Welcome to our first all ages contest of 2015: The Valentines Day Massacre presented by Dickies. Here's Keenan Lewis warming up before doors open.
The Boyd family here to support Danny.
Danny is here almost every day. It's amazing to watch him slash this 6ft quarter pipe.
Felipe Duarte - Blunt Pull In.
Darius Norton repping Jitt Squad with a Back Smith. Look at that foot!
...and they were hyped.
Mikey Edsall - No Comply. #faworldentertainment
8 & under results are here. Congrats to everyone who placed!
Here's the 9-12 division winners. These guys killed it.
After 13-15 we took a small break. That's Josh Knight, grill master, flipping burgers.
Wesley Box and a few people were breaking in the new concrete course. That's a Texas Plant.
Jake Yanko - Front Smith.

Even though it was a Massacre, it was still a Valentines Day Contest. Best couple award definitely goes to these guys.
