Jesse Lindloff and Salba Show Us What a Real Day of Pool Skating Looks Like

Although the first session was a success, the squad gets denied from a few other pools before hitting another hidden gem that needed some draining. It's all a part of the process and the effort paid off. Clips were secured. Coping was slashed. Check it off the list!  

As Jesse mentioned, hitting two pools in one day is a proper win for most backyard bargers—but they weren’t done yet. They struck gold on a return mission to a pool Jesse had unfinished business with. Armed with a rub brick and a hit of lacquer, he rolled back in and finally copped the clip that got away years ago. Boom.

At the end of the day, skateboarding is skateboarding. I totally understand it doesn't need to be categorized into this and that, but in an era where ultra-polished skate videos, roller-coaster handrails, technical wizards and constant progression are the norm, there's something refreshing about some classic backyard barging and pool skating. It sure ain't easy, either! 

Thanks to Jesse and Salba for letting us tag along, and for showing us what a real day of pool skating looks like. 

No gimmicks, no nonsense—just pure, unfiltered backyard ripping. And for someone who has always admired pool skating (but has never mastered it), my mind is always blown when I see dudes like this make it all look so effortless.
