box jam and BBQ. i dont know about you guys… but i dont think there’s much better than a good ol’ fashioned barbeque outside in the summer. throw in some rollerblading, philly’s top pros and you’ve got yourself an awesome day. the next one is coming soon already, so if you’re remotely close.. come on out. i’ll get your hamburger ready myself. photo post after the jump…
this ended up being more of a test BBQ, because of some heavy rain the day before. the next box jam is tentatively scheduled for may 13th (the end of may). we’ll be celebrating neglected truth’s 2 year anniversary, and all 3 boxes will be ready by then. (due to rain damage, we only had the up box and the slider bar ready this past weekend). be there! www.neglectedtruth.com
look at that shop… who could resist?
decent turnout despite the heavy rain the day before, and in the morning.
!! majette - true topsoul. boom.
big bad brad barnwell - sweaty
philly legend and brother to matt - rob terry came out! havent seen this dude in like 2 years! and HE’s STILL SKATING! and yo, why is malik ALWAYS lookin shady?
not gonna lie.. i have no clue what this was, but i sweat the pic. some sort of air.. maybe a fakie 5 or a 7? def anthony sereni though. sick
majette’s been training. ao topporn, 3 out.
kevin landers is another OG philly skater. fresh ao topsoul 3 out.
SK loves the exclusives™… and redbull.
ross anthony and his fresh federicks - soyale
a bunch of dudes were trying to straight jump and 180 up this gap. it wasn’t happening.
killgore: “yo, rios you WANT a redbull right??!” (so he could have two)
on a side note… how is it that redbull can just appear at events like this? with no notification whatsoever.. its like they have “extreme sports” radar or something. weird.
i ALWAYS have time to talk sneakers with sean and malik. (again.. i’d like to point out malik’s shade factor. ha)
this is a pic of ross corrupting america’s youth. no no, that’s mean. obi-wan is to luke as ross is to wake.
and let’s end this with wake… you remember how i said he was the future last week right? well here he is training on the slider bar. which for most of us is about cuff height. on him… it’s just above his knee. get um wake!
wake schepman:
ao unity…
makio…
topacid…
next one is soon! be there.
word I wish the toronto scene was …
a) half as good
b) people were half as cool
c) we had a decent friendly shop and or scene
d) you didnt have to feel as a part of some clique to even be hanging out there.
Summertime. If you have it again, I’ll definitely do a redo and head that way east instead of getting myself into some psycho shit. aha.
That looked sick, I love chill fun events like that!
HAHAHA I saw that redbull car when I was over! Might have been a part of an army of them though…
Killer event!
looks chill, wouldnt mind going to that
That looks amazing, I’d love to go to something like that, pity its never going to happen in the UK, theres only one Rollerblader run shop in the whole UK (as far as I’m aware of (ukskate.com)) and thats about 400 miles from me.
So you’re saying that it rained the day before, and the floor is dry?
America is amazing!
looks like a quality day!
i fucking love wake. that kid is amazing!
If you wanted some old guy to jump up that gap you should have just told me.
