Butler’s 7/18/10.

Ben had a little BBQ/skate sesh yesterday complete with some live music that I unfortunately missed. The ripping was still going down after the bands pulled the plug, so I took a few runs then I got out the camera for a few shots.

ASE/Broken Mag Hessian Session 7/10/10.

The guys at ASE and Broken Magazine held a little mini ramp jam and BBQ on Saturday, so KB and I drove down to check it out. Nick Gates hyped the crowd into death match style frenzy as Slayer was pumping thru the sound system. I only took a few pics towards the end. Kevin ended up taking first place, Johnny Abernathy took second and everyone else was third.

Eddie’s 7/3/10.

Finally made it over to this skate funzone Eddie has been talking about. The pool has nice transition in the deep, but the shallow is pretty much unridable…making it a little challenging. It only took KB and Tristan and few runs to get it figured out.

Tristan takes a big 5-0 over the school of fish.

KB, frontside grinds? all the time.

With some heavy motivation, Nathan gets over the light.

Sheriff Eddie showin’ his badge.

Then took the session to the mini…

KB sweeps the deck.

The Slam Contest 6/27/10.

Went down to the Slam contest at Costa Mesa Skatepark on Sunday to check out the festivities. Pretty rad event that was put together really well. Got there a little late, so didn’t get any of the girls or street contest. Here’s what I got.
