The finals of the Pro comp started a few minutes ago and these are the competitors that are fighting for the Bitter Cold Showdown 2011 Champion title!

The best thing about the large tradeshow at BCSD is that you get to buy your stuff from the company owners themselves. Ever had Kato Mateu help you finding the right size for your new Remz skates? Awesome.

We just spotted three different clips from the Bittercold Showdown featuring former X-Games Champion Nicky Adams, Alex Broskow and Brian Shima. Peep it.

Some amazing moves captured during Friday afternoon. You can already tell this will be yet another great BCSD!

Check out a few clips from the qualifications. The next edit is already on its way!

It's Friday night and before the Qualification Round of the 11th Annual Bitter Cold Showdown the Pro's came top shred the course before the big event Saturday afternoon.

AM qualifications just went down, here are the results. Kevin LeBron not only came in first but also scored $200 courtesy of Woodward. Congrats!

Rollers from all over Australia – Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, Tasmania and Queensland are all expected to attend. As well as a number of international skaters who are chilling in Australia as we write this article. Danny Jensen, last years champion is expected back this year to defend his title and his honour.

Razors USA was in the indoor skatepark in Amsterdam today. Although Brian Aragon and Dre Powell couldn't skate due to injuries from yesterday's Winterclash, they were making the local kids very happy by giving out autographs and just being at the park.
