The Josh Bordenses! Nice to see you guys!
Shit! It’s starting!
Tony Hawk is one of the most eloquent speakers in all of skateboarding
Seriously, he could give a TED talk at the drop of a hat. Eloquence on command
And then the boards came out...
Haha! Congrats, Clive!
These moments are always fun
Even if getting the exact photo of triumph can be challenging
Hippie vs Gator graphic. Salk is stoked!
Getting closer to the money shot. May have to do
This photo’s funny
So’s this one
Anyway, everyone was stoked
Well deserved
This would’ve been it except for that face Ben is making. Next time!
Then Clint gave his own speech
Hugs from the folks
And a spank from the bros. Then the movie started!
Later …. Holy shit! Pandemonium!
It really is amazing! Seriously, you’re gonna love it!
Loy knows what time it is!
Jake’s face, that’s how we all felt
Or at least, I wish I felt like that!
Get there while you can...

Stunned premier goers. Rodent and Dashawn were trippin’
We all were!
