Tampa Am

Luke McKaye shot a bunch of sequences for Tampa Am.

We spent the morning in meetings to go over everything we learned from doing another Tampa Am this weekend and how we can improve it and learn lessons for the next big one, Tampa Pro. I also spent a few hours emptying out my camera and getting a few photos together here. What a weekend. Thanks again to everyone that was a part of it from viewers to workers to lurkers and all in between.

We are celebrating 20 years of Skatepark of Tampa that started on January 1, 1993. I have a batch of headshots from Tampa Am at the halfway point in our history. These are from Tampa Am 2003. How many faces do you know?

Hopefully if you weren't in Tampa, you got to check out the live broadcast here on the site that we do for Sunday's Semi-Finals, Finals, and Best Trick. Sometimes I love numbers, so let's dive into some.

Thanks to everyone who joined in on the dance party and good times at the Tampa Am After-Party at The Bricks. We also had the Damn Am of the Year Awards. Check out a classic list of party photos and some banter.

Sunday at Tampa Am was a crazy day for our staff. From them running the shop and the largest crowd of the weekend to us putting the finishing touches on the live broadcast production, Sunday is a very hectic day, but also the most fun and the best skating.

Saturday at Tampa Am was another 117 people in the Qualifiers and the premiere of Volume One of the Nike SB Chronicles.

A few skate and lurk photos from the day at the Park and also the Dr. Octagon show in Ybor.

It was real close between Luke Hampton and Trevor Colden, but when the dust settled, it was Trevor in first by less than a point.
