Free-Wheelin' Fun

SK8 Charleston—the skate park first dreamed up by grassroots skateboarding advocacy group Pour It Now more than a decade ago and completed by Charleston County Parks in March—is building community, skills, and stoke for street and vertical skaters of all ages and abilities, not to mention BMX freestylers. Take a wild ride through the $4.8-million, 32,500-square-foot facility via the lens of skater and photographer Christopher Shane.
