      Steve Van Doren of Vans, and Rob "Sluggo" Boyce, Vancouverite and long-time skateboarder, both caught up with the Straight on Saturday (June 11) at the Van Doren Invitational 2015 skateboarding competition.

      The finals on Saturday afternoon were interrupted briefly by the wet weather, but it didn't stop boarders from hitting the pool at Hastings Skatepark, where the top prize of $15,000 went to Alex Sorgente.

      Check out the video to hear their thoughts on the competition and Vancouver's skateboarding scene.

      What a great event for our city! I really like the fact that it is free :)
      Vancouver has the greatest skate scene in Canada & Vancouver skaters are some are the most supportive & encouraging skaters around. If you want to learn to skate, give it a try :)
