EPICLY TRIFE

First a shot of an Austin spot you may have seen photos of...

Part of Banana Ramp went into making this...

The two photos above were brought to you by this dude, COACH!!!

Now for the reason everyone was in Austin in the month of May, the fuckin' Chili Bowl putos...

Look, it's Gordon Eckler from Creature Skateboards entering a contest. Oh those boys at NHS will be so happy...

Toadly called each other earlier that morning...

Fuck the later'd set-up and the skin disease from hell, that fools wearin' Silo Boxers...

This is Doobie from Austin, he's pretty epic. He said next year he'll have like 40 people with chili feedin' the skaters and entering Toad and Salmons chili contest. I got a long winded interview with him on video you might find on YouTube or some shit...

Dave Watney from Louisiana putos...

This is where the dudes that were too cool to skate hung out and heckled...

Tod Prince, Gus (who stood in until Ken Fillion arrived, and Jake Nunn held it down judge-wise...

"I Toadly love you man..."

Doobie took 3rd place and received a bonus pair of Silo boxers...

Blood Wizard represent-Ben Raney took first putos...

I think this is the only photo I got of David Clark who next to Toad and Salmon was definite MVP of the trip...

If any of you care about skateboarding, Mr. Eckler got 2nd place...

For those of you living under a rock, Jimmy the Greek killed it and took home first...

"Yo Adrian!!!"

Results-wise...
