"With a gang of nimble friends, skater and photographer Tino Razo
documents the illegal underground skate scene around California's
empty swimming pools" - The Guardian
“Party in the Back is a portrait of a distinctly West Coast
vibescape — there’s a dusky Pacific feel to these images of skaters
hopping chain-link gates, of keep-out signs and watchful dogs, of
the sensual curve of empty pools. There are skaters, faces frozen
in profound focus or pure joy, defying gravity, riding the sides,
rising above the edges. Razo captures the thrill of making a place
yours for a time and the melancholy of letting it go." - Boston
Globe
"Physical and existential risk is on view here. The photographs are
raw and compelling." - Jamie Brisick
