Vert Skateboarding Flashback – Houston 1991
December 23rd, 2009 / 1 Comment » / by Jonathan Young
This one is for all of you vert skaters out there – looking back in the past is always a fun thing to do, especially with skateboading as it has changed, been redefined and has attracted new skaters to ride the ever growing vert ramps besides the old school skaters. Here’s a bunch of videos from back in 1991 at the SUAS in Houston, Texas with Lance Mountain, Mike Frazier, Bod Boyle, Darren Menditto, Omar Hassan, Dave Le Roux, Remy Stratton, Tony Hawk, Bod Boyle, Darren Menditto, Omar Hassan, Remy Stratton, Buster Halterman, Chris Gentry, Eric Nash, Chris Miller and many others ripping it back when some of you guys out there didn’t even know how to spell skateboard 
I just love watching these runs which aren’t packed with flip tricks and 540s (nothing against those tricks, but I just like a good mix!). There are three more videos after the jump, don’t miss them!

As it was most likely quite easy to see in advance that I wasn’t going to pull through an entire month with one Pic Of The Day, this “experiment” has also been good for me to see how I am going to continue pushing the skateboard photography section in 2010. I’m looking forward to the many mails with new pictures, skaters and impressions from around the world. Keep sending them in!
Today’s Pic Of The Day comes from Kristijan Smok and it was taken in Zagreb, Croatia on a ferry (nice idea!) by one Michel Kubaček doing a 50-50 grind. The shot was made with a Canon 400d with a Sigma 10mm at F2.8 and a flash from the left side.

Black and white photography is something I really dig and today’s Pic Of The Day is one of several pictures in Nicolas Schneider’s Flickr account which grabbed my attention with the photo set-ups and the beautiful contrasts.
This shot features Misha Poponin in the middle of a frontside flip under an incredible backdrop of a glass ceiling. Where is this? Any ideas?
