Baker has a really good (and sneaky) way of letting their ams know when they're goin' pro! Rather than give the am an advance heads up and let him slowly get used to the idea of being pro, they surprise the shit out of him with all his friends and fellow Baker team members at a party in his honor.

Braydon Szafranski was no different. He had recently missed a few flights to return home from Australia, so Baker boss Andrew Reynolds stressed to him that he really needed to be home by Friday, April 7 for an important Baker party at Brooklyn Projects skate shop in Hollywood. But Drew didn’t tell Braydon what the party was for. Somehow, Braydon made it home Friday and showed up at the party that night.

And he's lucky he did, as the shop was full of Braydon's friends, family and…his new pro deck! Everyone jumped on Braydon when he walked in, and the look on his face when he realized what was going on was priceless. Robin from Baker set the whole thing up, and hired girls to serve up drinks and wear skimpy outfits that said "Braydon" on their chests and "Szafranski" on their butts. What a night!
Braydon’s first Baker deck will be in shops soon, so go out and set one up. Congratulations, Braydon. You’ve made the big time!

Haha, that's great! Looks like a real good time. I wonder if there was a single picture taken of Braydon without a Budwiser in his hand.
thats fucking illlll.
Old news
yes he's finally pro, i knew his part from baker 3 was amazing and it would turn him pro. they should have turn atwuan at the same time because he deserves to be one too. maybe next year.....
That's good news!
But hey, what's the EMB hacker situation?
Sweet hes pretty old to still be an am, or at least looks too old to be one. So now he actually makes sense to me! Plus he had a pretty sweet part in Baker 3
Yeah, really old news...posted on the first work day after the party.
i know this from like a week ago
No one cares if you know this from a week ago, some are just learning now he's gone pro. Congrats Braydon
Uh sorry bro, but the party was on April 7th. You can't have known about him being at the party and all the girls and shit, unless you're JustinB.
FUCK YEAH, baker is the shit for having a party like that and surprising him. I mean imagine how happy he probably was. Thats fuckin awsome I hope he had the best fuckin time of his life. Just reading about this just now, put the biggest smile on my face.
Andrew Reynolds really knows how to make someone happy, thats so fuckin sick.
I'm glad that they finally put Braydon on the pro status. Good job
