Tampa Pro 2007 Saturday
Lincoln Ueda - 540 |
Neal Hendrix - backside 360 |
Mike Frazier - full cab |
I think this was Adam Taylor's first pro contest |
Mike Frazier's got a good frontside nosebone |
PLG - indy nosebone to fakie |
PLG - kickflip mute to fakie |
This year we had a special tent behind the vert ramp with some damn good food and beer reserved just for the pros and industry VIP's |
Today was Street Qualifiers. This is Anthony Shetler at his first pro contest doing a nollie half cab heel |
Nick Dompierre - front crook |
Paul Rodriguez had two ripping runs that included a perfect make on this switch flip |
Steve Berra won practice with stuff like this frontside flip, but he blew it in his run and lost a $5,000 bet with Rob Dyrdek on who would place higher in the Contest |
Eric Koston didn't have to skate today because he's automatically in the Semi-Finals from winning Tampa Pro in a prior year |
The VIP tent had free massages and the back cracker thing all day. Body ain't scared to take advantage |
The Vert Winners' got giant greenbacks with various industry heads on them. That's Gabe Clement from DVS, Justin Williams from Force, and Mic-e Reyes from Deluxe as dead presidents |
Stefan Janoski - kfbsts |
Tommy Sandoval - fs180ng |
Adam Dyet has these frontside flip melon grabs on lock |
There were free tattoos all day long. This one was a little disturbing. Brian Schaefer got a Bill Weiss tat on his calf |
Then Bill Weiss goes and gets Schaefer tatted on his ass |
Big Black was on the mic for a while and also announced Rob Dyrdek's run |
Nate Jones was another guest MC for a while |
Ian Hill from Fuel TV is down |
DJ Wade - this dude rips |
Foot fetish in the parking lot |
Jersey Sarah, meet Buffalo Stance. They both recognize each other from way too many chill shots of each other on the site |
The tat brothers. Schaefer and Weiss |
That's Camilla from Copenhagen and Clyde Singleton with a censored shirt |
Is Nina making it on the Rob and Big show? Those are Rob and Big Black autographs there |
Serious skateboard business going down in Schaefer's office in a judges meeting after the Contest |
Steve Berra, Brian Schaefer, and Rob Dyrdek swarmed by an army of MTV filmers |
Brian Anderson destroyed everything on the course today. Can't wait to see him skate again in the Semi-Finals |
Somehow I came up with the energy to go out to Czar for the After-Party. That's Rob Brink on the right, and Raven's boob nearly popping out on the left |
The Senator was getting extra loose on the stripper pole |
Rodney Jones from Billabong, Jaime Stone from Transworld, Craig Glover from CCS, and Buffalo Stance from skateparkoftampa.com |
Ed Selego must have spent about $20 tipping Audrey who performed an hour long show on the stripper pole for us |
Ashely Harrison wishes Ashlee was Ryan Sheckler right now |
Fashionable wristwear |
No matter how hard she tries, Filmer Sara cannot make a mean face. Tommy Sandoval, however, has the looks that kill |
Those are Olivia. I mean that's Olivia |
The SPoT staff is up late and at work early every night. That's Blaze, Sean Albright, and Bristol with that one eleventeen year old |
