When Micah and I got to Woodward East this week we were stunned to see this incredible new park being built. It made me think about all the athletic canvases out there: The baseball field, the football field, the basketball court... even though there are differences, they are more alike than different. Skateparks on the other hand can be uniquely different in structure. This new plaza is a work of art that also has a functional purpose. This plaza rivals looks like it could be set outside a famous national museum. Watching the guys labor through the building process was not too different than watching a mother give birth to a beautiful baby. Those guys worked from 6am to 11pm in heat and rain. I got to hang w/the work crew some. They were all real cool, especially the project manager Bill. Most if not all were skaters. They seemed to really love their work. Their company is
California Skateparks and they have some awesome parks built.

Micah got some vert instruction from Mike Frazier. There was a mystery skater who came in today -- TONY HAWK! Micah got to skate Cloud 9 with Tony, Kevin Staab, Mike Frazier and Kevin Johnson.
On a different note, keep
Brewce Martin founder and owner of Skatopia in your prayers. Last I heard he was airlifted to Huntington, WV for his severe head injuries.
