Vans Downtown Showdown was really good fun. It’s great seeing a contest run by skaters, designed by skaters, with some pretty big cheques for skaters. If you couldn’t make it, keep checking the blog for the next few days as more updates will appear I am sure. Anyway, here are some shots from SuperDead’s East London pub, complete with beer kegs and all. Thanks to Vans and everyone else involved for such a good time…
