Osiris Ad with Lee Yankou

On the same day of this wallie shove, we headed over to this rail which has been soo typically shredded often, but Mr. Yankou found a way to skate it a different way.
While shooting this photo, I asked him if he was going to fakie or straight. He replied quickly, "Dude... straight!" Arguably, I commented "But, I think fakie might be easier, since your body is already going that way," considering the trick was super knarly. He finished our conversation with a hype'd smile, "Naw, man.. Straight is way sicker." Obviously I didn't have much to say after that.

What was funny is rumor has it, that this was supposedly going to be a cover for Concrete Magazine. Another rumor was this cover was at the press, when we all saw Andrew Brophy photo in his Skateboarder interview. Quickly withdrawn and replaced nicely with a Jamie Tancowny cover. Thanks to Osiris Canada for the quick pickup of this photo and Concrete for even a chance of a possible cover, plus Lee for ripping man!
