This one’s been a long time coming. It’s with great pleasure we present to you, the original environmentally correct skater, Tom “Wally” Inouye on this week’s Monday Cover. Wally is the founder and CEO of Inouye’s Pool Service, a water conservation movement whose mission statement reads: “Conserve Water – Drain Your Pool.” Check out all that is Wally after the turn.
Congratulations Wally!

Nice Rich. Is that deathbox/BK shot Missoula? Fun looking pool with the stairs and all.
Hey Tristen, yeah we had a great trip and thanks for the support. Mac, yep that’s Missoula and yes, it’s fun. Ditto on the support as well.
Nice shots Rich! Still ripping……..after all these years….
I need more gas money! Good shots!
looks like you have a sensor problem w/ your camera, or something, as do i
or it could be my brothers computer, i dont know
Check out that old guy killing everything in sight!
What kind of sensor problem?
Nice shots Rich! Looks like a great trip, who ordered all that sun? Wally’s still killin it.
Great shots Rich! Wally is truly an inspiration and it was awesome to hang out and skate with him and the rest of our crew over the weekend out in Big Sky country. Road trips are great for the soul, but a bit tough on the old bones.
Thats my hero! Killer shots of your trip.
it was the computer i was looking @ them with, sorry, my d80 has pink/green thin line that goes through the picture, but it goes away if i shoot w/ raw and put it into Lightroom, cool shots, get radical.
Wally Ripin, as always, 1970’s-1980’s-1990’s-2000’s. and still going. WOW.
Some cool shots of Wally. Love the hips and the levitating board. That massive oversized jersey barrier on top of that brick bank looks so rad. Where is that?
That “massive oversized jersey barrier on top of that brick bank” is at Pendleton.
Wally killing it!! road trips are fun ,thanks for the great images rich
