I did my first frontside shallow-end grind at this pool. I slashed the Jet Inn Motel pool shallow end back in 2005, but that was a modified shallow, so it doesn’t count. I was stoked on this one!

Same day as my last post. 2020.
This pool. Pandemic or not, the neighbors always called the cops or came in bitching about it. Straight-up lame. We still got some runs in, though.

A pool from six years ago on this day. Those were hard days to skate backyard pools, when everyone was hiding at home, on edge, and ready to narc on anyone breaking the new rules of “Stay at Home” in The 818
San Juan Capistrano Skatepark bowl. I’m pretty sure the shape of this one was based on a swimming pool they had here in the ’80s that was heavily skated. It would be even more fun if they had added the pool obstacles from the original. My first time here, and I really enjoyed the bowl and the whole skatepark.

Checking out the new San Juan Capistrano Skatepark skatepark today. Super fun bowl. The whole park is smooth and fun.

Clip 2: Natas Kaupas skateboarding the DTLA Volcanos in 1989 — probably the first time I ever saw someone skate this spot.
Clip 3: Me getting some things done! First skated this spot in 1999, and still coming back for more.

Yabbo for the Skateboarding Hall of Fame.
Lives in a bomb shelter with a mini ramp inside. Skates backyard pools like there’s no tomorrow. Slams so hard he gets the pool shut down and the whole crew in trouble with the law.
No sponsors. No video part. No filter.
Just 100% skateboarder.
Give it to Yabbo. NOW.
