Home Events Competitions Story by Brian WeisEdit by Brad Osantoski Here in Michigan for the fourth consecutive year a „Snowy Day in the Mitten“ contest has came and past just as the holidays. As the saying goes everything gets better with age and this contest continued to prove that true.This year we moved the event to the Modern Skatepark in Grand Rapids, MI and people from all over the state (even beyond) came out to blade and watch the action go down.Every year this contest out does the last and this year was no exception. What can I say, we had over 30 competitors and raised $563 for a first place purse, which isn’t too shabby for a nights work.Everyone killed it and I could go through every trick in every round and tell you how dope Michigan blading is but thanks to a select few you can watch all the action go down for yourself in the edit below. Enjoy and stay tuned for a „Day in the Mitten“ contest summer 2011…www.worldrollingseries.comhttp://www.adayinthemitten.blogspot.com/Results:Edward GilleyEric LabanCody BoulayScott DawdaCharlie SparksMatt OsantoskiJacob CawleyAndrew KoutsJoe HawkeyTanner HuizingaBig thanks you’s to Chris Couture, the judges Adam Niemara, Josh Jones, Mikey Blair, Charlie Pettit, the DJ’s Derek Bell and James Fisher.
