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.

Street League and X Games Los Angeles

A little over 10 years ago, Ryan and I started attending X Games eventsas they started to really get a lot of things right, like the course, the invited skaters, and the format. We've been attending as spectators ever since, watching the evolution of their big event. This year, we're pleased to announce that we're working with X Games and ESPN as the skateboarding organizers for the Men’s and Women’s Street and Park disciplines. For the next three years, we'll be mixing skateboard business and pleasure with our friends at ESPN, as we all continue to help evolve their skateboarding events. This year, X Games is in Austin, Texas starting June 5th.
