Been a while, a recap (Part 3)

In March:
I was able to get down to the Skatepark of Tampa. This is the first time I have been there since the late 1990s. They celebrated 20 years this year, so it was cool to see all the changes and expansions since last time over ten years ago.
This is new since my last visit. It's in an adjacent warehouse and is for beginners. I think it was added around 2000.

Got to sport my new board and shirt.

The Masonite here is super smooth.

Classic guitar-board pose.

Jamie always takes good pics.

The park set up for the upcoming Tampa Pro a couple of weeks later.

A nice throwback to the Souls of Mischief song/album. Apparently, Lance Mountain painted some of these "doughboys."

Picked up a doughboy shirt/hat. Happy 20 Spot!

The infamous moat, used for moat races and wrecked cars.

Had to make the trip complete by visiting the bar/grill run by the Spot. The food was amazing.

The Tampa Pro was just a week or two after my visit.
