Everyone's been asking, "What went down at D7?" "What gnarly tricks did you see?" Well thanks to the always-working Harold Hunter Foundation (Harold Hunter Day was the day before this contest), we have this recap of all the heavies: Jeff Dechesare with his unthinkable 360 inward heelflips and hardflips, TJ Rogers ruling at best trick comps as he does, Na-Kel Smith not afraid to jump in and show the competitors he's still got it, locals unhappy at the crowd unsuccessfully trying to shut it down—it's all here.

Toby Ryan with the switch 360 flip, TJ Rogers with the switch frontside 360 and fakie bigspin, Daisuke Ikeda with the switch hardflip, Yoshi Tanenbaum with the backside flip and bigspin flip, Art Cordova with the hardflip, Jeff Dechesare with the inward heelflip—you get the picture. What a day in NYC.

You know the Brooklyn "Big Banks" are open now too right?

Stay tuned as the summer in NYC is just getting started. This weekend, the much-anticipated Empire Skate will be premiering at the Tribeca Film Festival.

And we'll all be at Commodore II come Thursday night!
