Shooter's Comments: I've always wanted to stop and photograph the skateboarders in the Lawton Skate Park so today, while driving around looking for something interesting, I thought I'd swing by and see if anyone was in the park.

A couple of riders were practicing their jumps and said it would be alright for me to snap some pics. I got as close to the edge as I could, while not being in their way, and shot away. They didn't disappoint with their jumps and riding the rails.
