Andy Johnson

It's the week of Tampa Pro, but we're not quite there yet. This is when all the setting up and tightening up happens around the park to make it even better than last year's. Back in our Innetech offices, it's business as usual. Andy's got your SPoTTampa.com orders boxed and ready to ship.

Our newest staff member back here in the nerd cave is Adam Washell, who hails from my hometown of Lakeland, FL. Adam is helping with tightening up the retail end of things and ordering lots of cool shit for us to sell in the shop.

You remember the Tampa Pro survival kits we did last year? Well, we're doing them again and they're even better this time. All the Pros will get one of these to help them get through the weekend.

Get to know this area because this is where the free drinks will be served. Monster will also have plenty of canned energy in case you start getting faded.

Out in the courtyard, the banners and branding are already in place for the Converse Concrete Jam on Saturday night. I can't wait to see the insane shit that goes down over this keyhole gap. Make sure you stick around for that party - Patman & Robin (Pat Duffy & Rob Welsh) will be performing, as well as a Misfits cover band.

Look at the size of this projection screen that Brian Reardon and Auxiliary Channel are putting in this year for the live webcast! I call dibs on this thing if they ever get rid of it. Make sure you tune in at Streetleague.com.

Mikah Collins

Mikah Collins apparently doesn't mind either. This is the definition of the word "sketchy". That's Streetleague's Shawn Seward with 911 on speed dial.

Brian Reardon clearly has a huge list of responsibilities for the weekend, as him and his team Auxiliary Channel will be making sure the live webcast comes through crystal clear for you if you can't be here in person. No pressure, Brian.

SPoT private label is always a good call. If you can't be here in person, show some love online. Notice anything different about the shop floor?

Well, here's what the shop floor looked like before...now it has a fresh new coat of paint. We're adding little upgrades all over the park to make it even better. Let us know what you think.

Thursday night is our Welcome to Town Party and this year, we're doing it at The Bricks with a skateboard photo show called "Moat Definitely". Here's a sneak peek at some of the work that will be on display by Ed Templeton, Bryce Kanights, Bart Jones, Mike Burnett, Rhino, and more. We hope to see you there and all weekend. I can't wait to see some old faces and meet some new ones. Happy Tampa Pro, everyone.
