Skateboarder Magazine and The Standard Hotel West Hollywood put on a mini ramp jam. Theres a few photos in this post of the guys killing it.

Here’s our final demo of the tour. Hope you enjoyed them as much as we did.

Tuk Shoes just sent out their newest ad with Kevin Staab. Check it.

Here is a post tour recap with photos from the teams phones. Enjoy and if we didnt see you this year, hopefully we’ll see you next.

Here’s our edit from our demo last weekend in Chelsea Piers. That park is super fun. Thanks to everyone who came out!

Due to the Long Beach event being canceled we switched it up and headed over to Chelsea Piers to skate their park. They’ve renovated that whole area and the skatepark is super fun. Tony and Kevin skated the bowl while a bunch of the guys skated the street area. Crowded as it was, everyone still got some tricks in.

The ramp went up Thursday in anticipation and preparation for the demo on Friday. Elliot Sloan, Mitchie Brusco, Kevin Staab, Jesse Fritsch, Neal Hendrix, Sandro Dias, and Tony Hawk skated in front of an estimated crowd of over 4,000. Right in front of The Standard hotel where the nights festivities would begin, the demo went off with out a hitch. Despite a little wind everyone skated really well and had a great time. Hopefully we’ll get to do this next year.

Due to Irene we had to head off course to Columbia, SC where we filmed a little edit at a skatepark there.

We spent a week at Woodward West this summer and filmed an edit for their Shootout contest. We hope you enjoy the fruits of our labor. Be kind, rewind, and vote please.

Oh man, seems like just yesterday we had a demo at frederick skatepark with the Pitcrew family. Such a good time. Check the edit for proof.

We had such a good time with the Pitcrew family in Frederick, MD. The Hill park is pretty fun too. Those guys help throw a good time and are kings of hospitality. Shawn Hale won the demo and the footage should prove it. Kevin skated the bowl most of the time while the rest of the crew including Tony skated the street and quarterpipes. David frontside aired the main quarterpipe and ended the demo. Wait until the footage comes out to see that one.
