Garrett Reynolds turned 18 just two weeks before the trip out to Portland. He's from Toms River, New Jersey, and has been killing it for years. Damn kids.
• Nosedive 360. I was standing too far away. That's RIDE photog Keith Mulligan in the correct location. Damn professionals.
• 360 tuck no-hander. Garrett has a boatload of 360 variations, and he broke a lot of them out on campus. No need to dip into the really crazy stuff for a crowd that wouldn't be any more impressed anyway. Incidentally, I moved closer, but he was just too high for the fisheye.
• Truckdriver to fakie. So fresh and so clean.
• Tailwhip air on the street spine. I really wish I clicked the shutter a half-second later. Everything else was spot-on—the sky, the ramp, the angle. Oh well, practice makes perfect, right?
• Autographs. All three of the dudes got rushed, but I think Garrett signed the most. At one point I turned around and saw him signing some kid's cell phone. I had to ask. "Is that the first time you've signed a cell phone?" He looked at me a little funny. "No." Sheesh.
Lakejumping flicks coming soon. Promise.
