A Day at Compton Skate Park

Skateboarding would be boring if you didn't make memories with the people you meet. With that being said, meeting people and enjoying yourself is a huge part of skateboarding. While filming some of these tricks, it can be pretty stressful, but you learn as you keep skating, that you can't take it too seriously. If you do, you take away the biggest part of why people skateboard, to just enjoy yourself. With the sun beaming down on us we managed to skate and finish up Charley and Eric's 10 questions for the TeamBK site. The day began at around noon, and ended around 5, which goes to show that some serious work was put in. I wasn't expecting to be there for that long because I thought they were just gonna film a few tricks and be done, but I soon figured out that they really wanted to film good tricks for the video. Shoutout to Erik "Dirty" Sandoval who filmed all day and made it all happen. You will definitely be seeing much more from Charley Ford, Eric Jones, Jamal Mcdade and the rest of the Compton locals! Be sure to check out the 10 questions video coming out soon on http://teambkinc.com/.
