MAKE IT COUNT WINNERS SKATE THE BERRICS
On International Go Skateboarding Day, the winners of the MAKE IT COUNT contest series were treated to a sesh at The Berrics. Also in attendance were Chad Tim Tim, Darrell Stanton, Mark Appleyard, Nyjah Huston and Nick Garcia. The level of skateboarding that went down is mind-blowing, especially when you consider the schedule of the winners’ previous week. If they weren’t in a plane or van, they were skating a contest, shredding a park or hiking a mountain.
Congratulations and thanks to all of the winners. Extra special thanks and congratulations to Julian Christianson. His blend of ability and humility are an inspiration.
