There were many skateboarding excursions to be had this spring break, some more policed than others, but all of them enjoyable. The crew and i hit up several street skating spots in the Twin Cities area, with some unfortunate police involvement at some spots.
The bottom picture shows my friend Neil crouching on the rooftop of a famous spot called, "The Red Roofs." It's in many skate videos and the cop who busted us there knew this as well. The officer put our filmer (Andy Proulx) in the back of his squad and took our I.D.'s; threatening that he would tag us all for trespassing. After a few wasted moments the officer decided we were "not worth his time" and he let us all go. Gee, thanks Officer.
Even though we were booted out of several spots, there was plenty of good skating time. (Pictured above at the Capital.) Thanks goes out to everyone for several well needed skating sessions.
