Advon Essentials Posted:"In just over a week, I’ll be heading down to Southern California for @officialmilitaryskate’s **8th Annual Veterans Day Event!**I'm honored to have been invited and beyond stoked to be part of this awesome event! I can't wait to bring my mediocre skateboarding skills down to Huntington Beach, finally check out the legendary @vans Off The Wall Skatepark in person, and most importantly, hang out with fellow veterans who share the same passion for skateboarding!
To make things even better, some seriously awesome professional skateboarders will be coming out to support the event, hang with the community, and throw down some skating of their own! And of course, @stevevandoren will be there cooking up some BBQ! Good skating, good food, and good people. Hard to beat that!
I'll also have the **@advon_essentials booth** set up with some of our very first skateboard decks and other ADVON gear! It's pretty exciting to be bringing the brand out to an event that celebrates two communities that mean so much to me.
More than anything, this event is about bringing people together, celebrating our veterans, supporting the skateboarding community, and giving back. The event benefits the nonprofit @veteranink and its mission to support veterans.
There's going to be plenty of skating, including an Interbranch Game of S.K.A.T.E., Best Trick Contest, and open skate for everyone from 8–10 PM!

If you're in Southern California, come on out! Support a great cause, watch some incredible skating, check out the vendors, grab some BBQ, and get your skate on!
I'll be there with smiles, high fives, and hopefully a kickflip or two!
**KEEP PUSHING!**"
