2018 Valentine's Day Massacre Coverage

Posted on Friday, February 16, 2018 by Clint

The adidas Valentine's Day Massacre contest went off last weekend and we got our first all ages contest of the year in the books. We're stoked that the 8 and under age group is growing up and we're excited that the age group is being replenished by some serious rippers! This year has started off with some great skateboarding and a serious battle to the finish went down in the sponsored division. Thanks to adidas, Element Brand, Thrasher, Shake Junt, Spitfire and Arcade Belts for putting this contest together with us. We are very grateful for your support.
