What a week. The guys at Coastal Edge were amazing hosts. Virginia Beach folks, y’all are out of your minds. Come visit Vans in SoCal anytime. I thought I should do a couple of superlatives to play us out.

Best Portrayal of US State as a Gun

Best Use of Ski Poles on a Beach

Best Use of Giant Shirt in Making One’s Torso Appear Five Feet Long

Best Hair – This awesome guy. He’s in a hard rock band, and he’s got a great sense of humor. Ladies, he’s taken. His gal is the one with the curly dark hair in the nice family group photo. Don’t step. She’ll kick your ass VA Beach style.

Sunday Ruckus

niksco — Sun, 29 Aug 2010 21:44:18 +0000

The coolest way to get around Virginia Beach has got to be this Honda Ruckus. Mark & his wife were nice enough to tell me a bit about it. I want one. Need one.

Last Night’s Party

niksco — Sun, 29 Aug 2010 21:22:59 +0000

Vans threw a rager last night at Waterman’s. Oh. My. God. Mix Master Mike absolutely killed it with DJ Eric getting the crowd warmed up. Fortunately for us, there was no prolific photographer and therefore no evidence that could be held against us in a court of law. Here’s a couple of tidbits.

And this special moment starring Simon Tabron and produced by Coco Zurita. This is how dudes get ready to party.

The Duct Tape Invitational

niksco — Sun, 29 Aug 2010 20:08:43 +0000

Joel Tudor wrapped up this fantastic longboard contest just a few minutes ago. It was really cool to watch these guys doing their thing. Hopefully, this turns out to be an annual event.

Top Spots: 1st Justin Quintal. 2nd Harrison Roach. 3rd Mike Detemple. 4th Tyler Warren.

Chevy Chase In The House

niksco — Sun, 29 Aug 2010 19:37:55 +0000

I walked up to this guy and asked him what the hell the plate was all about. He said, “There’s a cop over there that looks like Chevy Chase.” Oh. Ok. It completely makes sense for you to write a bunch of stuff on a paper plate, then.

Set Your Goals

niksco — Sun, 29 Aug 2010 19:13:08 +0000

Set Your Goals played yesterday afternoon, and Virginia Beach couldn’t quite handle it. Everyone went completely crazy. The security guys were singing along. It was fantastic. The cops made us stop the show because they’d never seen anyone moshing.

Grommet Photo Op

Awwwww! Ain’t they cute. Lil’ tiny surf champs.

Friday Highlights

niksco — Sat, 28 Aug 2010 20:23:45 +0000

Alright! Enough crappy videos. Here’s the good one. Our boy will just finished it. By the way ladies, he’s under 20 so he’s fair game for all y’all on the beach.

Many Layers of The Miss Reef Contest

niksco — Sat, 28 Aug 2010 20:12:01 +0000

The competitors came from all around the world. The guys flocked from all over Virginia Beach. The Miss Reef contest just went down a few minutes ago. To win the dream job of being a judge of the pageant, Reef started up a dance contest. I wish that big ol’ boy would’ve won. He had a lot of heart. “Oh, my gaaaaawd gurllls.”

I met this local couple while watching the contest, and they are awesome. I want to party with them. You know they got tiki torches and a band and can blast Jimmy Buffet ’til the break of dawn.
