SOTW 6-8-09: Barefoot night sessions
John Drummond sent in this beat up scan:
I’ve been meaning to send you this picture. I thought you might consider it a “Shot of the week”. It’s a little grainy and scratched. It’s my buddy Chris Lowe in 1988 doing an Andrecht. This was kind of a common thing for him to do after a session. Take pads off, change clothes, and then mess around. Sometimes slides and stupid flat bottom stuff would turn into him busting a Madonna or an invert… barefoot, and in the dark.
A little grainy and scratched? What makes you say that? Location: Moraga Ramp (Garry Mcleod’s). Check out the Shot of the Week.

hell yeah bring on the scratch sessions
…I like the “change clothes” part for some reason…
Yeah, Chris Lowe pro! Bad Mo Fo!
A good Andrecht can make a fashion faux pas like clambdiggers look cool. Oh my God, is he riding a Concrete Jungle deck? Sooo 80′s!

Chris Lowe was then, and is now, the Coolest guy I know.
I had a similar ritual, but maybe Grover should describe it…
