School's Out Jam 2007
Photos and Captions by Rob Meronek  The day started out with a lesson on the factors that cause condensation. The course was sweaty like a cold beer mug on a hot summer day. Notice anything missing in this photo? There are no skateboards. We all had to sit around for a while waiting for the course to dry up. No skateboards allowed on the ice |
 It was full on mongo mania as usual in the kiddie divisions. The poop foot pushers always look like they're trying way harder just to be standing on their board |
 Dirt Weasel has a mini ramp in his backyard. Yo Dirt, when can I come and skate that thing? |
 Who dat? Pop shuv. Out of all the tykes with a dome piece on, this kid was my favorite. He wore that helmet until the very end of the day like it was a hat. He probably sleeps in it |
 Who dat? He probably still thinks Santa and the Tooth Fairy are real, but he's already got a nice looking smith grind |
 Alejandro Burnell doesn't even realize he's got a great Gonz ollie |
 Mongolian madness |
 Jumping off the block was a popular move in the kiddie divisions |
 This kid is waving goodbye right before he takes one for the team. Have fun |
 Baby Ganster here is sick. He came out swinging with a pop shuv 50-50 in his first run and won the 9 to 12 Division. This is a kickflip and his real name is Jamie Foy |
 A light snack in between runs for The Body |
 These are the 8 and Under winners. Alejandro has nuts in his cheeks like a squirell |
 9 to 12 Division winners |
 Shylo Tolliver - cornrows and lipslides |
 Paul Torrento - frontside pop shuv |
 Josiah Portillo - switch frontside 180 |
 Paul Torrento - varial heelflip |
 Seth Franco - lipslide |
 Who dat? This kid really put in some work to make this boardslide. I think it's pretty interesting watching kids learn the basics |
 Dylan Durgan - frontside nosegrind |
 Thta's Mike Espinoza on the flat ground warm up outside. It's a 360 flip |
 Marlee Miller - Mongolian ollie |
 Randy Tepper - lipslide |
 Jaime Ceruti - one foot ollie |
 Marcus Jalliber - kickflip |
 Derek Pelland - smith grind |
 Garret Miller - lipslide |
 Hector Marti is here on vacation from Puerto Rico with his family. After he rolls away from this kickflip noseslide, he's on his way to medical school |
 Hector Marti - ollie impossible frontside 50-50 |
 Justin Pelland - frontside flip |
 Jacob Portillo's legs are skinnier than the rail he's about to lipslide |
 Matt Town was killing it. Kickflip back tails on the hubba, backside tailslide shuv it out, and more. He won the 16 and Up Division. This is a smith grind |
 Joe Grant is back smithing for Jamie Thomas |
 Michael Manion has green Life Savers in his ears. This is a frontside noseblunt slide |
 Levi posted up with a gigantic cup of sauce right after this lipslide |
 Alex Pellegrino - frontside boardslide |
 Shouldn't the kid breakdancing be the one wearing the ghetto gown? |
 Yonis Molina - nollie crook. I saw him later pimp with a limp style. I guess the ankle got rolled |
 Dylan Perry's fakie 5-0 on the hubba is the way I would like all the photos to turn out, but that's not so easy |
 Blake Carpenter - nollie heelflip noseslide |
 Who dat? Half cab flip |
 Ryan Dillow - salad grind |
 Ryan Dillow - frontside nosegrind |
 Seen those new Matix ads talking about the man-g? They're everywhere |
 Porpe was talking mad poop about landing this switch frontside flip in the Jam, but things didn't work out. Porpe - take a poop. Speaking of poop, have you seen our new bathrooms? When i walked in there I thought I was in another building. Check them out when you get a chance and drop some schlow in a clean crapper for a change |
 Robbie Kirkland - shifty flip |
 Dylan Perry - switch frontside 50-50 |
 Baby Jamie - lipslide |
 TJ Sparks - I think that's a heelflip. Can't remember |
 Timmy Knuth - frontside feeble grind |
 The judges all broke their clipboards smashing them on the railing when Mike Espinoza landed this switch 360 flip |
 Every time TJ Sparks did a trick on the rail or down the double set, he always did something on the bank to bank leading up to it first. This is a kickflip front board |
 Porpe is looking uber hipster |
 That's the 13 to 15 winners taking home some gear. If your company sent products for the prizes and product toss, thanks for hooking it up |
 16 and Up winners |
 I think you need an assistant to put your pants on when they're this tight |
 The jam session in the Sponsored Division was better than the last 10 demos we've had |
 Every kid in this photo cares about that deck being thrown out except the one kid there with the Hazzard County shirt on. He don't give a fuh |
 Did you guys see the black dude with the white guy's head? I think he came up in the deck toss |
 This is Drunk Aaron's new 100 square foot studio apartment |
 After the Contest, we all went to go see Ed Selego's band, Abandoned Vehicles |
 One Eyed Mike made some Hand Banana stickers and they were immediately put to proper use |
 The Hand Banana crew - Bryan, One Eyed Mike, and Slop Funk Drunk |
 Sexy foot banana |
 Jimmy's got some old Arto's |
 The ladies got some fancy hand gear going |
 That's half of Abandoned Vechicles |
 Flying around a pit in an office chair is a lot more fun than sitting behind a desk in one like I'm doing right now wasting my entire Sunday |
 Allison's got the best coozie out - Bag of Suck |
 Pause for a foot fetish with the ladies |
 Now we're at the Czar Bar where all the rock stars hang out. For example, Anthony Furlong |
 Broken toe foot fetish on the all to familiar Czar Bar floor |
 Boobies and Hand Bananas |
 Buffalo Stance holds it down all around town |
 A full blown dance on the bar top train started and Britney was right up in the mix. Nice fishnets |
 If you wait until 3am, you can take advantage of all the drunk chicks. Good night |
