huge texas fullpipe.

[227angrydonkeys]

I got into Urb ex through looking for old swimming pools and fullpipes to skate and I just read this article written by Salba about the search for a huge lost pipe in the desert somewhere and the subsequent mission to find it and skate it. I figured i'd post it up.

Hell of a story but just a pity there were no photo's of the pipe to go with it, least I know where the half pipe name come from.

I'm not into skating at all but I have to admit that was an interesting story. I can relate to the part where they got busted for trespassing as I guess it's happened to many of us on here in one way or another. Goes with the territory.

Snap! I stopped skateboarding around 4 years ago. I wanted to skate any kind of fullpipe I could find.

Theres a skateable outfall near bolton apparently, you just dam it with a bag of cat litter and you can skate it a while. Also got my eye on a couple of things at pyestock.........
Theres an abandoned school near swanage with a great skateable pool outside where We had an amazing session about 3 years ago too.
