This shot of Derek Garland out at Potters spot was a really cool day, even though the temperature was in the mid-90s! Todd had invited me out, prepped the course, made sure there was shade, and everyone came out to ride… Todd, Garland, Twitch,  Taka, Scummy, and Yankee (gnarly Japanese rider)!

It was an awesome day watching all the guys practice for both X-Games and the Mayhem tour! To see more rad and old-school shots make sure to give me a follow, @ackerman81
