It was a hot day for a contest, I’m pretty sure everyone got worn out before it even started. Despite the Lava rain there was a big turnout.  The turnout was actually so big that that they had to make a on the fly rule change and some people got cut from having a second run.  With one person filming it gets a little tough, so any one out there with a decent camera lookin to join the savannahskates team, hit up aaron@savannahskates.com. Did I mention it was hot too?  The results: 1st place- Lee, 2nd place- Shirtless kid, 3rd place – Graham (hes invisible)

Compilation of throwaway and extras featuring Zak newman, Gray Vickery, Alex Thames, Justin Diamond and Andrew Edge. Filmed and edited by Aaron Lynton.

We’ve kept you waiting but now its time… Erik’s part showcases the diversity of Savannah skate spots as well as reminds you that if you play him in a game of manual skate, you’ll probably get raped…literally (you see that mustache?).  Erik has a unique approach to skating and does some complex twinkle toe shit that I will not land anytime soon if not ever. He also probably can name all the fonts used in the picture above…god damn typography lovers. So, check out Erik B a.k.a the Michigan mustache kid. Filmed and edited by: Aaron Lynton.

We know we  know its been a minute but Erik Binggeser is wrappin up the last bits of his Checkout part and its gonna be sick, in the meantime we got a Checkout part from Zak Newman. This is the skate part that came out of  my documentary “Those Other Days” (if you wanna see it get at me: aaron@savannahskates.com).  Zak is from Atlanta and if you’ve had a chance to chill or skate with him you’ll know that he’s just as laid back as his skating style.  Zak rips, and I love the spots; It’s all very nostalgic for me. I wanted to hit the classic atl spots, like foundation, peachtree marta, bellsouth, and of course I had to start off with a killer dpark section…SAV spots as well….So, check out Zak Newman.  Filmed and edited by: Aaron Lynton.

Hit up the new Bluffton Park again, heres what went down…. Skaters include: Garret Olinger, Grahm Sharts, Daves friend (sorry forgot the name), Lee Lou, Jay Scofield, Andrew Broadhead, and Jordan Lemmon. Filmed and edited by: Aaron Lynton. Look out for them seagulls…

Finally the new Bluffton park opened, so all the homies took a trip out there.  So worth the drive, its only 21 min from the bridge(garrett/andrew timed it).  It’s a bit pooly, but the park is awesome.  The only downside was the masses of kids… which was expected.  No pads, no helmets, no money. There will def be more montages coming out of this park! Skaters include: Garrett Olinger, Todd Maloy, Jay Scofield, Aaron Guerrero, Pat Crump, Dave Hargrove,  Kevin Watson, Andrew Brodhead, Marc Marron, Derek Nawrocki and Jordan Lemmon.
