Day Two: Saturday, August 30
I just wached the sickest best trick contest I've seen in a while. Ten grand was on the line for the winner. From where I was standing, you can't really tell there's a 12 foot deck on that bank to bank. Some damn good moves thrown down included:
That's about it for today. I'm writing this while being slammed around in Brian's truck on the road to Deluxe so I can upload these photos and video for you nerds. Enjoy. Oops, nevermind, no one was at Deluxe or the Thrasher offices at 8pm on Saturday. The SOTY video premiere and parting is going down at this bar called Slims. We're skipping that for now and going to eat. That sentence above was written last night at about 8pm. It's now Sunday morning at about 11am and I'm at the Deluxe offices uploading the photos and video that you're looking at right now. About five or six hours ago, I was still holding it down at some after party/bar I ended up at which I now wish I definitely didn't do. Today some kind of shop owner/buyer contest is going down which sould be pretty fun. If I can get this bad hangover to go away I might just skate in that. One last irrelevant to skateboarding point: Deluxe has some kind of restriction on their network for accessing popular skateboarding sites, including this site, which is part of the reason this story's a day late. I attempted to pull some crazy workaround to get the photos and video put in the database, but I'm over it now. Check out photos and video when I get back to the comfort of home on Monday. Ok, nevermind. I just figured out a way through. Can you tell I don't ever edit what I write? What? Did I just spit out that nerdy crap? Like you care - whatever - blah. I'm going to get off this keyboard, catch up with everyone, and go have some fun. |
