<DIV>Hi</DIV>
<DIV>Yesterday was the 3rd Annual "Debris by the Sea" contest in Venice - hosted
by the VSA and we were one of the sponsors. It was a blast as usual and one
of my team riders, Kevin White took first place in the advanced
division. Geri Lewis knows how to throw a fun event for the kids! Lots of
young skaters entered and a lot of the pros showed up to help judge and just
hang out. Props to Bennet Harada, Jesse Martinez, Tonan, Tuma, Kevin Lewis and
Skip and everyone else who pitched in the help. The highlite of the event
was an old car, all tagged up with a rail welded to the trunk. It turned
out to be the hot ticket for tricks.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Many thanks to Jim Barnum, Spectrum Skateparks for the shou tout in Juice
Magazine. Jim is an amazing designer / builder of skateparks up in Canada. He
was very pro active in helping us develop construction standards and in keeping
parks in Canada free and unstaffed. If you are a skater you might know some of
his work: Hastings, Sculptoid Plaza, Squamish, Burnaby, Calgary, the Peanut Bowl
and many more. Props to Juice Magazine - one of the few skate mags to pay
respects to the guys who get out there and design and build the parks you love
to ride.</DIV>
