Great weather, beautiful women, amazing Canadian hospitality, insane skating, and one of the gnarliest slams of all-time. This one had it all, with Alex Sorgente taking home the prize. Chalk up another epic contest to Vans.

Chris Russell takes his transition talents to the concrete walls of the Channel St. in this clip for Independent trucks.

Garric Ray comes through with this week's 'five' of Cody Lockwood, Frank Shaw, Chris Russell, Rick Fabro, and Ben Raybourn.

From skate legends to psycho youth, the art of transitions is alive and well as shown in this montage of deep-dish stunts. Only one way to learn to ride pits this gnarly—get in there!
