Description I DIDN'T TAKE THIS PICTURE.
This is a picture of my dad skating back in the 70's when he was a teenager. I think this picture was taken down at halswell (which is just outside christchurch, New Zealand). Back in his day my dad was a pro. He won the south island slalom competion once, I also think he used to demo stuff for peaple too...
please comment.

Shoot! That is brilliant! The use of only black and white silhouettes looks incredible.

You're dad was a pro skater? That's cool!
