Day Two in Barcelona: Beach Lurk, Shoe Nerding, and Raekwon Show ...

After an all day street mission in Barcelona on Friday, Saturday all we did was hang out at the beach and check out a presentation by P-Rod and friends on how he got ideas for his new shoe. After that, we all went back to the hotel to watch the three-minute video clips each of the eight talented filmers produced that were with us on each team. I'm proud to even just be around so many people that are so good at what they do. The night ended with a Raekwon show in a serious hotbox at the hotel. A few hours after that show ended this morning at about 2am, I was on a plane home to Tampa where I am now at 6pm. What amazing jetsetting. Thanks again to Nike SB for hospitality, good times, and all the new friends from around the world I made. Here's a few minutes of chill footage from my phone: Day Two in Barcelona: Beach Lurk, Shoe Nerding, and Raekwon Show . The What's Up Blog Archives Click here for the archives. The What's Up Column at SPoT chronicles everything that goes on here at SPoT and the other events we do around the world through SPoTlight Productions, our skateboarding events company. It's also littered with opinions on random things in skateboarding and other adventures from our travels like nightlife and plain old tourist sightseeing. Occasionally, there's even some skate business talk and industry banter and news. It's primarily written by Rob Meronek, skating for 20+ years and working at the Park full time since 2001. Security is super tight, credentials are required for any and all video and photo use, even more credentials are needed to pick your nose or fart, hot dogs and a beer runs $20, and every corner you turn you got Johnny Action Sports telling you how core and grassroots his wack new crap is. You better get tickets now!!! Just kidding! This is what Damn Am is: There is no suckurity. There are no special passes. If you want to shoot, just stay out of the way and you're good. There's free food and drink all weekend, and it's a lot better than hot dogs. No "Action Sports" - this is just skateboarding. While getting a spot to skate in the Contest is a bit of a fight, there are no tickets for spectators. Everyone is welcome, everything is free, there is no VIP because we are all VIP. Please wear a costume on Sunday because we will all be fully geared up in something crazy. Friday and Saturday are both Qualifiers, Sunday is Semi-Finals and Finals. Full schedule is here .
