Our first longboard event of the season, the Otonabee Poker-Run,
was a huge hit yesterday. Kudos to all the riders that came out and
spread the stoke. We raised $150 for the Rotary Greenway Trail and
shredded some serious gnar doing it. Everyone walked away with some
sweet Sector 9 shwag, and few stood out as champs of the mini-comps:
Cody Hughes killed the manual contest with 243 ft!
Jim Curtis reclaimed his title with the Best Slide
Peter Dalrymple-Fraser stuck the longest slide of the day at 22ft
Ryan VanGerven sped through the slalom course, and
Nik Oravec snagged the best poker hand with 4 pretty ladies!

It was a radical day for everyone.
Big ups to Sector 9 & Peterborough Longboarding for co-hosting
the event with us, and to all the riders that came out.
Keep the wheels turnin,
