It was that time of the year last night when the Transworld Skateboard Magazine had their 15th annual award show in Hollywood,CA. This is probably one of the rare nights when skateboarding as a whole comes out together to celebrate a years worth of skating in all forms. Young and old it doesn’t matter on this night, we are all skateboarders sharing this common bond with some good times and a new video from Transworld to end the night. I rolled out by myself simply because all the people I know would already be out there. Needless to say it was packed as usual and I floated around saying hi to all the smiling faces and snapping some flicks in the process, so check out below to see what I got.

Walked in to find Muska as the d.j. for the night

Let it begin
Santa Cruz won the Skate and Create category
As anyone would imagine The Girl/Chocolate teams Pretty Sweet won for best video
And DGK won for best team
But the highlight of the evening was Tommy Guerrero accepting his Legend award and calling for all street skaters to get on stage with him.
