Cure: Ben Raybourn | Belmar’s Bowl

Kelly Belmar’s bowl was built in a time when transition skating was done mainly on wooden ramps and the existence of concrete terrain was at an all-time low. During the 90s you could find homeowner Kelly Belmar, pool vets Duane, Hosoi, Grosso, Lance, Salba, Lucero and concrete upstarts like Remy Stratton, Omar Hassan, Chris Gentry, and Peter Hewitt cutting lines all over this gem. Yes, it was the only backyard made-to-skate bowl in existence at the time and getting a chance to skate it was a thing of dreams
