Fakis outta the half pipe at Robert E. Lee
So a couple weeks back I went over to Robert E. Lee park with my boy Gary. Gary was gonna hit some dirt jumps and get photo’ed by some kid. I forget his name, but that kid was cool. All these pics are props to him.
The pic you see on the right is me. I know, weak. Gimme a break. I haven’t hit any gaps in over two years. I need to grow my balls back. What you see in that pic is me starting to grow ’em again.
It was dry on the street that day, but the trails didn’t dry out yet so it was wet, damp, and sloppy. And Gary was still jumping. He skid out a few times on the transitions and landed hard and squirrely once or twice. I think we got some great shots anyway. Hope you like ’em.
Nice to see you guys used those. Oh and thanks for letting us shoot you guys as it helped both of us out as photographers as well.
We will do it again soon, Ian. I’ve been speaking with TJ on Twitter about good Flash set ups…..
These look a lot like the DJ’s we just finished rebuilding (had to go bigger!) in Atlanta. Surrounding areas even look the same!
That’s awesome, Robb. If you’ve never been to MD, I’d love to show you the trails around here. Patapsco State Park is arguably a destination in and of itself. Would make for a great trail review!
