An amazing opportunity cross our way when we received the invitation to attend an event at the most famous Skate Spot/Training Facility in the industry, “The Berrics”. Ken Mishima was the connection maker and we were more than excited to go check out this place that has given so much great footage and innovation in such a short period of time. Run by Erick Koston and Steve Berra, this place is probably the most well known skate facility in the world and it’s popularity is increasing everyday.
We got there early and walked our way inside of the place and saw the perfection on every single obstacle construction, everywhere we looked had the right amount of space, run way, trannie, high and smoothness.
straight to the bar and ready to shoot some photos with our friends we took possesion of the center ledge to watch the show (Darker My Love Band) and to dream of the tricks we would be able to do in every spot when the time to skate that place will come (keeping my hopes up).
A great night, the band was really… not my kind of music but I am sure people enjoyed it (some dancing chikies and emo dudes). Overall, it was nice to be there and see in person the place where some of the Skateboarding history has been written lattely, and of course it’s always nice to have a weekday to spend with our friends besides the usual weekend deal.
Special Thanks to Jason King and Ken Mishima for the invitation. Here are some pics of the NIGHT.

I don't like Roaches, specially when they try to drink my BEER at the end of the night.
