Rich Adler & Rob Straser - March 2010 Howl

The photos from the March 2010 Skateboarder Howl section have always been stuck in my mind ever since I first saw them thirteen years ago, especially Rich's backside lipslide. I didn't grow up seeing him in skate videos (besides his Logic #9 part), but when a photo of him would occasionally pop up in Skateboarder, I was always stoked because he was always skating an interesting spot. Straser's back Smith through the kink is also really sick.
