With day two of practice in full swing, skaters fully unleashed on the street course giving a beat down on the fresh concert. This year’s street course design is similar to last year’s triangular shape but includes major improvements. For example, this time around California Skateparks beefed up the quarter pipes/hips at the bottom of the course for speed and flow, a path down the middle with that can lead to creative gaps, and multiple hubbas, rails, and ledges to choice from. Overall, watching day 2 of practice left us impressed and wanting more.
