SPoT Spot Check
March 6, 2004The Texas Ditch Words by Rob Meronek, Photos by Rob Meronek and Brian Schaefer Schaefer and I hit up the pretty well known Texas Ditch on our way back from San Francisco to Tampa for Tampa Pro 2004. It's right off of Exit 400 on Interstate 10 that cuts through Texas. If you ever find yourself driving across the country, you'll have a pretty fun time there. It looked like it hadn't been skated in a while when we got there, which isn't surprising since it's in the middle of nowhere. The little bit of dirt and rocks were easily swept away with a little shoe brooming. As you can see by the photos, it's a pretty perfect hip. The surface is great, too. Leading up to it is a nice large drop in so you don't have to worry about speed. We’re not throwing down switch tre’s over that thing, but we’re having just as much fun. Oh and speaking of switch, it's double sided. A nice equal opportunity stance obstacle. Check out a few photos to your right. Rob |
