It was a perfect night to hold a skate competition, the sun was setting and the kids ready to rip. Just two nights before Halloween so we knew when we asked people to show up in costume our request would be granted. Is there anything more rad than watching a tiny little grom boost out of the bowl wearing a Spongebob outfit? I'm hard pressed to find something cooler, but, there was something better than the costumes. It was the technical level of skating that went down for our Hallows Eve Bowl Bash. Although Josh Sandoval took the Pro divison, Kiko Franciso definitely did not disappoint when he conquered the Groms and Lizze Armanto not only took the Girls division but turned heads when she stepped it up and competed in the Sponsored Pro as well. The night was truly amazing, and if you don't believe us then look no further than the video evidence below. Not to mention Danny Supa, Willy Santos and Pat Duffy showed up to be guest judges so everybody was skating extra hard trying to impress those hero's. Big thanks to the City of Lake Forest, Etnies Skatepark and of course Slush Puppie for supplying insane slushies and free nachos with popcorn. I still have a tummy ache. Also, for an extended gallery visiit us on Facebook. Hope you all had a happy Halloween.
The 2012 Street League season kicked off in Kansas City this past weekend as it did last year-- with skateboard technician Nyjah Huston taking home $150,000. Huston's ability to land difficult and technical tricks consistently makes him almost unbeatable in the current Street League format.
"It was a hard one tonight, that's for sure!" said Nyjah. "I definitely had to work for it. I love the challenge, though, and to skate with these guys is great."
