Thanks to everyone who came out for the City of Charlevoix McSauba/Skatepark Comp. Laura Stebe and crew put on an excellent event. Top notch riding went down, complete with BBQ and some nice Northern MI hospitality. A big thanks to Ride 45 board shop for throwing down some product, and their support for the community.

Casey Huizenga from Petoskey took first in the upperclass skateboarding comp. with some clean back-lips and front blunts on the big handrail and an almost landed huge frontside 360 ollie to flat off the top of the mini-ramp. Great style from this kid… def. keep your eyes on him.
Also impressing the crowd and taking first in his class for inline was Jordan Awrey from Gaylord. This kid is ridiculous on a pair of skis, a local ripper at Nubs and Boyne Mountain. Last but certainly not least was Tyler from Pellston, MI, who placed first in BMX. Tyler just got off a fishing boat in Alaska, and showed up to the comp with an impressive beard, and an even more impressive bag of tricks, including huge transfers over the hip and always finding the hardest lines in the park.
