Skull Candy in Costa Mesa not only hosted this thing, but they even turned on the brand-appropriate ambiance. Casual Fridays rule

First sight of the night, we got friends from AZ Brandon Garrity and Cody Long. Hope he’s shooting that magic ISO 128000 film in that cowboy camera

Oh, hello there, April ‘24 issue. Dakota’s also got a killer feature in this one, but you already know that, dear subscriber

Dakota’s fellow road dog Leo Romero has somethin’ sweet in store. Or this is just where he keeps his shit

Biggest mustache in the building

Damn, we got a posse…and some solid product posters

What made you think South Carolina’s Jaime Owens wasn’t a Mets fan?

A Super Co bro, fellow man of the mustache and what we assume is good company all came to witness the hammers

Costa Mesa skate event?! You know Bublitz is gonna check it. Actually he probably misses a few, what with the baby and all

Part skate shoe, part chiller, hell, it worked for Stefan

Smile if you’ve clocked some miles in the Yeto van. Tim Aguilar and Jeremy Leabres know it well

Oh yeah, he uses that axe! Leo’s band Travesura puts on a hell of a show

As classic as the E Major chord

The stance of a seasoned professional

Shout out Drink Weird with the BGPs

More Tum Yeto bros! Lensman Don Luong and Aidan Campbell braved the 30-minute drive over

What about the Emerica fam? Yeah, they made it—starting with Jon and Tyler

Then with more in-house and out-street personnel, we got Michael, Don and Figgy

Justin Regan and Jeff Henderson know a thing or about putting these nights together

Bringing company is essential

Bronzed baby shoes? Nah, this grown-up shoe stays gold

Well deserved! Now let’s watch the thing that got him that hardware

Looks good in green too

Student and master? Mentee and mentor? Maybe just good ol’ boys that hit the road?

Either way, Braden gives the man his flowers

Always on the event beat, Dylan Christopher from the mag knows how to project a thing

God of the edit bay Jon Miner links up with his longtime collaborator Spanky

“I never thought this night would ever be, this close to me”

Well done, you two!

And you two! Damn, we had heavy crowd tonight. Always good to see the scene show up for the ones that put in the work and, holy shit, did Dakota do exactly that. Give him a honk when you see him in the driver’s seat
