Dew Tour 2012 - San Francisco

We had the luxury of flying up to see the Dew Tour in San Francisco last weekend. Four of the ten riders on our team made the finals.

A couple of us flew out of Long Beach early Saturday morning. The semi finals started at 10:30 that morning. We got our VIP passes and made it just in time to see the action begin.

The finals began at about noon and lasted just under an hour. These are the results; 1) Nyjah Huston, 2) Torey Pudwill 3) Paul Rodriguez

After they announced the winner, Lil Wayne performed two songs live.

The next day, Sunday, was the "Downhill Street Course." This course was insane! The city closed down about a mile of their streets and dedicated them to this street course. It contained rural and urban obstacles such as storage containers, flat bed trucks, road barriers, dump bins, etc.

Yes, the skaters could launch over cars!
