Neat shots but this looks like a candidate for the Darwin Awards to me.:rolleyes:

Oh, I thought I saw your name on the list, too. Please keep your pessimism out of my thread, thanks! Hopefully you had fun, like us, when you were in your youth.

Some snapshots from Carslbad High School today...
This is the entrance. Oddly enough, the gates were wide open, and some kids were just leaving after skating it.

The gap. Uphill launch, uphill landing. The set is an 11 and honestly looks more intimidating than the gap, the gap really isnt that big but the landing is gnarly. The car is not ours, I guess the school is going through some remodeling or some ****.

Jberg...where are the actual skate shots? You look like you're about 15 in that picture.

On your original shots at the bank, I like the second one (the silhouette) the best. For some reason though, that doesn't look like the BIG one out there. At the Carlsbad gap, did you go there just to look at it? There are tons of other infamous places around there too that I hope you made it too, even if it was just to check them out. Man, it's been so long that I forget the names of most of them, but I remember right where they're all at.

It isn't the BIG one, We visited the other BIG one that's right by the RV storage place. The one that Corey Duffel tre'd into is like 100 yards away from the one we shot at but that one is MAD sketchy. But yeah we just went to the cbad gap to check it out. Had my friend not screwed up his foot last week he prob would've skated it. My knees are too blown to skate the big stuff.

I'm glad I'm not the only one thinking that way. Makes me wish I never put down my board.
