Austin storm water management
Two photos of a spot that amazingly enough was not built for skateboarding. Storm water management done the right way, somewhere in Austin, Texas.
- Thanks to Brianna Vance for the photos.

I'm coding on a live site! Wheee! Please ignore any nonsense for the time being
This is none of your business
So has anybody laid down multiple sheets of plywood so that they could roll in to the entrance fast enough to ride over the exit hole? Shirley must have done it by now, I would think. Any photos of ol’ Shirls doing so, B?
I may or may not have.
In fact, if you had an 8′ quarter, with a bit of flat on one side cut diagonally, to set against the entrance, it looks like there is potential for a sick sick inverted grind across the top of the hole. Though not really, since the bit of inversion would turn you into the hole eventually, since it isn’t an arch. So, Shirley would never do THAT.
At any spot, one must ask oneself: WWSSD?
Where exactly in Austin is this? I’d love to hit it up sometime!
Tim go ask the Dream Destroyers… they know where it is.
reminds me more than a little bit of mcminnville
way gnarlier than mcminnie’s.
Nice. That’s Jesse Reed on the blunt.
I was at this session too.
That has got to be skater infiltration into civil engineering.
What ssk said. Would’ve been fun to hear the instructions from the supervisor of the workers who poured/shot the ‘crete: “Smooth out that bottom transition! Any kinks might create turbulence that will impede drainage!” Ha.
I know where this is – it’s down off Manchaca at William Cannon. Go check it out skaterats!
Where specifically off Manchaca and William Canon?
