A Random Trip to Sarasota Skatepark
Words, Photos, and Captions by Rob Meronek and John Paul GrebeSince the power went out here due to the hurricane of the week, SPoT employees John Paul Grebe, Jason Fintel, and I decided to go to Sarasota Skatepark for the rest of the afternoon. It's an hour from Tampa. We also met and skated with Kenny Liszewski, winner of the 12 and Under Division at the School's Out Jam back in June. Check out a few photos below. Here's info on the Sarasota Skatepark:

Kenny Liszewski backside flips the pyramid |
Boardslide guy John Paul Grebe doing a boardslide of course |
Jason Fintel frontside tail slides the buttery marble bench on top of the pyramid |
It's ok to hate on yourself just like it's ok for black dudes to make racist black jokes, women to be sexist, Asians to make racist Asian jokes, etc, right? This is me, Rob Meronek, on one mob ass kickflip - feet two inches apart, board 10 miles away from feet, pop about 2 millimeters off the ground - all complete with the nanu nanu steez |
Jason Fintel front boards to fakie while avoiding that leaning tower of palm tree getting BGP's |
This one's going straight to the SPoT Photo Chop Shop. This is Jason Fintel doing a nose slide and a 50-50 at the same time while Kenny Liszewski is in between him doing a backside 5-0 |
