Vans threw a big contest last weekend with a bunch of skaters you don’t usually associate with the words “organized competition.” Tyler Bledsoe, Breana Geering, Taylor Kirby, Austyn Gillette, Simon Bannerot, Mason Silva and hella more throw down the gauntlet for some fun in the OC sun.

Last Thursday, New Balance threw one hell of a party in honor of Foy's first shoe. The night was fueled by an endless supply of high-class snacks and an open bar at what might be the world’s fanciest bowling alley.

Another new Nike video?! Yep, Trust Fall premiered last Friday in Hollywood, chock-a-block with skateboarding’s glitterati.

This was the final Grotto Lotto and nobody held back—Joe Brook got the flicks and everybody got the tricks. Farewell, Rev park! Nothing gold can stay.

Mason enters a new chapter in his skate career with a bit of uncertainty. There are, however, zero doubts about his work ethic and ability.

From Euro dream spots to the Newell Street alley, this new star-studded vid from Spitfire burns bright as hell.
