Favorite Pics – Part 2
Wow, to think that this is just some of the highlights of each month. It’s amazing how much goes down here in New York on the daily. All of this doesn’t just happen on it’s own, it’ s all through the hard work of all the brands, shops, filmers, promoters and of course the skateboarders either local or visiting the best city in the world! THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR DOING WHAT YOU DO!!
