Vu and Sevenfold Game of Skate
Rowe and I have been to a lot of cities this summer to cover, and be apart of this summer's skate contests. After traveling to big corporate contests, skater run contests, and even a billionaire’s contests, nothing beats a home town shop contest. It's good to be back home in Baltimore to hang out at the first ever Sevenfold Skateboards/ Vu Skateshop game of skate.Vu skateboard shop (7118Harford rd. Baltimore, Maryland 21234) wow, that was a shameless plug!
No credentials were needed, only a skateboard and an appetite. The ground was shitty, the grill was hot with food for vegans and carnivores alike. My longtime friend, Chris from Sevenfold was holding it down with a megaphone. Aaron from Outsiders Skateboards was the man to impress as he was the legitimacy judge to make sure that no sloppy tricks went down. It was a local event but drew skaters from all nine corners of the Maryland skate scene. All skateboard diplomats represented their boarders, I am talking dudes from Waldorf came up to throw down. The Stalefish Boardshop crew came creeping down from Harford county on the come up with some blazing competition not to go unnoticed. My good buddy David Stuck was shooting photos of the whole thing like they were about to take his camera away. I personally liked his photos of the chef, yours truly. To check out more photos click the photo to the right.
After the smoke from the grill cleared Dan Corigan was the winner. Congrats buddy you deserve it.
On another note it's no easy task hosting one of these things. So thanks go to Gary Smith and Chris at Vu for holding it down and doing an awesome job bringing the local skate community together in a positive way. These guys put the skaters first and don't nickel and dime the kids out of every red cent. Greedy skate shop owner you know who you are!
