night sets

Lately I have been getting a fair bit of riding in and enjoying it more than ever. Thanks to a little gem of a spot i have found recently. There is a cove in the intercoastal near me that is just off the side of a major road. Me and my friend found it about a week ago and grabbed a good sunset sesh. We soon noticed that as the sun began to fade we could still see reasonably well as the light polls from the roadway shown pretty brightly in our direction. Its deffinately not ideal riding light but its been one of the biggest wakeskate blessings to come my way in a while.

I was just wondering if any of you guys have any spots like this or have ever tried to search them out. I got done wakeskating at 1030pm and had one of the better sets of my life. I feel a bit burnt though as i may need to put on some moonscreen before my next set out there.

I don't have a spot like that, but a few friends and I have been shooting for a video and we put those lights that are mounted on a stand on the top of my dock so we can shoot some night footy. It's only good for a drive by and one trick in the light, but night riding is definitely epic and super fun.

I've always thought someone should take an exposure shot at night when someone is whearing glow sticks on there ankles wrists neck in the helmet and bordering there board maybe on a system 2.0? So you can see the circle.

Just got back after a full days worth of wakeskating. We were welcomed with a full moon and rode some doubles as the sun rose. Cant wait to do it all over again soon.

we had a spot on mission bay that we'd set up with a little rail near where the street lights shone, a bonfire on shore and glowstick in the winch handle. best winch sessions in my life...
