Poolside in the OC

It was a pool party that started strong'DJs, free drinks, warm weather and half-naked girls dancing on the deck to Stretch Armstrong, Them Jeans, and the Royal Rumble crew. If the swimwear-clad weren't floating on plastic dragons in the pool, they were keeping it cool in the cabanas. Held at the Atrium Hotel in Orange County and hosted by WeSC, Vestal Watches, and Jack's Surf Shop, all was going smooth in the sun… But when two guys climbed the roof and made the leap into the pool, a group of inexperienced rent-a-cops feared the worst and shut the party down, despite the generally well-behaved crowd. Here are a few photos before the real cops showed up and the handcuffs came out.


A key ingredient to any successful pool party.

DJ Stretch Armstrong didn't know he had a brother until he met Future Snowboarding Magazine Photo Editor Crispin Cannon.

Big glasses, gold chains, and headbands is one style option…or you can roll like Russ of Dim Mak Records, with pink glasses and a tiger-print Speedo.

The Lady Tigra and Tiara.

If you're more interested in the gold Creative Recreations to the left than the hot, wet girls wrestling, there's something wrong with you.

Them Jeans putting some wizardry into his mix.

The Supreme x Oakley Frogskins have been the summer hit.

These rent-a-cops had been itching for some action all day. When two guys jumped off the roof into the pool, they made their move.

And when the going gets too tough for the rent-a-cops do what they do best… they call in the perma-cops.
