Stoked Achievement Award goes to Tony Hawk,

Went to the Stoked mentoring dinner the other eve-- where they were honoring Tony Hawk. I was crazy rush-rush that night, but was great to see Sal and Steve--and see the fruits of all the hard work they do.  As you can see-- by the flick of me and Steve, I should stop trying to be cute and shoot pictures of myself and friends.
