Skateboarders Love Golf: Daewon, Pudwill, Kenny Anderson, Gage Boyle and Justin Eldridge Skate the Top Golf Open
Well, it's official—skateboarders are in love with golfing right now, and the feeling appears to be mutual. Golfing's US Open is kicking off today in Los Angeles, and last night to set things off, Top Golf had a Top Golf Open at its El Segundo location. What that meant was they transformed the property into wall-to-wall LA landmarks (Venice skatepark, Santa Monica Pier, DTLA) and everything was free: Food, drinks, merch, games, driving ranges, jewelry and more.
Justin Eldrige and his The Number Thirty Three toothpick/tee brand he owns with Jeron Wilson were in charge of putting on the skate demo and hit us up to come hang and check it out. When you walk in before the venue has even opened and Daewon Song and Gage Boyle are skating the ramp with Justin putting on the green on the deck, you know they nailed it. Take a scroll through the photos to get an idea of the night we had. Thanks Justin and Lacey Bridges for having us!
Straight outta the gate, Daewon is blunting while Eldy puts.
Make that a blunt kickflip! Dae's got 'em every try.
The man with the plan (and tee/toothpicks for ya).
Alt angle.
Eldy's got a pivot to fakie even with the puffies on.
There's that style!
Blunt 360 shove in. Gage with the photo incentive.
Gage's turn. Daewon approves.
Yup! Gage getting as much air as the ramp is tall!
How Dae taps in an eagle.
Gage and Jeron chilling on the Number Thirty Three Rolls Cart.
They spared no expense! So much stuff to see and do.
Classic LA lowrider show out front.
Nice grill.
You ever play Gran Turismo?
Geek out on the cars IRL.
DJ Rhetorik (I think).
Back to the ramp. Now Eldy's trick shotting while he nose stalls.
Took a bird's eye angle from the balcony. Graf is a lil too busy to see T-Puds' back tail.
Can you find Daewon's blunt?
Back down on the deck, the light was getting good. Torey, Ollie to fakie.
Money shot! Gage Boyle frontside kickflip for the heads on the ferris wheel.
Torey can blunt kickflip out too!
Dubs and Nuge! Mad heads continued to pull up. Word was out it was the place to be.
Theotis too! Gage and DJ Runaway. Come see him Saturday in Santa Monica!
Thank You biz talks.
Choco/Girl OGs. Daniel Castillo, Eldy and Dubs.
Trying to capture Gage at the hole in one challenge with a slow shutter.
Rapid Dustin showed up! Better late than never. Took quick advantage of the banging birria tacos.
Nuge eyes up the 100 yard hole over the water. A hole in one won you tickets to the Open and a set of clubs!
Nuge came close, but the HIO eluded most.
Chocolate fam: Kenny and Justin. They had an "ultimate photo" idea we went for next.
Handed off my camera to a gentleman that was having a lot of fun. He snapped this.
Okay, here we go. Time to plan and coordinate.
Kenny back tails while Eldy puts.
Then the ultimate! Kenny got the back noseblunt while Eldy sunk the eagle with eye contact!
Not done yet! Eldy wanted a back tail while Kenny puts. Eldy's brainchild all came together!
