Time for another Jam -- by popular demand! It's ASR Show weekend and lots of people will be in town for the show.


(Flyer pics - from top left - Keith Butterfield, Kirby Cox, Kevin Harris & Richy Carrasco -- action shots from the Sept 2008 ASR Jam)

What: Freestyle SK8 Jam
When: Sunday, Jan 25, 2009 12 Noon
Where: San Diego Downtown Embarcadero (waterfront boardwalk)

Show ends on Saturday so Sunday is a free day. Don't go home early -- stay and skate with us.

Here's a link to google maps with the satellite view -- Google Satellite view

This one has directions using the Convention Center (ASR Show locale) as a point of reference: Directions from Convention Center

It won't be hard to find us once you are in the right vicinity. It's possible to reach on your skate from the Convention Center area if you don't have a car. Drive or carpool if you can is my recommendation.

Gah if only my car wasn't toast still :'(

I'll be at the session at the Embarcadero. I already booked my flight to spend a week out in California around that time. Jenna and I are just trying to figure out a way into the ASR. I didn't realize it was an industry-only thing.

wish i could make it but unfortunately it's too far away

Looks like it will be good jam weather on Sunday.

Reminder -- I'll have the SK8KINGS hotline number referring to my cell phone so if you need hep -- give a call. 714-636-7308
