Cameron Dowse was hanging out at his homie Bruce\u2019s ramp and decided to throw a contest. With $150 in his pocket it was run and done. Cash went to the winner. No entry fees, no special invite list, anybody who showed up and was down to have a good time was on the list. Over the years, Cam has continued to host these Camtests, each with a special twist to keep things interesting.<\/p>\n<p>In 2011, skateboarding&#8217;s good friend Dave Tuck was diagnosed with cancer and since then the Camtests have been in his honor. The 2012 event was at the legendary Pink Motel and in honor of Tuck\u2019s love for beer it was decided to make the divisions based on weight classes. This year the Camtest returned to the Pink Motel as did the weigh ins. Coping was smashed, blood was shed, a few pounds were probably lost but all in attendance gained a good time and over $3,000 was raised for cancer charities. \u2014Joe Hammeke<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/AHlWI3Y_450?rel=0&amp;showinfo=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.stokednews.com\" target=\"_blank\">Stoked News<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Camtest (that\u2019s right Camtest, not contest) originated in Boulder, CO, back in 2003.
