Here’s that mix of street and hill mobbing. The crew still hangs out together in the Bay Area and have continued to inspire the Comet brand for close to a decade now.

Flashback: Danger Bay to LA 2008: Part 1

Posted on February 24, 2011

After a rowdy Danger Bay race weekend a crew of us piled into the Mercado van for a road trip down to LA while skating every spot we could fit in.  It may only be 3 years ago but it’s rad to look back and see how much the skill level has risen. The vibe hasn’t changed though. It’s still about a group of friends getting together and shredding what they can for the love of skateboarding.
