Next Year we’ll plan it right. San Jose and Santa Cruz were great. San Jose even matches what we have in the NW. The fires and Heat did not make too much of a difference although the cops in Santa Cruz were pricks to the kids in the park. Repect my authority, respect my mustache! Great people in San Jose and Santa Cruz and Grant Pass.

Can’t believe you guys drove right past the Amazon bowl in Eugene. The heaviest spot in the NW.

Masses of skating, if not people and my heaviest night of drinking was 48 ounces of PBR. 11 new spots for me - MASSIVE!

HOla, im in santa cruz right now and the fire situation is out of control, i have had 5 of my friends witness thier homes burn to the ground. As for San Jose it has finally started to cool down, but its going to get hotttt again soon. i would say it is worth coming down here to skate, we have DERBY, the NEW santa cruz park, SAN JOSE, BEN LOMAND, SCOTTS VALLEY, PACIFICA, and well you get the idea, I went to the santa cruz park yesterday and no one i mean no one was skating the bowls or pool, just a bunch of street kids, well yeah the fires are crazy and it will probobly get worse, it is predicted that on sat and sun california will again be hit by lightning storms, all we can do is cross our fingers and hang out near the garden hose,

Bummed I missed it, but it sounds like it wasn’t quite the mass excursion that past events were. Next year!
