Shaqueefa Mixtape Volume 2 Premiere in Tampa

Published 12/29/2013 by Rob Meronek

That Shaqueefa Mixtape Volume 2 premiere tonight made me straight up proud of my local skate scene and was the most live one I've ever been at. I'm a full generation older than all these dudes and I'm hyped to see they're keeping skateboarding raw like I knew it when I grew up in it. I know skateboarding's in a good place when I see something like that come together. All that corpo and commercial stuff that's such the norm with things today hasn't touched the basics of what I know skateboarding to be, especially the entrepreneurial spirit of it. Nice work, Buggica and crew. I snapped a few photos in there before my Houdini act out.

Shaqueefa Mixtape Premiere: Justin Myers and Steve Buggica

Just as I rolled up, I found the executive producer cattle herding with the bullhorn out front. Steve Buggica, thanks for getting this video done. That's Justin Myers aka Baby Drew with him.

Shaqueefa Mixtape Premiere: Tommy Presley

Tommy Presley aka T4PREZ regulates with the green billy club.

Shaqueefa Mixtape Premiere: Frank Branca

Frank Branca is the kind of top quality skateboard gadget nerd we need in this industry to pass the culture torch along. Keep pointing that camera, Frank.

Shaqueefa Mixtape Premiere: Shaqueefa Store

Over in the corner, the Shaqueefa store is MCM.

Shaqueefa Mixtape Premiere: Shaqueefa Product

Every piece is one of a kind.

Shaqueefa Mixtape Premiere: Scotty Conley and Dave Cruz

Scotty's on it with the personal service to keep the Mixtape talent looking sharp. That's Dave Cruz, who came through with some ripping footage in there.

Shaqueefa Mixtape Premiere: Jeff Lenoce

Jeff's in town for the holidays, enjoying a break from California gridlock.

Shaqueefa Mixtape Premiere: Ternell Watson

Another thing skateboarding needs is people taking care of their higher learning while still staying on the wheels. Ternell is doing just that.

Shaqueefa Mixtape Premiere: White Girl Ass

I don't know if the white girl ass is enough to fill the trunk.

Shaqueefa Mixtape Premiere: Crowd

Two grease back horse mullets, camo, beards, beanies, cheap beer, pool tables, and no girls. It's a legit ass skateboard party.

Shaqueefa Mixtape Premiere: Yonnie Cruz

Yonnie and his lady are down from their NYC Tampa transplant life. Maybe I'll do that one day.

Shaqueefa Mixtape Premiere: Get In

Don't nobody tell Fire Marshall Bill about this. There had to be two showings due to the over capacity crowd for this theater.

Shaqueefa Mixtape Premiere: The Red Room

The Red Room is about to get live.

Shaqueefa Mixtape Premiere: Buggica Speech

A quick speech from Buggica with a few Instas and it's on.

Shaqueefa Mixtape Premiere: The End

And that's how it ends after Yonis shut it down.

Shaqueefa Mixtape Premiere: Hair Did

Who got they hair did?

Shaqueefa Mixtape Premiere: Jimmy Lannon

That's Jimmy Lannon with the 'do and some ripping footage in the Mixtape.

Shaqueefa Mixtape Premiere: Piro Sierra

Piro Sierra is another Florida to NYC transplant. It seems that more common these days than the California move.

Shaqueefa Mixtape Premiere: Pano Crowd

This was just a small sample of the scene. Check a few seconds of video here.

Shaqueefa Mixtape Premiere: I'm Out

And there's my Houdini quick escape back home on the cruiser. Thanks again ya'll for a great premiere.

Pat Stiener opens it up with a part in It's All That. Following is a good crew of current Tampa locals like Aaron Austin and former ones like Kevin Coakley with the list going on all the way down to our filmer HiDefJoe whose travel belly is snapping his boards. Even Alex Donahue in there with a trick?!? I feel like I live in a big ol' real city when I see video parts filmed in all the blocks surrounding my downtown neighborhood. Thanks for finishing up this project, Frank Branca, as well as shredding in there yourself.
