The crew that skated today couldn’t have been more rad. The comradery and stoke was on high, even out of the water. This group ripped!
Representing for the ladies was Amber Torrealba. Don’t let the good looks fool ya, this girl had style.
Along with the killer judges for the day was Luke Pallone. This was Luke’s first time on the mic and he handled the commentary like a BOSS.
The man behind the lens, Anthony Liuzzi getting the angles for a documentary he has been working on since last year. He's been to all stops on the tour and has the gnarly crossover footage to prove it. Be on the lookout for its debut sometime in 2015.
Amber getting barreled with a layback powerslide on the kahuna, reppin’ the skim signature soft foam grip tape.
Alex Hood blowing minds with his keen sense of color coordination, matching the Rasta board shorts with the old school rasta ipaths, not the mention this boardslide through the corner. Yeah Alex!
Skateboarding defined truly from the heart. Schaefer was hyped. Top 4: 1st place - Alex Chapin; 2nd place - John Akerman; 3rd place - Joe Ward; 4th place - Turner Tenney
Florida Skimboarder Crossover Tour at SPoT number one qualifier, Alex Chapin taking home first place after blazing through the course with his deep bag of tricks. A well deserved victory, Alex. Congrats!
Long time friends, Brian Schaefer & Steve Pullara, and our announcer Luke pose for a quick farewell photo until next time their paths cross.
