This last Sunday we Finally got a nice warm day with difussed light for a belated photo shoot with Leon. Packed a few things and drove up to L.A. to meet up with Him in His new pad in Holywood only a few blocks away from the boulevard, Leon grabbed a couple of fresh Choncordia T’s and we were on our way to a very well known spot in East L.A. (The Gonz Banks). at least that is how I call it. We had a few takes in the banks alone with a nice backside kickflip from our friend Tom Contreras but it wasnt until Leon found a little bump right next to the spot when I finally got the money shot.
Right after, we drove down to a hidden spot right next to the Berrics. the same place were Torey P. landed the Backside 5/0 laser flip out..gnarly trick! specially because the ground is so messed up that makes it almost impossible to ollie with total control.
