Brampton comp 4 story

This year Brampton Comp was bigger than ever. Being the fourth time around, I have been able to work out a lot of other issues. And luckily for me, I had the additional help of Corey Grantham to handle promotion and marketing. I’m extremely happy with the way things turned out this year, and I couldn’t have done it without his help. My RollToronto guys also put in a bunch of effort, and came up with the idea of adding a grindbox to the event. Steve Kiley put in a lot of work to design and construct a perfect, solid, grindbox.

On May 16th here in Toronto, we were fortunate enough to have one of the warmest days of the season. Brampton Comp 4 went down without a hitch, and I’m sure almost everyone had a good time. This year we registered with WRS, giving the top 10 in pro a place in the official standings. I was amazed at the level of skating this year, and can’t wait for next year’s event. Here are the official results:

Amateur Event
1st Pierre Olivier
2nd Alex Armbruster3rd Adam Petrov
4th Tyler Hantor
5th Jeremy Quirion

Pro Event
1st Mike Lukewich
2nd Guy Crawford
3rd Jerry Butler
4th Nate Taylor
5th Kevin Lapierre
6th Mike David
7th Danny Beer
8th Benedict Chevrier
9th AJ Delong
10th Hans Hirsbrunner
