Thanks Giving Day

Thanks Giving Day

I shot this on Thanks Giving Day on the roof of a church. It was about forty feet to the roof. as I reached the roof the ladder collapsed and I rode the ladder all the was to the ground and smashed my ankle, it was sore for a month. My friend and I got to shout for maybe 10min. before the cops showed up. I thought they were going to arrest us for sure. But they let us go and I got 2 sweet shots and that is why I call this shot Thanks Giving Day.

    why, oh why, would there be such a perfect mini on the roof of a church?

  • Martin Kohl replied

    God must be a shredder, The stuck-o was so gnarly I have not tried going back because it was near imposable to skate.
