Chambers and BIYD Tacoma

Yesterday was a pretty busy day for everyone here at DB. Lexi Hutchings got into town Wednesday night around midnight and we were up the next morning for a session down at Chambers Creek. The Tacoma News Tribune wanted to do an article about the Dash Point Pro/Am (happening tommorrow June 26th!) so the boys (and Lexi) met up with the photographer to get some shots for the article.

Check out the article in today's paper or online here. The article that was chose was not-so flattering but we are stoked none-the-less to have some coverage for the comp.

After the Session the crew met up with the guys at the shop and got everything together for the Premiere of BIYD in Tacoma. Everyone was stoked on the video and most people walked away with some free gear from the raffle.


If you missed out on buying a tee, hoodie or board last night then head over to www.shopdbskimboards.com and get it there!

Get your last session of practice in today and we'll see you tomorrow morning at the Dash Point Pro/Am!
