Boston Demo: Vans Skate Team | Skate | VANS

The 2016 Summer Vans Pro Skate Tour ends where it all began for Vans, in the Van Doren Family's hometown of Boston, Massachusetts for our demo at the Bean Town staple, Orchard Skateshop. Back on November 14th, 2015, after more than a decade of planning, the highly anticipated Lynch Family Skatepark located under the Zakim Bridge opened to unseasonably cold winds. Steve Van Doren promised The City of Boston that as soon as the weather broke he'd send the Vans Skate Team out to break in the park properly. And that's exactly what they did! The boys laid it down for the New England crowd and stacked more footage for Orchard than any other stop of the tour; a true ender-ender of a demo. Thank you to all who came out and supported the guys at each stop along the way. It was good to hang out with you all. See you on the road again soon.

Skaters in order of appearance: Chima Ferguson, Justin Henry, Tyson Peterson, Corey Glick, Daniel Lutheran, Grady Smith, Shredmaster Keith Hardy, Johnny Layton, Matt Bennett

Chicago Demo: Vans Skate Team | Skate | VANS

The Vans Skate Team set off the first stop of the Summer 2016 Vans Pro Skate Tour with a heavy session for legendary Uprise Skateshop on "Chicago's front yard" at Grant Park. Johnny Layton sparked things up to prove, in the words of Thrasher Magazine's Michael Burnett, "God damn right he's still got it." From there, our crew systemically dismantled the park with a barrage of bangers for the delight of a rabid crowd of Chi-Town locals, out-of-towners and even Corey Glick's grandparents. Next stop, Westside Skateshop in Lakewood, Ohio.
