Buena Vista is Dead?

Well, probably by now. It's likely been blown out and disrespected to the point the property owner has loaded up the stoke filled hole with dirt once again. At least it hasn't been jackhammered like so many legendary pools. It has the potential to be resurrected again. And whenever that lotto retirement plan comes through, I suspect my west coast abode will be near Santa Cruz. We even met the man behind the art, Jimbo Phillips. (If you don't know the Phillips family connection to skating, well, then I thank you for your pedestrian patronage! Now go google 'em.)

Here's a just a sample of the sessions I witnessed. First up is Kooks and some Locals.



Here's the Wankers on Holiday version (intro sequence is the same). These guys were hilarious. We met them at Lake Cunningham, and skated with them at Santa Cruz too. I hope to skate with them in England some day.
