I wish I had more time to document all the inking. Norman Woods was one of hundreds who got some from Atomic Tattoos.
My lil' homies and their Silly Bandz. This is the only legit one, though.
I also saw Schaefer upside down in the corner. The look on Paul Zitzer's face is amazing. That's Schaefer's feet pointing up.

Evan Smith's kickflip reminds me of one of the best looking ones from the 90's. Remember Nate Jones?

Jeffrey Marshall ripped his way to the Finals looking damn good with tricks like this leveled frontside noseslide.

The Moat Race is about to begin. Load up with eggs and get ready for the first kid under the bridge.
We're now back inside where people are getting some incredible things for their first inking. This kid got "f**k it."
Irma Schaefer came to support her son who started this crusty skateboard hut back in 1993 and made it what it is today.
James Craig and the Blind crew - thanks for the support and being on the judging staff all weekend.

My nightlife Saturday at the Anniversary Party was a blur. I woke up hungover on Sunday with these photos in my camera. I wonder if Reemo is a Superchunk fan.

When the night started and the dance floor was still empty, Misha Cracker and the Isralie crew were already in an all dude dance party on stage.

Two V or not two V, that is the Tito question. I guess a double v-neck is a w-neck.
Skater Profile: Tito Porada
Doug Fender is an old friend of mine that I loaned my Mouse VHS video to. I wonder if he still has that.
George Cutright is the Team Manager at adidas. Thanks for bringing a crew of damn good skateboarders, George.

I think the louder you yell, the faster your beard grows. Ask Tom and Allen.
Skater Profile: Allen Russell
Clint Walker's crooked grind to nose manual on the small rail was amazing.

David Clark and Jake Donnelly are both celebrating getting beyond 100th place.

Tim Zom smokes like a bale of weed a day. He's probably wondering why these silly American nightclubs don't allow it.

The toilet dude, Joey from Nike SB.
Paul Zitzer, Rodent, and Wayne Schaefer - good night, see you at the next shidig.
