We started out at The Berrics where shipments of all our adidas branding stuff was sent for us to pick up and bring to the Contest site. Porpe is applying for the ref job at BATB.
The skateboard rock stars that come through the doors here are always a nice surprise. Daniel Lebron is here with several skaters from the Nike and Lakai crews.
We hauled a truckload of gear over to Westchester where the Contest is at. All the kids are on filming missions here.
Down the street is a vintage #BoardrBus.
Our day starts super early getting the course branded up with adidas and Boost.
The skate rats are out here super early while we work.
Keep up with a behind the scenes look and random chatter about anything and everything on our Snap Chat: TheBoardr. We do giveaways there, answer questions about product, stalk skateboard celebrities, and all that.
I hope you came up on some ripping new kicks like these kids.
Learn about that Boost technology here and after you stand on it, you'll be sold. Pick up that ADV Boost shoe here.
Sometimes shade just doesn't work out for the judges. We've got some custom iPad protectors for them. Tim and Vern on the mic along with James Craig, Mike Sinclair, and Jason Rothmeyer on the scores. That is one set of fantastic skate nerds and critics right there.
The family camp outs at these events are so good.
Tristan is here skating for Val Surf with a fast plant on the Boost the Bar.
Your girl is checking to see where you're at on the instant scoring and updates provided by The Boardr Live.
Chris Troy is here with Surf Ride. Unfortunately, he's not making it to Tampa Pro or Bro this year due to work obligations. Hope to see you back in Tampa soon, Chris.
Jeff's here with Surf Ride and is just about to shuffle his feet for a fast late shuv it over the Boost the Bar.
Thanks for coming, y'all.
Last time we saw Julluis Jimenez when he used to live in Tampa, he was a ripping blunt nose grabbing little toddler. Now he's a grown man living in Califonia. Time flies when you're having skateboard fun.
I didn't get this dude's name, but I sure like the wallride overcrook.
At every stop, we have $250 for three special awards that we make up on the spot. One of them went to Chris Troy.
Following the main event, the Boost the Bar Best Trick is open to anyone to skate, and as you can see here, any trick selection.
Austin Flood fakie flipped it and frontside Half cab flipped it and won the Boost the Bar Best Trick at this stop.

Street League and X Games Los Angeles

Last night, my wife Brittany and I flew to LA. After a late night landing and amazing airport pick-up by our friend Lanna with a beer and non-cocktail ready in the car for a pregnant Brittany, we went straight to bed to prepare for an early day of what I guess is work even though I don't have a job right now. Work being high fiving everyone, talking general bid'niss, figuring out my plans, sorting through opportunities, and just watching some skateboarding. When we were'nt skating or watching skating it was couples lurk through LA random spots. I've got a few photos from the weekend on site at Street League and the X Games, plus a cell phone edit from the whole thing.
