Sunday Skate Session Photos

A bunch of us met up last Sunday for a skate sesh at Wallenburg School, a.k.a “The Usual,” a.k.a. “Wallenturd,” a.k.a. “The Turd."  The weather was near perfect.  The posse consisted of me, Leland Ware, Ian Johnson, Chris Long, Brad Johnson, Jason Wussler, Matt Jones, Mecky Crues,Hidehiko Fujiwara and Lavar McBride.  Lavar just moved back to The City from Chicago.  Watching Lavar shred is always a treat.

All photos below are of Jason Wussler.  These were some warm up shots leading up to something a little craftier, which, unfortunately, I won’t be able to post as they are most likely being used for something else. 

Now if you’ve ever skated Wallenburg, then you know just how difficult these ledges are to skate.  Jason landed this bluntslide to fakie probably 15 out of the 20 times he tried it, no lie.

A buttery backside tailslide.  When executed properly, the back tail is probably my favorite looking ledge trick.

And here’s a couple of stills…

That’s all for now.  I plan to shoot some more skate photos this weekend, so be on the lookout for those sometime next week.  

Special thanks to my man Derek Poon for helping me with the GIFs and to Plug 1 at WhatImSeeing.com for the shooting tips. 

Happy Wednesday!
