Flagler Beach at Golden Hour

Golden Hour is the roughly hour of day where natural light looks absolutely amazing in photographs. So when the Energy Skate Shop boys hit me up for a session at the Flagler Beach park 20 or 30 minutes north of Daytona at around 4:30 I presumed I'd be able to catch the golden hour. It went pretty well, and I'll put up some pretty ill sequences as soon as I figure out how to make those GIF things or whatever they're called.

Yep, it's a pre-fab park. That means a lot of unearthly slick "ledges". They're fun after some mild adjustments though.

Scraping a tail means catching a slam.

Or if you're Carlos you take a botched manual and make it fun.

Eval Alswede had it pretty well figured out. After we were done skating he said "Steve, you're pretty urban."
Thanks, Evan.

We set this up. This kid decided it was too much last second.

See what I mean about Golden Hour? Straight natural light, son!

Beautiful. I saw this and couldn't help but think that people back in Tampa and the rest of Florida's west coast were about to enjoy one ill sunset.

Photobucket
No one wanted to hit this rail to go with my awesome angle. Suckers.

Artsy? Sorry part of the photo is cut off. These templates are killing me!

The photo with the serious face had a Razor Scooter kid cutting through the background.

Holy crap, Bud Price.

Jamie went for a lipslide. This photo shows how ridiculously tight his pants are. I can see your calf muscles, homie.

Photobucket
Rollerbladers were running rampant.

Bud loves that leather jacket.

Blake Carpenter asked everyone to play a game of SKATE. He pretty much put a hurting on everyone. Just wait 'til he discovers weed and beer and the playing field is gonna be a hell of a lot more level.

Photobucket
Evan put up a good fight.

Photobucket
A cracked board kid of ended the game.

Yes, a girl seriously drove this thing to the park. Yes, those are zebra skin seats.
