2017 Damn Am NYC - Finals & Indy Best Trick Photos
Posted on Sunday, September 24, 2017 by Chris
Man, what a crazy final stop for Damn Am this year. Ivan Monteiro picked up not only the Santa Cruz "Smasher" Award AND 1st place overall, he also clenched the Damn Am of the Year award. That means he receives a Tampa Am Finals Golden Ticket and an invite to skate the 2018 SLS Pro Open. Yeah Ivan! As if the Finals weren't enough, the Indy Best Trick quickly turned everyone's head and Daisuke Ikeda won it with a 360 double flip down the LES double set.

Dressed for success, Matthew Horne gets this hodge podge of a day started for us with a Gap Smith Grind.
Never too early to start getting creative, Shane Farber takes one outta RyRey’s page with an Early Grab Rail Bonk.
What! You didn’t think they do Tre Flip Noseslides in the DUH BRONX?!?! Shawn Butler proves otherwise.
I didn’t see Ish Cepeda in the contest, but I did see him getting things started at Best Trick with a Nollie 180 down the double.
If jumpin down this double set wasn’t hard enough, it also entailed a short track race to get things goin.
Def doesn’t make the best photo, but Daisuke’s Double Tre down the double was and is completely insane!
Markus gave a few others their chance to get the Hardflip, but yeaaa sooner or later he had to go ahead and handle it 1st try!
Jereme Knibbs is always rip-roarin around the park so it would only make sense that he takes home the Bronson Speed Killer Award.
