This past weekend, Converse Coastal Carnage collided with the Nike US Open of Surfing for a festival in every sense of the modern definition. Huntington Beach was packed with bikinis, boarders, and body paint as the youth reigned and raged over the sunny and serene sand. The best of both boards were well represented by brand ambassadors on land and water, with live performances by TV on the Radio and Toro y Moi only adding to the energy of the sport spectacular.

As palm trees swayed and music blared, all eyes were glued on the skating stars. From rising two-sport standout Kalani David to seasoned vet Rune Glifberg, Team Converse participated as a great host in every implication. Of the Chevron?s star-studded roster, 2011 Coastal Carnage champ Tom Remillard was among four Chuck descendants to place in the top 15. Signature skater Nick Trapasso was on hand, and also on foot, as much of the field went to work in his recently released Trapasso II Ox.
