Quint's Crazy Adventure.....

Yesterday the good folks at Red Bull put on the New York City "Snow Scrappers" event. Being the respectable media outlet we are here at AFTER THE X, we had to go check it out and report back to you...

... the ramp was sick... from the JMZ train on the Williamsburg bridge you could see the slope leading up to the hit... it was like 120 feet tall...

It was like impossible to catch a shot of the riders going down. They were riding way fast. And the VIP media shit was wicked close...



Retahded Close to the ramp...



Wicked Close To All The Sick Pros...


So then I see this VIP line on a red carpet, leading up to a sick yacht. So I decide I'm going to get on that shit... I met these 2 dudes that work for a skate shop in Brooklyn... they know a dude that knows a guy that works for Burton. We get to the front of this line after like 15 minutes... then for some reason they let me on without even looking for a VIP pass or anything.

The boat had windows looking out to the ramp, but they were mad cloudy... cause it was hot up in that mug with all the people keeping nice and warm with free Dos Equis and Red Bull and vodka and shit...

... plus there were plasmas to watch the action on...
