Regardless of my age, what predicament I’m in or were I am in the world, I remain a skateboarder at heart. I always find myself scanning my surroundings for uniquely skate-able structures whether permitted to be ridden or not. I can’t help it, it’s in my nature. While Joburg hasn’t offered the bounty of obstacles I had hoped it would so far, I have found some neat places to roll. More photos to come I’m sure, as I’m always on the lookout.
