Words and Photos by Rob Meronek

As usual, today was pretty mellow. The park was just about empty with only about 20 or 30 pros getting here early to get some extra practice in. There were a few die-hards here early for the Team Manager/Industry VIP Contest, also. That goes down tomorrow night. Below are a few photos from today. Later tonight, there's the Fabrek Art Show in Transitions Art Gallery back near the kiddie course. Drinks will be flowing along with a raging bowl session. Hopefully you'll be there instead of having to check it out on some website. See you there.

Matt Milligan - kickflip up the step-up

That's an awkward postion to be in on top of the vert wall. Rodney Jones pulled this frontside disaster to backside revert in just fine, though

Billy Marks - 360 flip fatty to flatty

Anthony Shetler - kickflip 50-50 on the hubba

Danny Fuenzalida - 360 flip over the bank to bank

Kevin Taylor - backside 180 nosegrind

Wow, not only does Billy Rohan do super good frontside flips, he can also do 540's on the street course like a vert jock. This one from the quarter into the bank was landed perfectly
