Bruce

Continuing on the 'Locals' theme I bring you (drum roll).... Bruce Pouncey! Today is Bruce's birthday. He is 17 years old. Yeah, Bruce.

Here's a bit of background info on Bruce. Everything he says starts with 'Yeah'. For example, 'Yeah Bees', 'Yeah Lee', 'Yeah Damo'. Although some times , for variety, he'll say 'John, Man' but that only happens when I ask him to do something and it is whined rather than spoken but that's Bruce, a guy full of love and meaningful remarks.



When it comes to skating, Bruce kicks ass. The photos show him doing this; backside 50:50 down the square coping ledge, very tweeked b/s 180 over a yellow cone, and b/s tailslide on the rail.
Bruce, like a lot of young skaters, will try and try and try until he lands his trick but he also tries and tries and tries to get you to land your trick, too. A true local hero.


Thanks for the photos, Bruce.
