Tampa Bro: A Session and BBQ in the Dream Driveway

HiDefJoe's got you on the video coverage. He's the latest addition to our crew here at The Boardr.

Mark's here early with some of his custom glass work. Damn, thanks Mark!

Thanks Chad Cardoza for making the Tampa Bro deck.

The industry garage talk is heavy here in this circle with Gabe Clement, Mike Sinclair, Jason Rothmeyer, Kyle Berard, and Jaws.

Chaz Ortiz knows his way around the tranny a bit with a nice looking front rock.

Damn, Mark, you got it old guy style like that? We should play a street plant game of SKATE next time.

Watch for Bo on a new show he's got on MTV coming up soon.

The Editor had to get Bo on the cover. Thanks for repping The Boardr sticker, Bo!

Nick Matlin on a BSTS. I spy Bernie.

Evan looks like he rolled straight out of that PBR tent.

How many Instagrams were done from Jereme's backside grab over the hip? I had to fight for media space.

Willy Akers was cruising around nursing a knee injury.

Nick Matlin's got the appropriate trick on The New Deal Westside deck.

Stefan Janoski has been validated as a legitimate career skateboarder now that The Editor hooked him up with a cover. He was keeping it casual today as you can see.

Chris Troy is coming out to join the fishing scene in the back yard.

I don't think one fish came out of the water. We need some lessons from Johnny Tang.

Justin Strubing and Seamus, supplier of the tall cans of everyone favorite grown up sauce.

Stefan Janoski and Justin Brock are the best looking beards on the river.

Dyet and John, crouching tigers.

I don't think Justin ever made this Japan air, but you at least need to see the photo of that tweakage.

A rare sighting of Mike Rogers padless.

Chris Oritz, Willy Akers, and John Montesi, a nice spectrum of personalities in skateboarding.

It's starting to look more and more like a real event instead of a casual gathering of friends with the giant PBR can and Red Bull vehicles here.

I'm creepin' on a Steezus Christ selfie here.

If you get here early, you get Porpe's good BBQ. If you get here later, you get his burgers.

Adam Dyet looks like a natural on the river.

Dan Rogers is fishing for proper reporting and data out of his business that always seems to be a bit of a problem for various companies. I wish I could solve the world's data issues, but for now, I have to just focus on The Boardr and our systems.

Paul Schmitt aka The Professor and Mike Rogers.

Porpe and Shane O'Neill are going over the plans for his private skatepark. I hope we can push around in it soon.

Jared's inner hippie comes out on the river with the animals.

Colin Clark and Strubing on the sunset sauce, the best time of the day to tip one.

Scott Koerner from Dakine, Gabe Clement from Matix, and Keith Wilson from Indy might not be into the hip hop I blasted all day from the Red Bull ATV thing back there.

I've got a nice interview lined up with Donny Barley about working in the skateboarding industry after a pro career that will on the site soon.

The Dango! Thanks Ryan for hosting another great gathering of friends at your house.

If your son was Skater of the Year, does that make you Father of the Year? If you're ripping like Thomas Taylor here, yes.

Alex Bibiloni was one of a few girls here shredding.

Gabe Clement has serious chill cam coverage in this photo set. Vern Laird is here to call you out.

Curren Caples was up in the trees.

Willy Akers is permanently on the road right now with just his truck as living quarters. That's how to live when you're young and free.

Chris Nieratko and Ron Allen are fans of each other and both just met right before I took this photo.

Tyrone Olson is the proud owner of a new SLR and a stock of filming gear. Watch for him in the streets pointing it at you.

Kamal, Jake Donnelly, and Peter Ramondetta practicing for holding it down behind the skate park all weekend.

The party ends at sundown, ya'll. The Dango, Pat, and Bobby are still welcome to lurk it as long as they want.

I'm ending it with a prototype foot fetish with Bobby from adidas. Most people keep their shoes on for a foot fetish. Thanks again everyone for stopping by. See you all weekend long.
