Beverly Game of Skate

Thanks to everyone who came out Sunday to the Game of Skate at the Beverly Park. 42 people ended up throwing $3.00 each into the pot that we then split up to use as prize money. The wind was definitely a factor but was an equal disadvantage to everyone. The 42 got whittled down to a final four Matt Lane, Nick Fuller-Porter, Pat Hickey and John Desimas. The final match up of the day ended up being Pat Hickey Vs. John Desimas after Nick and Matt played for third. In the end it was Pat Hickey at the top of the heap. Pat ended up with $60.00 cash a Real/Focus collabo Deck, a hand cut Eastern Boarder cruiser deck, Mixed Effect and Greater Boston DVDs, some stuff from DVS including a flask and a Scarehouse shirt. John took home $40.00 for second and also got a couple DVDs and some DVS stuff and Nick ended up taking third and got whatever cash was left (about $15.00 and a handful of change) a Greater Boston DVD and some misc. DVS stuff.

After the Game Of Skate we did a best trick jam on the bench and after about a dozen people sessioned the bench for about 20 minutes or so we called it in favor of Geoff Laskey who also got hand cut EB cruiser deck. After we wrapped things up some of us headed up to Rye for Brace Jam.

Check back soon, I may post up video of both the G.O.S. and Brace Jam.

Huge thanks to Rob Pontes, Real and DVS, Kevin Leslie, Al Pechilas, Chris Sharp for helping out. Brandon and everyone at the McPherson Youth Center for letting us use the park and basketball courts and Daijel White for taking some photos.
