Hello . . . Dubai! (part 2 the Lord of the Streets contest)

Redbull Dubai's "Lord Of The Streets" jam was definately good times. The multi-faceted counterculture event featured Skateboarding, BMX, blading, B-Boys and graffiti artists.
It was thrilling to have the opportunity to be part of this event halfway around the globe.
I am fortunate to have great friends in industry, namely Jim at DLX, Chris, Craig and Lucian at High Grade and Joey and Shrewgy at Ace- who hooked me up with a grip of product to get out to Dubai's shredders. Many thanks!
Here is just some of the goings on at LORD OF THE STREETS:
