Late June was a stacked ten days for the Weedmaps Team — a beachside art show, ten cities of free skating, and a medal-sweeping run at X Games Sacramento. Here’s a recap of everything that went down.
June 20: AMAC x NBD Invitational
Weedmaps rolled into San Clemente for the second edition of AMAC (Art, Music, Athlete Collective), paired with the NBD Invitational. Big-wave legend Nathan Fletcher and Bruce Irons headlined, with an art gallery of Fletcher’s photography setting the scene for the night. Sporting News covered it, and the story got picked up by Yahoo Sports and Yahoo Sports Canada.
