On the furthest outreaches of the East Coast, there lives a humanoid that knows no limits. One day, an idea was hatched, deep within his cerebral cortex and, after\u00a0many years of\u00a0hard work and dedication, his vision for a wooden backyard mega-bowl\u00a0with yards and yards of grindable coping was complete. This unique individual goes by a number of tags… some call him Science, while others prefer, Dave. I don’t think he cares what you call him. He just\u00a0wants to build and skate and collect toys. His\u00a0creation is called\u00a0the Spruce Goose or the “eighth wonder of the world.” The grand opening party invite went something like this… “Expect nothing. Leave with something whacky. Free Skatelite burns. There are no directions, but the right ones. BYOB. Bring a grillable. Bring a tent. Bring your board. Bring your cajones…” That about sums it up.\u00a0Here are a collection of photos and videos from a great group of photographers and filmers that contributed\u00a0their work to memorialize this unveiling of radness. Big thanks\u00a0to Mark Nichols, Quinn Knight, Evan Foster, Rob Nelson and Josh McFadden. 100% Respect to master builder & destroyer, Dave Maxwell.<\/p>\n
