Another one of my favorite Thomas photos.
It’s dark, mysterious and historic.
That was one of the first 4-track wakeskates Cassette made.
He just finished nose-sliding the hell out of that dock.
This was on Clear Lake back when no other wake dudes lived on it.
Thomas moved into the ghetto, and the wakers followed him in.

This has always been one of my favorite photos to look at, when I was first starting out my photography. The black and white contrast really brings out the emotions in wakeskating. Awesome shot
