Cruised out to NYC on Friday to link up with the Boston homies in NY for the weekend. Saturday we hit the Don of the streets jam which was put together by Austin Augie. He killed it on so many levels with this contest.
Vauxhall Jam was a good day, but unfortunately got cut short due to the usually tricky British weather. And by cut short I mean a torrential downpour which led to the jumps being unridable and everyone huddling under the tarps. Nevertheless, Parky, Tom and the whole crew have a solid spot and the days they open their spot to everyone is always with welcome arms. Can't ask for anything more!
Our very own exclusive video from Raul Jula is here! Let's check it out...
