This weekend,
Vans Canada's The Bunt Jam was held in
Toronto's Dunbat Park. Many big named pros came down for the two-day event which included a basketball tournament, giveaways, and amazing skateboarding.
Due to my lack of awareness, I was unable to watch the pros skating the obstacles in the event. But in the meantime I was able to grab some free hot dogs, energy drinks, and meet new, familiar, and famous faces.
Durham Region pro skater
TJ Rogers always smiling for the crowd. On and off the board, he's a true living legend.
Elissa Steamer [sitting] is a real icon in skateboarding who not only killed the contest circuit, but filmed some legendary video parts. Sadly, I was unable to meet her personally, but a big thanks to
TJ Rogers for passing my sticker for her autograph.
Other pro skaters I did get to meet were
Morgan Smith,
Alexis Lacroix,
Breana Geering,
Samarria Brevard,
Kevin "Spanky" Long and
Rick McCrank. Each one of them were very gracious to sign this sticker.
A trip to Dunbat would not be complete without a visit to
Blue Tile Lounge. These less than 50mm
Spitfire Lil Smokies and Lil Beatdowns wheels will look awesome on a retro complete I'm assembling.
Always support independently owned skate shops and I hope to see you at
The Bunt Jam 2025.
