Mallard just got back from (okay, it was a few days) sponsoring prizes at the Crossroads Skate Shop in Ogden. Awesome competition, awesome skaters, awesome indoor skate park, awesome guys running the place, and the whole idea behind Crossroads is phenomenal. (Yeah, that’s right, I just used 4 “awesome’s” in the same sentence.)
Crossroads prides itself on being a completely drug-free skate zone, and a refuge for skaters all over the state of Utah. I was even reading on the “Park Rules” bulletin that any references to drugs, verbally, or otherwise will result in being tossed out. Pretty sick!
Mallard gave away some awesome skate gear, including decks, shirts, and stickers, oh wait, we forgot those. Dangit! Anyway, everyone was stoked about our shirts and decks, and we plan on sponsoring another Crossroads skate competition in the future.
Check out the video and pictures below. They’re not the best quality, but I did the best with what I had (my camera phone). Okay, okay! I did have my nice, big camera. I just felt too much like a Sports Mom, so I put it in my back pocket and didn’t take the good pictures that I should have.
(The last trick on this video is pretty nuts. Mallard is considering offering the kid a sponsorship.)
Yo guys my name is Eric and i skated in the comp that day! i won 2 of ur boards for best tricks (like the overcrook up above) there sick! that was a way fun day
What’s up, Eric!
You did awesome at that comp, and that was a sick trick you did near the end. That’s you in the video I took, right? Do you have any skate videos on YouTube or anything? We’d love to check them out. Keep it up.
