It’s only two weeks away from March – you know what that means? It’s park season, baby!
Time to whip out our warm fits, charge up the JBL speakers and head out with your best buds for some bluebird park laps.
Something that Rhythm Wadano’s Diego Guevara knows all too well. When he’s not hustling behind the tech benches at Rhythm Wadano and Rhythm Happo, you’ll most likely find him cranking out some freestyle laps in 47’s park (or stocking up on Strong Zero’s at the konbini before getting there).
