Double Trouble MegaPost!

If you were at the Double Trouble event you know how much it ruled.
Insane skateboarding, good times, and a huge crew of friends ripped up Midtown.

Big thanks goes out to all the sponsors, especially Bob from Vans and
Bill from MoFunna, and all our friends for supporting the local skate scene.

The day took off despite some rain and fog - Thanks to our trusty Midtown roof.

First on the agenda was the O.U.T. tournament which started the day on fire... 

 Guest referee Ryan Leege held it down....

Until the feared Midtown concrete got the better of him.

 Bill from MoFunna Skateboards held it down on the mic!

 Little ripper Carter takes on Flow Trash superstar Pat Gallaher...

 Westside legends John Feick and Jake Burke battle it out.

Everyone was having a great time watching the games.

Brave souls fought valiantly but in the end there could only be one...

Results:

1st: Kyle Walczak

2nd: John Feick

 3rd and 4th: Tony Marchetti and Alex Demianiuk

Congratulations to Kyle Walczak!

The Mini Ramp & Rage Jam took off immediately after the O.U.T. showdown.

All the dudes completely killed it...

Guest judge Mike Rapaich looking good.

Slay Day Recap!

Slay Day 2011 went off like a wildfire at Wheeler this year!

Plenty of good homies, fun contests, and some heavy skating. 

A huge thanks goes out to our sponsors...

DeathWish Skateboards, Monster, and MoFunna Skateboards!

Thanks to everyone who came out and killed it on the last skate event of the summer! 

Monster hooked it up big time and kept everyone hydrated and wired to skate!

Everyone was battling their tricks on the manual pad for the first Best Trick contest...

 Taking turns wasn't really an option...

 Chaos as always.

 Kyle Walczak came out on top with a prize package from DeathWish.

MoFunna mastermind Bill Howes held his "Bangers for Bucks" 

contest on a wide variety of obstacles.

Wyatt came through with a first try treflip on the hip...

 And got himself some cash.

 Many battled for a blunt to fakie on the volcano...

 Only a few succeeded...

Kyle snagged a frontside tailslide on the hubba for some loot.

 Ryan got himself some cash for a lien to tail on the hip transfer.

The boys battled side by side crooks...

 Side by side 5-0's...

 And side by side nose manuals.

 Top Winners of the Day.

John Kromm killed the Best Line contest, 

as well as the Best Trick on the art piece and into the bank.

 Kyle owned up in Bangers for Bucks, Manual Best Trick, 

and Best Trick into the bank.

 Ryan Leege threw down in the Best Line, as well as the art piece best trick.

In the end, it was Wyatt Hotchkin receiving the All Day Slayer Award.
Wyatt killed it in every event, effortlessly threw down huge tricks, and never stopped skating.
Congratulation Wyatt! See you next year!
