A day to Toronto. For fun.
This is what it looks like right beside the Ashbridges Skatepark.
The original idea on Saturday was to go to Montreal and skate South-Parc due to the rain, but the forecast said Toronto was gonna be shitty, but dry, so we took our chances. After entering Toronto we got into countless arguments regarding where we were gonna skate, where we were gonna eat, when we should leave and all that. The joys of traveling with adolescents! The consensus ending up being the new plaza at Ashbridges park. Am I becoming an old skateboarder? I felt like I needed more adults around me on this trip. I was definitely sore as a bastard by the end of the day and It's Tuesday night and I'm still sore. Jumping down stuff is like performing squats all day long. Overall though it was a good session and refreshing to skate another city. Hope you enjoy the photos. I'd rather skate a park than shoot photos of dudes skating it. Save the skate photos for the street!
This is Ashbridges, the new park in Toronto. Or is it a plaza? Skateparks are weird these days. The weather was pretty shitty but we still had a butt load of fun. Click to view full screen and scroll to check it out. Some really good obstacles aren't in view but you get the picture.
This was the crew (from left to right) Cameron (thanks for getting your mom to let us use the van) Caleb, Richard J. and J.D.
Richard was our driver, he loves flip. So we watched Sorry on our way up.
Who goes on a trip without stopping at McDonalds?

First off, let me say that, maybe you should "stretch" before any stunt you do, because it seems like you're a little out of shape. (Try swimming lanes or biking to help your legs, you'll thank me later [laughs])
Second, I love the first image. You got a great shot here. The image is a little blurry on the right side, but I don't expect more than what's there. Still the outcome is beautiful. You know how to handle your renderings well.
Third, Mcdonalds does not have real food/good burgers. Try Harveys, they have some good burgers and bigger fries...Am I the only one who thinks Mcdonalds is just good for their chicken burgers?
Anyways, amazing emotion and action going on with your subjects!
LOVE IT, just take me with you next time so I can visit my friend [laughs] Joking.
