Photo Overflow

This is part two of random photo extras from Issue #104's Mexico story.
Erik Garza clicks a turndown at one of the most random sketchy places we rode. It's an abandoned bowl some skaters hand-built a few years prior, in the most backwoods town you've ever been to. Check out the magazine article for a more detailed description, and Erik busting another move over this hip.
There was a contest at a local skatepark, and this girl wanted everyone to sign her pants.
We came across this bike shop in downtown Guadalajara that had tons of vintage items, like a pristine VHS copy of Headfirst, and a bike with these 96 spoke wheels. Take that, you weight conscious pansies!
A grimy hole-in-the-wall Asian restaurant in the middle of rural Mexico was the last place I'd expect to see a sushi roll of sorts named after the city I live in.
Mexico might have the most abundant BMX bootlegging operation in the world. You name the product; a counterfeit version can be found somewhere within Mexico's borders, even designs the company doesn't even make, like this Animal shirt.
