La Costa Skateboard Reunion

This event was so awesome - legends of skateboarding from the La Costa days, skateboarders who came after them, getting to meet people that inspired me to start skateboarding, and having the best time ever!

Lots of love to everyone there - its nice to have skateboarding "family"!
