Swampin!

Heres Brock Gomez's espn edit of that amazing school we rode last weekend. The video pretty awesome too.

“Anyone who has been to Southern Louisiana can tell you that the landscape is completely flat; some parts of New Orleans are even below sea level. On top of that the state is losing coastal wetlands at an estimated 25-35 square miles per year. These factors have forced people in the coastal areas to adapt their building methods to accommodate the rising waters of floods and hurricanes. The spot featured in this video is a prime example of how the architects and engineers in the area are dealing with the rising waters. A by product of these construction methods is a perfect street spot hidden deep in the swamplands. Unfortunately, in another decade or so this spot may be underwater.” -Brock Gomez
