re-modeling/finishing that pool and it would be permantly outlawed thereafter.

I honestly never knew that much about it until my introduction. Or maybe he was fucking when he explained the importance of the session. Or maybe I was drunk and something was lost in translation. But, rad. Lance rips that pool.

The Pink Motel just showed up in a Nike SB ad with Lance Mountain.

Thats gnarly, I wouldnt have started at the waterfall. I wont deny, it looks sketchy. Definitely wasnt saying I could've cleared the light, and i agree, seems alot of room to push. Getting the speed without pumping/carving your way to the deep might have been impossible in that pool. Kudos.

Pink motel was a blast-went there w/Schroeder shortly before it bit the dust. Mind you I grew up in L.A and that was my first and last time there. Before that I only had knowledge of it via bones brigade videos.

MC, what do ya think of the kidney pool at Chino park(for a park pool)?

Never did skate the pink, wish I had.

It would have been fun to try to do more in that deep pit. There was a big waterfall and plenty of room to push - timing was critical though. I started from the top of the waterfall for my first several runs, it looked unskateable. Given another session, we probably could have gotten over the light if not hit the lip. Gnarly quick transition on the way down though. Triangular loveseats in two corners you can't see had possibilities.

I would have loved to take a run, maybe I’ll chalk it up to envy as I’ll never get the chance. Mark- ever hit the Pink Motel before it’s RIP? Even for sub-amatuer random(who favors street), it was epic to ride it.
