Changing of the Guards

Step aside, Orchard is moving in. For the longest time The Underground(AKA Ski Market) had a really sick indoor mini ramp in store, one of the only in Boston. So last year when the Underground closed and the ramp was torn down many tears fell on Boston’s dirty streets. I had some of my first great mini ramp session on that ramp while in college and though I was living in Denver by the time it had been taken down I still was sadden by the news. But this post isn’t supposed to be sad or dramatic as I just saw that Boston’s best skate shop Orchard moved from the dregs of Mission Hill to the heart of hippster and bro land, Allston. The best part about this move is they now have tons of space, including room for an art gallery and a new MINI!!! I can’t wait to get back east to skate it! Who knows maybe The Produce will have an Artist Series show in the Orchard gallery sometime in the future.

I ripped a few shots from the Orchard site.
