You partied Saturday night with the Damn Am crew, Sunday morning comes you might be a bit hungover so no better way than to be greeted by the 805 Brewers serving a lil bit of hair from the dog that bitchya. OH! 805 like the area code?! I get it!
Jereme
All eyes on me! Jereme Knibbs gets the attention with a Gap Noseslide. My favorite is Zion creepin in the stone.
Kane
Kane Sheckler doesn’t need the free pass from his older bro as he can hold his own: Treflip in the Semeez.
Chany
Chany and Kelly just absolutely livid about name spellings.

Would you believe me if I told you Eric Clark popped this Bluntslide into a 5-O? No but seriously would you? Photo: Kyle Seidler

Calm, Consistent, Confident… all attributes of Chase Webb. Triple C.

Zion
As semis are concluded it was time to unleash Golden Ticket winners and Zion Wright was taking no prisoners!
