Um, so I'm sitting here watching the XGames and am really getting excited for the ridiculous lineup Eastern Skate Supply has brought to our Skate Park. Chad Bartie is sick! It's hard not to get a little giddy to know they're all coming west to show up. Even Tim Payne is stoked :)
Aside from Chad how about Joey Pepper and Chany Jeanguenin? Um, Corey Duffel? He was the first to sign up. Love him! Hard for me not to get a little starstruck for that one - btw Bartie's killing his heat. This contest format is super flowy and exciting. Loving it. I can't say I wouldn't be stoked to have the champion skating at Expo. Not that Glifberg hasn't won our Volcom mini-ramp contest. Omar Hassan has skated it too. He's up next round.... it's his 16th start at X-Games. Oh!!! Danny Way style-- he just dropped back in after probably breaking a few ribs. Ouch.
But back to our demos - they're taking place at Team Pain's Skate Art skate park in our skate ramp. Not only are the features beautiful and open for everyone to skate, but when the floor clears for this list of pros, everyone will be watching. Click here for a video from their premiere of Skate Art at Surf Expo. Can't imagine what this year's video will be like...
