Skateboarding and Leica pair well together. In fact, Leica even commissioned a short series about the two.

In November, I was walking around Portland’s waterfront to quell a feeling of restlessness arising from my recent reclusion. I sat at a bench near the ferries in the Old Port district. A pair of skateboarders rolled by and sat at a bench adjacent to mine. One of them, seeing my camera, asked if it was fast enough to catch them in action. I smiled, and we went to work.
