The second edition of the “Killer 50-50s Pool Jam” went down September 28th-29th at the La Kantera pool in Algorta, Basque Country. Geezers from England, Germany, France, Sweden, Portugal, Basque country and USA showed up for the pool party. No contest, just a pool jam with guys that could be grandpa’s in their lazy boys watching football and drinking beers, instead, skating the gnarly pool on the beach in Algorta, drinking beers and not just talking about the days of yore, but living them. Respect to all you ‘old men’ that showed up to shred the pool. Proud to call you my friends. And thanks, gracias, eskerikk asko to Txus for organizing this killer event, without any official sponsors. See you next year. Older and better, or worse… the show must go one. Skate til death or til you’re too broke.

Sun was still blazing at 5 in the afternoon. Clive, Ron and Jeff hit up the china shop up the hill to fill the icy cooler with three 18-packs.

Gary Boodt from Santa Cruz. Shout out to Meekster who unfortunately couldn’t make it last minute… Gary also pulled an Andrecht but I was on the other side of the pool at the time, and he only did it once

Dietsches. Backside power grind mega butt shot but at least he’s got electrical tap to cover up the butt holes.

Anders Tellen. Feeble to fakie.

Our buddy Chad from California arrived the day before for a visit and a quick Spain tour so he stopped by for the weekend to have some beers/wine with the boys/men and watch some Killer 50-50s pool skating.
