adidas Skate Copa at Louisville

We get to work before the sun at all the adidas Skate Copa stops. From setting up sound to banners to the Boost Experience, there's a lot to get done before you hit the ground rolling. When we got here at 5:45am, there was a car full of kids just finishing skating. Then shortly after, another car full of skaters showed up. Amazing.

The vert ramp is a nice crusty walk down skateboard memory lane.

HiDefJoe early at work.

Body on the Shaqueefa job making custom shirts as usual.

Thanks for bringing your crew to another Skate Copa.

This is Paul Zitzer's hometown. Thanks for good times and fun discussions as usual, Paul.

Mike Krok, nollie backside overcrook.

The construction staff takes a break to watch. They need to get on that construction. It looks like doo doo all around here.

Nate Lowe, frontside 5-0.

Didn't get a name on this frontside bluntslide.

Alex Hancock got his team all the way to the Final head to head battle. That's a frontside feeble.

Dalton Wilcox, front crook.

Dalton Wilcox, noseblunt slide to fakie.

Filmer fatigue sets in quick with this harsh sun.

Bryce Benifield, kickflip wallride.

Tim and Scotty working on the ol' travel belly.

I hope your feet got to experience the walking on clouds from the Boost Experience tent.

Stay connected.

David Dixon, backside tailslide.

Alex Hancock, nosegrind revert.

Justin Henry, nollie noseslide.

Ryan Clements writes big checks, even on the small paper ones.

Tanner VanVark, frontside 360.

Dustin Blauvelt, back Smith.

Mark Davenport stays consistent with the Special Awards. From Burnout to Still Burnin'!

Congrats to Modern for 3rd place.

That Final head to head Jam was intense. 3rd Lair came out on top again this year.

Congrats to Home for the runner up spot.

Immediately after, things start hopping on the Boost the Bar, where anyone is welcome to get snapping for cash. Alex Hancock has a backside flip over it.

I like the wallie off.

Jon Fischer. There's one of these at every stop.

Justin Henry, nollie heel.

Jason dishes out the Boost cash.

Jack Olson collects the Boost cash.

Jack Olson double and triple dips on the Boost cash.

Some run down stuff near the park.

Thanks for Boosting it, everyone.

Jack came away with the Boost iceblock at this stop.

Now it's time to pack up the Toyota Tundra and head to the next stop in NYC.

But, not before the After-Party. Paul Zitzer and Pat probably have a discussion about some kind of strange theory.

Sem's work on the walls.

Jorge flexing on the felt as usual.

I had to show Body my 80's game skill and take down the offensively low Frogger high score.

There was a gay prom in the next room. We got the invite from these sisters. Thanks for the good times!

HiDefJoe is extra happy with his Real Street project wrapped up today and aired on ABC. Good night, see you at the next one!
