X-Mas Battle Royale 2008

Wooow, it`s over & we are really happy how everything turned off.
The event was smaller than the last year, but way stronger, the park was better & the skating amazing.

Thanks to all riders, visitors, speaker, barkeepers, judges, filmers, our team, the block skatepark and the sponsors, who made the event possible again.

Watch out for our video edit in the next days.

CU next year...december 12th 2009
