Big congratulations to James Kelly for ripping it up at the Catalina Island Classic and taking home the win. Our ambassador Patrick Switzer hustled his way to second place, with Alex Tongue rounding out the podium.
Check out some of Mark Golter’s photos of the event after the jump.

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].
