Pacific Drive's Take Back The Alley 2



Last weekend was one of my favorite events that goes down in my town- Pacific Drive's "Take Back The Alley" [TBA]. It's basically a block party with a miniramp jam. With good people throwing TBA and good skaters entering the jam, it has turned out to be a great day two years running.


Here is the edit of what I saw...




I'm no filmer I'm just a blogger, but I did have fun putting that together. Here are some photos I took with my fake iPhone








TBA is so much fun to watch and attend I guess everyone decided they needed to show the world with a video of the event. The first to get their video of TBA out was The Skateboard Mag, I believe they beat Shockus by 30 minutes.






I guess The Mag and Vans had some sort of involvement in TBA, here are some Photos from Vans' Flickr

Before I go here is one more take from TBA. I remember seeing this guy filming with a really good camera and wondering why didn't he try to get a better shot, I felt bad having to walk in front of him. I think he's from Cleavland and he didn't want to intrude.

Knock On Wood's take...




I gave it a shot at taking some pics with the fisheye, say hi to my thumb...






Such a good time! Thanks Jim, Chris, Truck, the whole PD crew and everyone involved in getting this thing done... YOU KILLED IT!
