So after lighting up and getting off to a great start on the trip Friday night the crew and I awoke to a 42 degree day, with windchill pushing the temperature down into the mid 30's. First thing we could come up with was a spot that might limit the amount of wind and actually give us a chance to warm up a little bit. The last time I was at this set of stairs waxing them and breaking them in was just an idea. You will notice a little bank to bank on either side of the set making the get in and get out have that little something extra. The kids in Fort Worth look like they have been working on this spot for a while as no wax was needed to get the clips that we shot as we fought off mother nature. If you have seen Lakai's Fully Flared you will notice that these are the stairs that Guy Mariano did the noseblunt slide nollie varial heel out on. Sounds ridiculous, just read that last statement. If you don't skateboard it looks like a foreign language, that's Guy for you, always expressing himself in a language all his own. Hence the come back part after a 10 year hiatus from professional skateboarding.
