Vans Pool Party 2015: Blog
This year marked the 10th Anniversary of the Vans Pool Party and this was the gnarliest one to date! Grosso stirring it up on the live webcast, Steve Van Doren on the grill, some of the heaviest skating to go down in the Combi! If you were there you were not disappointed. When the dust settled, Tom Schaar took first and Pedro Barros shut it down with an insane transfer from the square to the round bowl. Thanks to Vans for a great time, see you next year! —Rhino

Tumble in Tucson 2020 Photos
Some bonafide icons and a bunch of vert-hungry rippers found the desert to be a fitting place to bring the heat. Navs, Salba, Suski, Puleo, Russell and a bunch more tore the coping off the bowl or cheered as the others did. Once again, the Muscle crushed it.
