Florida Skateboarding Life

Life Magazine covers skateboarding in Florida courtesy of photographer John Falls who went down to Florida to cover the Florida Bowl Rider’s Cup in Kona. And holy cow, that looks like some more artifacts from Thrasherland-style parks in those photos. It’s at this point that I’d like to remind Rick that I still know exactly where your Thrasherland slides are, you know, the ones you loaned me 5 years ago…

– Thanks to Seth Levy for the tip.

    Hilers compound was strictly off-limits to camera / footage for years.

    1. I thought you said Hitler’s compound.

  3. …and it’s kind of cool that Life is featuring quality pics of quality skaters (and with accurate captions? Whoa.). This set from Mr. Falls is good as well: http://www.life.com/gallery/48371/life-skates-in-dc#index/0
