The away team arrived in NYC yesterday for the Damn Am contest this weekend, and it didn't take long before everyone linked up and started ripping through the streets. As usual, we crashed the Theories of Atlantis HQ and Florida homie Pat Stiener was our guide. We'll have the SPoT Life episode for you later next week, but for now, check out a sneak peek of some photos from the day. Photos: Bart Jones (except where noted)

Eric McKenney
...I mean, don’t get me wrong: we would never be the type of dudes to judge people on skating or keep track or score or anything ; ) but if we did you could say that McKenney would be the MVP of the day.
