Hot Wheels Junior Series at Huntington Beach

Zion is here early for his blister pack photo.

Scotty the Body, at your service.

Parents doubling down on the filming so grandma and grandpa can check the runs. It was so good to see the amount of families making a full weekend of the event.

If you're in this crowd, thanks for making this such fun weekend for us.

Ruby and her brothers David and Jonathon are a ripping skateboard family. This is a lipslide on the wall in the park.

Lilly on a frontside ollie over the hip in the park.

Koston Eaton was one of my favorites out there. He's already skating like a grown man in that tiny body. So is Mr Bacon Beast there with him.

I saw Tate putting in the work to get his boardslide on the end of this rail so I asked if I could shoot a photo. I like how that has the effect of giving you a bit of motivation to make it. Tate got it! Thanks for the photo man, and nice meeting you.

Nobacel taking a back lip to fakie down the drop.

Kristion Jordan on a big front feeble for a 10 year old. Find him over in the bowl doing nosegrab 540's, too. Oh, and he boardslid El Torro? Wow.

Stone Sullivan on a BSTS.

Austin Turgon on a BS180NG.

Roman, new to the three stripe crew, on a backside 180 nosegrind.

I want to hang one in my room!

Ryder taking a smith grind through the corner.

Serres Rossing took a harsh slam in the deep end just moments before this stale fish he blasted on his next run.

Fresh off front feebles on the big rail on the street course, Kristion is over in the Park doing leveled out nosegrab 540's.

Ryder with a feeble grind in the deep corner.

Sota Tsuji ended up winning Park Advanced. This front blunt is the tail end of his ripping run.

Shaw Sabori was telling me how it's been a while since he entered a contest. Thanks for skating this one, Shaw. That's a 50-50.

I didn't get a name on this boardslide.

Not sure who this is on the kickflip, but it's looking good. Update: It's Tama Shimabukuro.

Another boardslide from someone who rolled away before I could introduce myself and get a name.

Zack Beilfuss on a back smith.

Roman, 360 flip.

Julian De Palma on a noseslide.

My focus is rusty behind the lens. That's Koston on a front feeble.

Keanan Hinton on a front feeble.

Nobacel Villalobos on a Smith grind.

Registation was busy all day!

We were at the contest for 3 days so here is a DOTD for each day.

Fully Tattooed at 9!

The park was packed all weekend.

Some chill warm ups with the tail drop.

The legend Joe Hammeke talking his kid Ansel out of rolling into the deep end.

Thread the needle for the drop in.

Caiden Cernius cruising.

This blew my mind. Little dude rolled in from up here.

It was hard to find a time when the front entrance was this empty.

One more DOTD!

It's all love out here at the Hot Wheels Jr. Series.

Congrats on getting the Wood Ward Challenge Accepted Award Urijah Martinez!

A lot of skaters out today!

Guys, that's not a seat.

Heavy cast of judges.

Gavin showed up to kick it.

Proper smith from Phoenix.

Stoked on his run!

This is just wild.

I bet they are all out looking for shade.

We had some big Hot Wheels show up.

Off the Vans.

Looks like they found some shade.

Out fit of the day goes to Reagan Chandler.

A lot of faces like this all weekend.

Ansel Hammeke May be the only kid we have ever had do both BMX and Skate!

Zion with the front 180.

Roman and Myles looked like they were in an Olympic street doubles contest.
