Wasn't that the Skatopia Half

Wasn't that the Skatopia Half Pipe before they put up the Skatopia sign up ? I don/t remember Upland having a half pipe. What park was first Skatopia or Upland? Cool video.

Yes, that was Skatopia's half

Yes, that was Skatopia's half pipe and clover bowl. And then at the end there is some footage of the original little Skatopia pool.

Very cool stuff!

I also liked seeing the big bowl at upland. I remember when that was the gnarliest thing at any park!
