After practice last night, we pushed all the riders onto a bus and headed to Hollywood for our annual Chipotle dinner. We had the projector playing tour videos and burritos filling us up. For amazing bus ride photos after the feast, check the last pictures.
The last stop on the Hometown Heroes skate tour took place at SkateLab in Simi Valley, California right outside of Los Angeles. The historical skate museum there is amazing as well as the new setup in the skatepark. Be sure to check out SkateLab when you’re in Southern California!
Ralph Rocha took third place after doing a nollie on the big gap to bank. He also did a nollie back lip the rail and switch tail down the hubba.
Jake Hill had a smooth style and was ripping everything. He took second place after landing feeble back 180 and a long nosegrind pop out on the spine. On the rail, Jake got kickflip front board and kickflip bluntslide.
Brendan Villanueva took first place. He did nollie smith and kickflip front board down the rail and hardflip down the gap. He even did a hardflip back lip on the 8 stair rail!
Back in Las Vegas for the Hometown Heroes contest, we went to SkateCity where our very own Will Pousant is a local. His fellow Hokum teammates were in the mix skating for their chance to qualify for the Hometown Heroes finals at X-Games.
Jacques Robinson had a nice style and choice of tricks. He ended up in third place after nollie flipping off the top of the quarterpipe to flat and back lipping the big rail.
Kenny Tanner was flying around doing airs and grabs all over the course, putting himself in second place. He did a front blunt on the bump to rail, tailslide down the handrail and even a backflip over the flybox.
Pip Meranto took first place after killing the course! On the bump to rail, he did back noseblunt, 270 lipslide, and frontside hurricane. He also did a nice hardflip over the pyramid.
