ROBBIE IS PRO! He was scheduled in the last run of the day, but that jam happened to have just him, Late Nite, and Justin Modica and mid way through the run the entire park swamped him surprising him with his first ever pro boards from REAL!

After a perfect day out at the park it was time for the PHXAM After Party presented by KR3W and Drunk Dom & Roaches kicked things off

Figgy and Nuge’s band Arctic got things going before the Pyramid Country video premiere

Ghostface Killah had surprises up his sleeve all night with an epic set and even called up this dude from the crowd who took The Pressroom to 11

Ghost also brought out fellow WU member Killa Priest for the rest of his set

The final surprise of the night was the Mariachi Caballeros getting called onto the stage to perform hits with Ghostface
This after party was one we won’t soon forget!
