Supra had their second annual Hollywood Showdown Saturday afternoon at Brooklyn Projects in Los Angeles celebrating the release of Lizard King's new shoe, the "Shredder".  

Blood Wizard premiered their latest video, Masters of Wizardry, at La Paloma theater in Encinitas Friday night.

Vert skating ain't dead. In fact, it's more evil than ever!

Screech led the way to the pool, Shorty almost died, but Merlino, Lockwood, Gregson, and Kowalski tore the place to shreds. 

Air gets caught, hands get planted, trophies get raised and Curren Caples almost has to run for his life at the Van Doren Invitational in HB.

Ten lucky skaters were pre-qualified for the VDI. For everyone else, it's a battle just to make the big show. If these are the semis, just imagine how raw the finals are gonna get!

Now that the dust has settled take a look at some of Rhino's photos from last weekend's contest at Hastings.

Great weather, beautiful women, amazing Canadian hospitality, insane skating, and one of the gnarliest slams of all-time. This one had it all, with Alex Sorgente taking home the prize. Chalk up another epic contest to Vans.

Throw a tape in the boom box and shred. No pressure skateboarding is back with the Brooklyn Projects Hollywood Throw Down.
