I remember going to venice back in the day when the pit was still around and remember seeing some of the illest skaters of our time skating the gaps and murdering skate tricks with a grafitti layered background.

Now the 3.4 million dollar 16,000 square foot skate park dream is a reality in Venice Beach. Geri  Lewis and Jesse Martinez were on hand to cut the ribbon and release the thousands of skaters upon the park Saturday morning.

The park consists of Bowls, Steps and Ledges and is graffiti free for the moment but we will see how long that lasts. Dog Town was in the house With Original members and a sick party we had the chance of attending.
