This is the 20th Anniversary of Tampa Am. Things heated up pretty quickly. The street area was ripped all day, brewskis flowed, the bands jammed, and the bowl got hot.

While we give you a few days to vote on who you think should be Skater Of The Year, here's a look at what some of your favorite skaters think.

Hate him or love him, Nyjah is GNARLY. This footy came together in a couple weeks. Chew on that.

High-speed collisions, heavy stunts, painted faces, Playboy models, and 20k CA$H. Welcome to the 1st annual Halloween Hellride. Big ups to the winner, Ronnie Sandoval—you're gnarly, kid.

The next 3 minutes is gonna be pretty heavy. Have a seat and enjoy the ride.

Sleeping in the bushes, 105 everyday, cold rivers, Atlantic ocean, epic spots, castles, van overheating, epic food, and great hosts… Plus Grant Taylor, Peter Hewitt, and Pedro Barros. Thanks again to Diogo and Goncalo for the hospitality. Next up: Berlin.

Vans threw a contest at the Chelsea Piers Bowl and a heavy crew from around the world showed up to rip.  The rain held off, Van Doren manned the grill with free hot dogs all day and when the dust settled Lance Mountain took top honors in the masters division and Pedro Barros won the Pro.

This vid captures the fun of the road and the stoke that comes from finding new spots. But most of all, it's got some amazing skating in it. Here's Leo, Provost, Layton, Lutheran, Marks, Harmony, and the rest of the guys. As seen in the October mag.

It's tough to write a caption for skating like this. We'll try to keep it simple: David sought out the gnarliest street spots in existence and annihilated them. Mix that in with his timeless transition skills and you have one of the best parts we've ever seen.
