TRAILER FOR ISSUE No. 3 ALBUQUERQUE

PUBLISHED February 5, 2013

From first glance, Albuquerque might appear as a small, mountainside town in the center of New Mexico. But spend a week with the skate scene and you will soon realize that this place is anything but small when it comes to spots and the tricks that go down on them. We spent six weeks in ABQ, skating with the best every day and stacking clips as high as the Sandia mountains themself. Issue No. 3 Albuquerque is out now on SKATERSATLAS.COM with two full video parts, a city montage, a skaters cookbook, a featured artist, a DIY section and a day in the life that turns out to be a night in the life. Stay tuned to SKATERSATLAS.COM for more upcoming features!

ALBUQUERQUE SKATE MONTAGE

PUBLISHED February 5, 2013

Albuquerque sits at the foot of the Sandia mountains. This means lots of hills, lots of stairs and obviously lots of spots. But what it also has is a drainage ditch system that runs down the mountain.
