We discovered this drainage ditch when we saw a too-small-to-skate ditch and wondered about the small pipe that went under the freeway and where it led to.

Maybe we'd find a bigger ditch?

So we skated under the freeway underpass and walked up the freeway entrance and there it was!

An amazing drainage ditch that seemed like it was made for skateboarding.

This ditch was a traditional wedge shape, but with actual bowled transitions at the bottom.

It was an amazing ditch and we got to skate it for many, many years and learned a lot of maneuvers in it.

Hope you dig the photos of the ditch we called The Superbowl.
