What if cigarette ads told the Truth?
Clockwise from top: Oblivious to the sublime
power and precision of Neal Mims' monster 360° flip,
a chrome-domed fruit-booter ponders dropping in.
Clueless, aren't they? City-sanctioned shithole. Mr. Mims
snaps a head-high melon in what's more of a dry heat.

Where: Laguna Niguel-south
of OC, north of San Diego.
What: Free, public dish with
banks, hips, ledges, bowled
Laguna Niguel Skatepar
Laguna Niguel, C
sections, a pyramid, flatbar, and a
mellow volcano.
Good: Some good hips, possible speed lines.
Only have to wear a helmet.
Bad: Slick, recessed coping, pyramid really mellow, ledges are too low
and kinked, really, really crowded, and exceedingly warm in summer.
Locals: Partain-esque tattooed beach victims, Longboard Larrys, surf
buddies, and the wobblingly-dangerous rollerblading and Razor-riding
offspring of Ford Excursion-driving, past-their-prime trophy beach wives.
Overall: A solid 2.
Directions: From the 5, take Alicia Rd. west until you see the park on
the right. -Michael Burnett
