After the TOA, Polar, Hopps, Magenta and Traffic squad hit Tampa on a stop from their Escape From New York Tour (which is their first tour ever, FYI) - it was time to head on down to Miami and hit some spots along the way.
Rob Gonyon and Kevin Tierney also escaped from New York but their trip was hashtagged #tropicalfantasy2k15
If you ever have been to Miami, I'm sure you have probably seen Paul DeOliveira and he was probably skitching a Lambo.
After the meet and greet at MIA, it was straight to streets where Ben Gore puts on a demo for the kids.
If you didn’t know, Ben Gore is an amazing photographer. Follow him on Insta to check out his work @lookatbensphotos
After the sunset, we found this bump to bar. Jimmy snaps an Ollie no problem but make sure to check the edit because he did this in a line.
Miami is amazing and is always producing amazing spots. Check out the wave ledges in the background.
After skating, we stayed at Ben Gore’s house in Pompano. I think this was the highlight of the trip for everyone. His family cooked everyone dinner, we had a bonfire, beers, a boat ride, and they hooked everyone up with a spot to sleep. Thank you so much for the hospitality, Ben and Family!
The next day, it was off to Stuart to stop by 561 skate shop and skate with the crew. Check out Josh’s filming steez as he chases the crew.
