If you like skateboarding, the Top Gun soundtrack, and some random 5 second video of a cute dog taken with a wide-angle lens, well, holy shit, this post was made for you.

We made it out to Toad & Salmon's 6th Annual Chili Bowl at Potrero del Sol and it was, per usual, a solid time.  While it didn't feature the blood geysers and beer balloons of years past, it was packed with quality skateboarding, tallcans, chili, excitement on Heckle Hill, and cursing from the announcers.  Unfortunately, we won't be able to put together a good video of the action until early next week (be sure to come back and visit), but in the meantime, you can wet your appetite with this lazy video of the footage I took on the crappy camera or check out the photos I posted to flickr:

Also, here's a rad snap of Evelyn Abad fucking up the women's division:

Paperboying around Market, 360s, one handed wheelies, hating on FedEx trucks and a random shot of a hipster walking a small dog.  The most authentic commute home imaginable.
