Vintage Mt. Baldy Pipeline
This is a cement tube under the Mt. Baldy Dam. In the 1970’s when this was taken this place was hard to get to and in without being busted. But get in we did… That is my brother Todd on the wall, a natural skate boarder from the start.
Vintage Mt. Baldy Pipeline belongs to the following groups:

I am very happy that you have a masterpiece of your brother in action, I think it is great that you and he have a wonderful record of his youth, not many people have a poster of themselves you know. I hope he has one hanging up in his house.

He does, I made sure of it…
