The Clash at Clairemont went down on Saturday with a stacked roster of pro and am skateboarders throwing down for a good cause—to help fight cancer.

This was the 15th and final Vans Pool Party at the Combi Bowl in Orange, CA, and it was fired the F UP! From the Legends to the Masters to the Pros, everybody put it on the line for this one. May the fourth be with you all. 

Our guy Hambone hit up the Pool Party and brought back the goods! Check the photos and get the recap from one of the gnarliest events in skateboarding. Gonna miss ya, Combi!

Any good tradition should be allowed to mutate and evolve. This vert-ramp Rumble mixes the best parts of all different skate eras. There’s too many rippers to name here, but it's all one hell of a good time.

The Legends, Masters and Pros all descended upon the Combi Bowl for the 2018 Vans Pool Party, which coincided with Cinco de Mayo. The holiday vibe was definitely infectious and everybody got sick as F! How do these things just keep getting gnarlier?!

This year’s Pool Party was even more festive than usual as it fell on Cinco De Mayo, and the opening ceremony was kicked off with a traditional mariachi band cranking out tunes next to the bowl.

From coffins camped out on the coping to megaramp madness, the guys and gals of vertical skateboarding put on quite the show in Southern California this past weekend. Peep the insanity.

The Rumble is seven years strong and better than ever. Skate Rock, vertical destruction, and all of it fueled by the memory of P-Stone. Hell yeah!

The 7th annual Rumble in Ramona backyard ramp blowout was another one for the history books. Check out some photos here.
