A Week at Skate Camp

Welcome to Lake Sequoia, home of the infamous Skate Camp.

Nyjah introduces us with some colorful tricks on the street course.

Augie figured he'd try give him a hand, instead.

Jason had another hand in mind though... Switch Unit Flip (Switch Frontside Invert 360 for those who don't know).

Canada had the gnarliest flatspots, but it didn't stop him from blasting Melons.

Travis Knapp-Prasek shoots for Satori Movement and also runs Swarm Life. He shot this fucking rad photo of myself getting Inverted. Thanks again man, it was great getting acquainted with you this week!

Until next year.....

Traveling, filming, building, and skating. What more could you ask for?

The Highlands.

Pools back to back to back, all within walking distance.

It's like walking into a candy store of pools. I think I speak for us all when I say, "We live for moments like this".

Jarred Hager showing us his proper Tuck-Knee skills. It was such a privilege being able to work with the Hager Brothers and the entire Element Skate Camp staff for a week. 

We've started investing in concrete buggies instead of bags. We've been missing out..

Eric keeps the blade slick, while Danny cuts into the foundation.

Cards is in town, and he brought his fully dipped Back Smiths with him.

Dan wants to be my new poster child... I think he's got the job.

The DIY fundraiser went off without a hitch. Thanks everyone for showing your support!

 

T-Rex boosting this Tailgrab with ease.

How do you Invert the Volcano? like this...

Prepping for the big moment; the buggie showed up, and we were still frantically trying to chisel away the concrete.

Two days later, the first session went down. 

Al Partanen, from start to finish, made this quarter pipe what it is. Big thanks to Al and Peacock for coming out and contributing to the spot, we appreciate it more than you'll ever know!

Since Al was filming a Front Blunt trick-tip, Mike Vasquez got some inspiration himself.
