Burnout: Peter Hewitt Weekend
2/26/2024
The Antihero team descended into San Diego to rip it up and help celebrate the awesome force which is Peter F—in’ Hewitt. A few grinds, a few laughs and a big blow-out photo show with a special video and musical guest made this bash one for the history books. Who should we celebrate next?
Relaxing under the bridge. Look who made it out!
Even the SOTYs step carefully when warming up at Washington Street
Patented chainsaw action, straight out the gate
Gus tries his luck on the piano keys with a straight-armed hand turn. Permission to rip, Chef?
Brings your Legos, if you got em ….
GT survives a corner air, Thank God
Raining Beers, fastplant in the corner
Chris Cope is definitely a good buddy of Peter AND Washington Street
Scrapin’ it out!
Straight-legged frontal, but Raney wants more
What could he be thinking??
Ah shit! One-eighty nosegrind the seat under Emag’s watchful eye
Who says there’s no hip-hop under that bridge
Another session survived
Story time under the stars. HBD Peter
Rise ’n’ shine with the friendly faces at the infamous OB park
Anything that rolls …. Bring it!
Dogs, bikes, get in touch with your feelings in that gritty pit
Here we go …
Schmitty made it!
Definitely Polarizer country. Frank tries his luck
Ceddy made it!
Knucks line up in the shade, already heating up
Grimple test pilot Michael “Mooks” Morris frontals a lunch tray among many other maneuvers
Gnarcel made it!
Lefty shows a local’s dominance
Watching Wes float around that place is a treat
Cranny and Neil brandish their weapons
The elusive self-staple gun! Innovation lives in Ocean Beach!
TNT pulled up for a little slash and dash
For some reason, Gus decided to turn this mellow chortle sesh into a handrail mission of max destruction
He and Grant both!
The set up …
And the crooks!
That’s it! Shut it down!
SHUT! IT! DOWN!
Over to the blinding sun of the City Heights park
Those shadow lines will trip you the fuck out. Too late for Cope
Spidey-influenced
Cedric stares into the sun to slap a long feeble fakie over the seat
Marcel stomped crails, trucks a wigglin’
And the most excellent of eggs. Great to see you!
Raney has literally no competition when it comes to Slelmasky Smithverts. Literally none
And then Gus once again put a cork in it ––this time ollieing into a back tail over the seat from the deck. Solid recruit
They both earned a little nap time before the big shindig
Winter skies at the Bread and Salt gallery
Early birds inspecting the worms
We had photos from all the Thrasher greats plus original Hewitt-themed artwork from Neil Blender, Sam Hitz and Lance Mountain
True fans will know that this whole show is an extension of the 22-page Hewitt article in the new issue. Thank you, true fans
We had tons of Hewitt mags old and new to pass out. Dylan came across a classic Mike Sinclair Zorlac ad from 1998
We also had prints for the guests to take home. Ray picks out a teenaged Peter blasting a boneless. Same style as today, right?!
We found a whole box of Pete’s 1998 cover at the plant. Like gold!
OGs Miki Vuckovich and Bob Pribble roll in
Lannie Rhoades gets a hug from Jessica Hammeke and the kids. Joe’s photos were everywhere!
You seen that Jordan Thackery Cold Call??
And then the guest of honor arrives!
No hug better than a Bones Brigade hug
Strople comes in for his
Let the good times begin!
Riding high: GT and Lan Man
Tony finds himself in Luke Ogden’s epic loop disaster shot
OGs … everywhere!
Sean loses his mind over this Maui Babe photo
Wallflower Galina checks the flicks
Rockers, ready to roll
Vert legends and the ladies who love them
A Salba original from the man himself. Very nice
The radical rabbi Brandon Perelson with his crew
Blunt Steel’s Rene Pacheco and Blockhead Dave Bergthold
Greyson’s sweatshirt has been redacted
Innovators: McKay and Blender
Buck, Zach and Christ. Nice!
Hosoi was Peter’s first sponsor
Former Vampire Darren with Pack Rat’s Mikey
Drink up! The fine beer from Dave at New Belgium is free all night!
‘No … it’s SOUTH of San Jose! You gotta keep driving SOUTH!’
Inspecting the record
GT and Charno chugging a delicious Open Beer. It’s a wonderful beverage!
Getting a photo with these two is a comedy of weirdness. Thank you for your patience
All ages!
Shea and Meg are feeling cooler already!
SD locs Gigi and Ed. Thanks for stopping by
Surfing’s Joel Tudor!
The Richards made it!
Lady Meek and Mami Tezuka. I asked her. Her first name is actually Lady
Archer gets high on his own supply ––tomato style!
Ok, quiet down … time for the VIDEO!
A best of Peter Hewitt made by Schmitty. This is gonna be good
But first … a few words from Buddy!
Huzzah! We’ll get it on the site very soon, BTW
Pete and the folks
A night to remember! Thank you, everyone!
Oh shit! Special music guest Billy Rubin is about to play
A supergroup of sorts starring Ray Barbee, Paul Wittman, Ryan Maddox and Lance Mountain
They even played a Prince song
Which is probably what got the Beres brothers so fired up
Rye eventually cleared the pit with his patented street sweeper maneuver
Real great. Thanks for putting it together, Lance!
The Boulder Dicks: Tex, Andy, Eric, Melissa and Robbie. It should be noted that Melissa is only a Dick by marriage
The Tait Roelofs! I’m coming over!
Christian gets a selfie with Chrome Digital’s Shad who was kind enough to sponsor the show with their excellent prints. Thank you, sir!
Photo legend Lance Dawes holds court beside the bun racks
Filmmaker April Jones and artist Kristi Sanders with the inventor of the seatbelt air. We have fun
Oh wow! Cara-beth Burnside made it
F-Troop alumni Tod Swank and Steve Bailey hatching plans
The short, the tall, the bearded … everyone had a blast
Professor Schmitt with his favorite photo from the article. Mine too
And this was all just to honor one of the amazing people that makes skateboarding so special ––Peter Hewitt. Thanks to Indy, Antihero, Chrome Digital, New Belgium, Volcom and the Thrasher crew for putting it all together. A very epic night.
