Thrifty's

The raddest thing about Trifty's is the transitions and the fact that the ditch itself not only flows downwards but that it has a triple dip. Unfortunatly, only 2 are still intact.









The first dip is at the "chute" at the end of the ditch. Quick thinking and balance are key here but the rides are long and tall. You can roll straight ahead or roll up a transition.
It's ill to roll up a 3 foot transition and then roll down into a 5 foot one only to get to the other side and grind.

The second dip is a doozy it could be fun but there is so much trash and dirt. If your charged down it, you would just crash into a mound of dirt and trash. (needs to be picked up)
There is a lot of skateablity to be had if only the rim dirt and bushes were cut back and dirt taken out.

Arriving to that lower level there's more transition and a couple zones to drop in on. This is were most of the sessions happen, but there is so much more to this spot with a little imagination and a tuff crew to manage it.









The third transition is in rubble.
Legend has it that it buckled during El Nino and bottomed out.
You see some blocks of yore and structure dismantled and long gone but
beyond that there is even more transition!


The whole spot needs to have a major clean-up to bring it back to the glory it once was. I have a friend that skated it in the 70s. I will ask him for a story to include here.
