Skateboarding
Immediately after the finals–before the results were revealed–the Rockstar Energy Best Trick contest was underway, and chaos ensued. With $2,000 bucks on the line, everyone was hungry to make a trick and pocket the cash. And we do mean EVERYone.
The Best Trick event took place on the Rockstar 6-stair handrail setup, featuring curved handrails on the sides and a third going straight down the middle. Open to ALL of the contestants from the weekend, the mayhem could hardly be controlled as the masses swarmed the set.
In the end, $2,000 was awarded to Junseung Lee for his heelflip blunt slide to bigspin out, two $500 wads of bonus bucks were also dished out to Deyvid Tuesta Mota for his nollie 270 heelflip back lipslide (!) and to Steven Vasquez for landing a bigflip to bluntslide.
Congrats to everyone that jumped in, and especially those that were able to pull something off amongst the mayhem. Here are as many of the makes that we could capture in the chaos. Enjoy.
