London calling 2








Dear Jake,

They cancelled yesterday's best trick contest in favour of the skier's comp. How's that???
Anyways, the worldcup went down as planned today. The venue was packed with beer drinking English blokes and fit ladies (beer drinking all the same). They actually made for a really motivated and loud crowd, so the riders were pumped!
Unfortunately, we had a casualty to report early when Grilo scorpioned from hell after catching his edge on the ride out of a Frontside Ten, and most likely dislocated his hip. No definite word on the injury yet, so we're hoping for the best. Get well soon again Grilo!!
The others kept going, and Peetu disappointed neither the crowd nor the Queen by taking first spot with an amazing Cab Ten and Backside Rodeo 9! On fire, that kid, and he don't stop!
To round up the team performance, Trevor made his way to London to give a concert at the venue right after the pricegiving. Trouble's supporting act of Cypress Hill tonight! Go chase money for love, then take some hits from the bong.
