The Exposure Intermediate vert ramp session on day one was unbelievable - so many tricks went down and lets talk about Juno with those HUGE FS and BS airs - amazing.! Anna Shea pulled off a 540 that won her $200 for best trick and we celebrated and remembered our matriarch of skateboarding, Patti McGee. it was a beautiful way to end the day together.

The Exposure Skate Tribute led by founder Amelia Brodka, for Patti McGee was so special to all of us. And it was only fitt9ing that November 2nd was proclaimed “Patti McGee Day”. Patti’s daughter Hailey was in attendance ,and love for Patti was everywhere. Bryce Wettstein sang a song about Patti and then led the skaters in doing handstands across the ramp - Patti’s signature move that landed her on the cover of LIFE Magazine. You are missed greatly Patti, but never forgotten. xo
