Sand, sun, and sk8ers

Walk the busy boardwalk of Venice Beach in Los Angeles, and you"ll see more than distant yachts sailing past—like an endless stream of skateboarders whizzing by within inches, always seeming to dodge you and your snow cone at the last second. Wanna bet they"re headed to this world-famous skatepark right on the beach?
