30 prints documenting the height of the NYC skate scene, starting from the mid-90s and taken by Giovanni Reda line the walls of the Diamond Supply Co store in SoHo for the Diamond x Reda Photo Show. The colorful prints archive an old New York full of storied skate spots and skate legends, from Harold Hunter in the LES, to Danny Supa in the Meatpacking District, to Keith Hufnagel in Battery Park.A photo posted by Giovanni Reda (@giovannireda) on

Ben Liversedge BS 180 over a pillar that stuck out of Water Street in the Financial District at a time when there was an upswing in the market and seemed like people were making money hand over fist.
Keith Hufnagel crooks up a rail that is long gone in Battery Park along the Hudson river. I remember thinking how hard it was to go up the rail and how Keith did it with so much style and power.
Danny Supa doing a switch flip in the Meatpacking District where we had to avoid blood and guts on the floor from dead animals from all the packing plants that used to be there.
