Needs more closeups of Pros with better composition. The 'SO RAPHA BRO' was more in reference to the grainy, large format, black and white photo. The above photo doesn't follow Nike's photography format and therefore is not SO NIKE BRO.

I started googling and came across this...

From the comments:
Skateboarders created the term "half pipe" when they made smaller scale structures modeled after such pipes or "full pipes". Skateboarding in mammoth water pipes such as this damn outlet or the Central Arizona Project pipes in Arizona, USA pre-date the use of the term half-pipe. This pipe has been featured in skateboarding magazines since the 70's.
I guess I need to go exploring, I've never seen one of these things in person.

Rode with the LBS this morning to check out the grand opening of a new park the city fixed up that used to be a hideout for homeless people. Of course I had to do a quick ride with my fixed gear on one of the MTB trails since it was so tempting. Haha. Definitely going to get something more practical so I can fully enjoy it. Plus it's down the street from my house which is great.

Rode on the Toronto Islands today. Beautiful. I also came in pretty much dead last in the island sprint that was held there today.
