Louie hit a new milestone with a second signature shoe for CONS. Will the biggest and baddest in LA show up to support the release? Guess you'll have to check the record from Atiba's night out.

Interesting street art. Wonder if we're gettin' close

Is that Danny Montoya and Steve Nesser? Must be the place!

Inside the venue, we get a first look at the product and a promising street little course

Jake and Bobby, thank you for your service

You gonna get some, Rye?

Well, looks like some other homies are already gettin' it

Bump to ledge? Nah, BOD's hittin' it from flat. Back Smith

Yeah, he's been to Frogtown. How can you tell?

There HE is! Lou comes through with a perfectly dipped back Smith

Dutchy's here, too! 

Brian, back with the other crook 

Skate Wizard Macey Lemus called the fuzz

Manderson's in building, firing off the feeble

New dude, Romel Torres lets loose, front-foot-wise 

These guys really like the ride-on rail. Gavo goin' switch

Krazy Frankie's here to close it out, takin' flight over the rainbow

Alexis, you know you can just do simple shit at this kinda thing? Not your style, though, we get it. Kicky front board to open and close the down rail session

Gavin, in the rafters with an FSO

Larry Bertlemann couldn't make it, but Jan's got it covered

Alva, too!

And the big stunt to end the show. Gavin, frontside air across the chasm

Pretty wild stuff. Right, Tyson?

After the demo, we got the AV portion of the night. Now let's see the faces that made the crowd

You know CONS company men James Cruickshank and Lee Berman wouldn't miss it

Standing room only tonight. CONS guys Matt and Jimmy still got the best seat in the house

Now let's get one with Alexis and Adam Binette

Slight wear on the new boots. Still shinin'

Smiles all night around Louie, like with Mike and sales master Jack Moran

Tony and Mackie between the stars

All star ain't just the name of a shoe

In the streets or at the party, it's always good to see Jeremy Leabres

Milton, Jon and Neck, you love to see 'em 

Christina came through with Eunice—the night's best dressed

All love for our local shops. Dave from Black Hole and Sean from Rose Street brought some much-needed peace

Sean knows everyone in here! Like up-and-comers Gavin and Paige

Erik and Matt, thick as thieves

Tino alone is a great sight, but Tino with a party dog takes his presence to the next level. Alexis can't resist a pup 

If only Matt had a black hat we could make a twinning joke about Jaime

Tony C got hella Vegas homies, like Fookes and Baca

Baker, Baker! Nuge and Sammy hold it down

Two of our most beloved

Heavy lineup: Daniel, Tony, Neck, Nuge and AVE

Tim Fulton got the Andersons in stereo. Wonder which speaker's louder?

The undisputed champions of the 'Gram Henry and Mel. Hopefully they're schemin' another spot video

Trevor and Jake got out of the East Coast cold for a night out. Remember to hydrate, fellas

Beautiful people everywhere, especially Tom and company

Maybe Milton already got that Ben zine

Y'all got Golden Eye?! Levon, Twuan and Neck fired up the N64

Highspeed associates Neck and Teebs

Mike and Stevie made it?! That's pretty sweet!

More Crail guys past and present, Meza and Smyth

Let's get some more friends with 'em, like Diana and Tony

Atiba, too!

You know Atiba's down with the Rose Street crew

Dickies dudes Adrian, Mike and Joe Face still enjoyin' the Honeymoon

Louie's got all his bases covered with friends from the Skate-and-Destroy delegation making it out

Best lookin' bunch of the night? Of course they're with Curren

Nuge get his shop talk with our friends at No-Comply, Familia and Rose Street

Mason, scoot over. It's a CONS thing

CONS cowgirl boots?! Could be a thing

Thought we'd miss Stephanie Moshammer and video auteur Ben Chadourne? Think again!

Mom's here! Must be time for some family photos

Let's do it by the step and repeat. First step with CONS European man Luidgi

Repeat with Francois from Vega skateshop in Paris

How about one with the video team from Louie's campaign, Bryant Inthavong and Renee Krumweide

Lana Aleixo's instrumental in making nights like this happen, of course she's gotta get a photo!

Cheers with his bike bro Jimmy Rosas

Gotta get one with his boy Ryan Lee and the gang

One with AVE? That's Fucking Awesome

Alexis solo is pretty cool

But how about we do one with her Seize the Seconds co-star?! Great!

Actually, let's get some more glasses in there

And one more with the ride-or-dies, Louie's number-one fans and biggest supporters. Skateboarding's a family affair, but so is actual family

And the ender. The parting gifts go to our loyal supporters, the Coulthard boys Oliver and Owen. Now go out and get a pair of the Louie Lopez 2—and probably one of these hoodies to complete the look
