The Broadway Bomb: The Worlds Most Dangerous Longboard Skate Race
Last month, Ryan Slack, a founding member of slayshTank, packed his belongings into a big van and set out from Austin to relocate in the epicenter of Hipsterdome, Brooklyn USA. rSlack continues to grace the pages of slayshTank.com with a style of photography all his own and we look forward to sharing his visual journey in the big city. This weekend he is shooting the Broadway Bomb longboard race in the heart of Manhatten. Check back at the slayshTank for pics from the event.
Check out this video from last years race, looks like enough slaysh for everyone’s face.
