Well, if you weren't in Tehachapi, California this past weekend, you missed one hell of a Damn Am contest. These dudes are good - REALLY good - and only getting better. In the end, Zach Saraceno walked away with 1st place and a Golden Ticket to Semi Finals at Tampa Am this year. He's also in the running for Damn Am of the Year, which means he could go straight to Tampa Am Finals AND get to skate the 2017 Nike SB SLS World Tour. Thanks to all our sponsors and everyone who came out - stay tuned for the SPoT Life episode coming later today. Photos: Bart Jones
