Andalè Wheelie Dope Coverage 2017

Posted on Tuesday, June 6, 2017 by Chris

Andalè knows how to kick off the weekend with the Wheelie Dope contest here at the Skatepark of Tampa. All the locals showed up not only to throw down tricks but to hang out with Joey Brezinski and win a trip to the finals in Santa Monica. After his trip to Barcelona, Joey showed up sick as a dog but toughed it out and still had a blast taking Snapchats and sticking his head through the broken Andale piñata. Everyone skated, ate some burgers, attacked the piñata and had fun with their friends all night, and this was just the start of the weekend. Huge thanks to Andalè Bearings and Joey Brezinski for bringing another great time to SPoT!!
