Consolidated in Baja

Consolidated skateboards‘ Steve Bailey and Roberto Alemañ shot down south of the border to Baja, Mexico with Leticia and hit up a skatepark, rode horses to check a couple backyard pools, had a run in with corrupt cops, drank margaritas, and had some good times…

It didn't take Roberto and Bailey long to get cuffed and stuffed in the back of the cop car. Mexcian cops are even more corrupt than american cops, which sometimes can work in your favor. Leticia paid them off and the boys were free to ride.

The crooked cop that took my money to bail those guys out, also gave me his business card afterwards, and told me to call him.  It’s a pretty classic business card – it says to follow them on Facebook!  I took it because I told him if we got into trouble again, I was gonna call him.”  – Leticia
