Andrew Reynolds came to town for the Grand Opening Celebration of the new park in his hometown of Lakeland, FL. A lot of local shredders got clips in this one. Enjoy.
Got a few shots here from Team Pain Skateparks newest concrete wonderland in Lakeland, FL. The Grand Opening Celebration was this past Saturday…and it was epic. Keep your eyes peeled for the rest of the photos from Lakeland later this week on http://www.teampain.com.

Pedro Delfino and crew came up from Miami on Saturday for the Spring Roll All Ages Contest at SPoT. On Sunday morning, I caught up with them at Bradenton Riverwalk Skatepark as they were en route back to Miami for a quick session and some photos. – Nicks.
I have been receiving a ton of photo submissions, so I thought I would do a post to feature a bunch of them. They are too rad not to share. These photos have been coming in from all over the state of Florida…and even a couple from other locations as well. As always, please send your photo submissions to nocomplymagazine@gmail.com. Please be sure to include: skater’s name, trick, location, etc. Also, make sure to tag your Instagram photos #nocomplymag. Thanks for the continued support! -Nicks

Last Saturday evening, Midtown Skatepark hosted their 3rd Annual Midtown Massacre! Best Trick and Costume Contest. They held the Best Trick Contest on their brand new mini-ramp…and it looks like things got a little heated!
I was holding on to these two photos for the purpose of using them in the first print issue of No Comply Skateboard Mag. In January of 2013, the mag will be 2 years old. I really wanted to release the first print issue of the mag in January in conjunction with the 2 Year Anniversary. But, over the last few weeks I have been doing a lot of thinking. I have unfortunately, come to the conclusion at this point, that I am not going to be doing a print issue of the mag. At least, not for now. This doesn’t mean that it is totally out of the equation. It just means that, based on where I have placed my priorities in life at the present moment, it just doesn’t make the list. I have decided to focus my efforts (After Family, Friends, and Work) on continuing to evolve the website, shooting more photos, learning how to shoot video, and on growing my new apparel and accessories brand No Comply.
That being said, I am stoked more and more every day on how the mag has grown and on all of the rad people that I have met (and reconnected with) over the past two years as a result. It’s also really cool to hear all of the positive feedback from people that I meet. That means a lot! Thank you. Anyway, I hope everyone continues to enjoy the mag. Cheers! -Nicks

Team Pain Skateparks builds some of the best skateparks in the world. In the last year, they have built three incredible parks right here in the greater Tampa Bay area (Brandon, Apollo Beach, and Bradenton). I was in Colorado last week on vacation, and coincidentally stayed in a hotel about 500 ft from Team Pain’s latest project in Gunnison. So, the next morning I stopped by the job site to take a peek. Looks like they are moving right along as usual…It was 7 a.m. and 28 degrees, and the crew was already working. Gunnison, Colorado is a small town of 5,854 residents that sits at an elevation of 7,703 ft. If a town as small as Gunnison, Colorado can manage to have one of the best skatepark builders in the world build them a proper skatepark…why can’t your town? Take the lead, start a petition, and push your local city council to have Team Pain Skateparks build a proper park in your town. Check out the progress photos below. – Nicks
