DC Nats Photos

So unless you live under a rock, you'd know that the DC Nationals qualifier went down this past weekend. I have been helping out with these contests for the past few years and I must admit that this was one of the better ones I've witnessed. Some truly amazing skating went down in contest itself. The best was saved for last however and we held three separate best trick contests for cash mon-ay...lets just say this: Shit went down. Big thanks to DC and Mark Regimbal for having events like this in Canada. And more thanks go out to everyone who came out and supported local skateboarding. We need you! Heres a few pics that J-Wadz snapped. Some professionaler pics should follow.

Nate went deep and got 5th.
