Valentine's Day Massacre 2010
Thanks to the Ergo team for skating the night before the Contest in a session with all the locals. This kid asked me all kinds of questions and wanted to shoot a photo. After I figured out he could barely push, I just asked him to do an ollie. He was beaming before even got back on the ground - so awesome. I tried to get his name but I couldn't understand him. Listen to him say it. It's nice to see real outgoing super young kids. I wish I was like that. It might be a little too late to change as a grown man, though. Don't be shy, kids. Photo geek note: The flickering in the sequence of photos where it appears the white balance is changing only happens at night in the Skatepark lighting and cannot be seen by the human eye. In the daytime, there's enough sunlight to wash out the flickering of the lights and you don't get this weird flicker.
