Long Lines for Old Men

Christian Hosoi and Tony Alva - Vans Store Opening Portland

Portland skaters rock. Tony Alva and Christian Hosoi were stoked on the turnout for their autograph signing at the newly opened Vans store in the Lloyd Center. We snapped a few pics and hob-knobbed with some local legends as well. Check out the pics after the turn.

  • COOL! I am glad you guys got to go! The Denver signing rocked as well. Long line, endless stoke! I drove 250 miles to see them in Denver, it was totally worth it. Thanks for the tip Rich!

  • Thanks for the pic of Wally and I. I didn’t have a recent one of the two of us together. Good to see you, Kathryn
