SV with Jeremy and Ijay

On Friday evening, at Scotts Valley skatepark, we met with Jeremy and his almost 6 year old son Ijay. Jeremy can be often seen with Ijay, either at Santa Cruz or Scotts Valley.
Ijay and Benoit teamed up and had just a blast.
Since Ijay could drop in from the 8 1/2 copping from the big bow. Benoit wanted to try it out but He got kind of scared by the hight but Jeremy showed him how to drop in from the side of the bowl and before we knew it Benoit dropped in from the 8 1/2 wall.

Scotts Valley July

On Sunday evening Benoit wanted to skateboard at Scotts Valley. We had a good time and before we left I shot some photos of SV locals. Both Grady and Kile were kind enough to skate the big bowl and try some crazy tricks.

Fun Spot with Paul

I met Paul at Fun Spot. He is from Santa Cruz but has some relatives in France at Carcassone and speaks French. Since the light was great I took few shots while He was skating the mini-ramp.
