  We were out all day with friends and we were losing light fast. But I knew when we rolled by this spot we weren’t leaving without another clip. Jereme was sizing it up on sight. One of the poles from the scaffolding was super close to the dumpster, so it was a tight squeeze. The roll up was a bunch of 2”x4”s laid side by side, perpendicular to the direction he was skating. Every time Jereme rolled up to it the planks would rock up and down as he rode over, sometimes trapping his wheels in the gaps. Setting my Vivitar on the 2”x4”s for a rim light was probably not the best idea, since it kept getting bounced around, but that’s where it needed to be, so it stayed. I stuck my 120j in the dumpster to light him from below, and another 120j on a stand, camera front and right. While rolling up to it a few times, a security guard came out of the building and we had to act like we were just passing through. He gave us a long look and walked back inside. Jereme threw it up a few times just to feel it out. A few more tries later and Jereme got this 50.

  I was at work on the westside of the city and got a phone call from Jayme Lemperle who was nearby with Leo Gutman. Jayme told me that he came across this spot that wasn’t too far from work and wanted to get a photo there. Luckily I was getting off of work soon and had my gear and board with me. I met them outside a little while later and skated the direction of the spot. On our way over Jayme was explaining to me that the spot was at a construction site and the workers said that Jayme and Leo could come back later on in the day and skate it with no hassle. We arrived, moved the barriers out of the way, set a piece of shit plywood down, and tested out the runup. Meanwhile one of the construction workers came out and said hello, and told us we could use whatever we wanted in the site. One time only spots are the best. This is Leo Gutman with a front 180.
