The Skateboarder


The Place du Cap in Menton is a good place to skateboard - especially on chilly winter days when there aren't so many people about.

La Place du Cap à Menton est un bon endroit pour faire du skateboard - surtout au cours des jours froids de l'hiver quand il y a peu de gens dehors.

  7. He must be a more advanced boarder than most, as his board has only 2 wheels instead of the usual 4. Way to go kid!

  8. This type of skateboard (2 wheels with pivoting twin deck) is called a ripstik and are all the rage in Australia.

  9. Glad to see kids having fun outdoors. Never seen a 2 wheeled skateboard.

  10. Cool dude! The "ripstik" appears to take even more skill than a more traditional board ... which is so far beyond me I can only stand in awe!
