Looking for Lucas

Looking for Lucas — Skate park under the flyover, São Paulo, 2014

Skate park under the flyover, São Paulo, Brazil Autumn 2014, afternoon

I was the worst skater there and Lucas was the only one who never laughed. He spent an entire afternoon teaching me one trick I still cannot do. He talked about his sister who was a nurse. The flyover space was fenced off the next year and everybody moved on.
