Comet Skateboards just threw down an event this last weekend to celebrate the grand opening of their new retail store in Ithaca. Skaters from all over got together for the weekend, which included this awesome looking slide jam.

At the very last minute we decided we could afford as a team to all make it down to the Ithaca slide jam, to wish our friend Eric Jensen off before his big adventure. 

We would like to thank everyone at comet for being such wonderful hosts. What an amazing city and what an amazing event!!! We all hope to be back real soon. It didn’t even matter who won the contest it was just amazing to see everyone skate together.

Born in Chicago and raised on the flat Canadian prairies, it wasn’t until moving to Ontario for school in 2005 that Justus got a taste for riding skateboards down hills. Since then it’s been a bit of an obsession. He graduated with a degree in Film Studies, but spent as much time focussed on skateboarding as he did on studying. Now he’s living the good life in Oakland, California, riding his motorcycle and working as Editor-in-chief for Skate[Slate].
