Venice ~ CA

I had a feeling when the Venice Walls became regulated last summer, it was a step towards closing them down entirely. Sure enough, now there seems there is not enough money in the coffers to keep the regulation program running and rumors abound of a possible closing in mid-July. Recently, some heavy hitters from our area's best crews have been hitting the walls, hopefully not for the last time.

This CRE8 piece was one of the cleanest things I've ever laid my eyes on. Some ass-heads went over it that night.
