the Scene Attack’s Return Saw four crews sprawled across the streets of Austin, Texas, in pursuit of an edit worthy of the $6,000 in prizes—heavy pocket change to start the year off right. Cons brought in an elite judges panel of legends, including Louie Lopez, Aaron Herrington and Ryan Townley. The premiere and big-check ceremony went down at No-Comply’s 17th anniversary party. Get a look at all the clips and flicks the scene stacked during its attack. —Dylan Makar

Max Taylor’s Tough Lough was awarded Best Video and Skit with his Brad-Paisley-backed “I’m Gonna Miss Her” ode featuring Cosmo and Madison. If you know classic country hits, you’d be surprised this hasn’t already been done. Reese Barton got the MVP, Trey Wade stacked the Best Trick, Alex Martinez got the Honorable Mention, and Igna Arrigada had the Best Vibe. Shoutout to all the filmers, skaters, photographers and homies who put a whole lot of blood, sweat and cheer into their projects.
Big thanks to Converse for bringing this opportunity to the great state of Texas and No-Comply Skateshop for being the center of it all. Y’all come back soon now!
