When your home park gets a makeover, you still have to pay respect to the place that started it all for you. Return to Kristion Jordan’s once-metal stomping grounds and see where it all began. Today La Pintoresca Skatepark is cement, and he explains how it has changed for the better while still serving as a worthy place to practice when he first started skating at just 7 years old.
Now 17, Kristion then takes us to hit a few street spots he grew up on and still finds himself returning to occasionally. He stomps a heavy hardflip at Elliot Middle School after warming up on the 12-stair handrail, then he rallies off a handful of tricks at Altadena Elementary School. Watch Kristion stack with ease, and hear about his soon-to-be-released Plan B part. He explains the struggle of breaking both arms over the course of filming and how he had to throw away clips because of how much he has grown recently.
