Horror business.
You can have two pictures of Franky as a treat for Halloween. I wasn't sure what to expect from the demo. It was mostly the guys casually skating the park before they did the more formal show portion of the demo on the stair section. Of course, a pro casually skating a park means way better tricks than us mortals can do. Franky did a whole lot of stuff and landed his tricks fairly quickly. He did take a couple of slams, too. Also like Jamie Foy, he had lip tricks for the quarter pipes. Some of the highlights were a kickflip to frontside nosegrind on the hubba, a kickflip to late shove-it over the picnic table on the right, a Bennett grind to 360 out down the hubba, and a couple of flip tricks down the stairs. The photo is of a nollie heelflip. The other picture is of a wallie out of the bank. He did all of these tricks on his egg shaped board. Franky rips.
I kept more space in the wallie photo so you can get an idea of the park's layout. The quarter pipe wall in the back is where Foy did his frontside heelflip. Franky landed a nosepick of some sort on the quarter and Andrew Reynolds did some frontside ollies. I think that's Tiago Lemos standing on the pyramid. I know Tiago skated, but I don't think he skated a long time. He was also on the opposite side of the park so I simply missed what he was doing.
Clyde Singleton was the MC for the event. He is wearing the Champion sweatshirt on the left side of the nollie heelflip photo. Against the wall by the fence is Brandon Westgate talking to Levi Brown. Brandon didn't skate. I'm not sure on the name of the kid in the tall white t-shirt next to them as there are no titles in real life. He absolutely crushed the demo with massive pop shove-its, flip tricks, and a smooth backside 360 ollie over the picnic table.
These photos were rather drab in color so I went with the easy fix of making them BW and adding film grain.
