Right in time for the upcoming holiday season, Mike Blabac has released signed prints of a 1997 classic from his archive. Mike Carroll at the San Francisco Library is a hallmark of the Modus Operandi era. This image encapsulates one of skateboarding’s most celebrated periods perfectly. And, in terms of composition, it doesn’t get much better than mid-flight Carroll juxtaposed with the statue, gap, and buildings in the background. This is street skating; this is high art. Grab a 16” x 20” print for $100 via Blabac’s Etsy before they’re gone.
