Everybody <3′s Cole.
In case you live under a rock or are somehow disconnected from the rest of the entire world, Sasktel Jibfest went off last saturday..
The course was gnar, and there were more up-features than I’ve ever seen in my life + A flat, down, flat, down, box that spread to a total of a bout 40 feet. HUGE PROPS TO JOSHY BRESH, OFFAXIS AND EVERYBODY INVOLVED IN THE BUILD/EVENT.

Anyways, Local here Alex Dong, fresh off his victory in assessippi at provs, charged the course all day with a flury of tech and spin maneuvers that not I, nor the announcers could name before he had stomped and rode away. After slaying in the semi’s Dong couln’t exactly put it down in the finals, but his style and his smile were on point as always.

Levi (Z) Ziegler came out SENDING all day with huge BS Rodeo gaps over the entire features and steezy rail combos like off the toes front one into switch 3′s out of the tank. Like Dong, Z killed the semi’s but couldn’t quite stomp his way to the podium. The amount of comments I’ve seen regarding Levi’s sending is getting to be quite obnoxious, but his “no pants backflip” was definitely a crowd favorite.

Lil’ Bryks in true Lil’Bryks fashion send a couple back 1′s over the hip after took a nasty bail to his shoulder after catching a heelside edge on the tank that would eventually end his day. After a little ACL damage, reports say he’s almost back to “par” seen recently test swinging Ping G15′s at Nevada Bob’s..
MY MAN- The consistency and skill in cole’s riding is aboslutely rediculous and he’s got a bag of tricks almost as big as his.. heart. Cole put down a ton of tricks all day, including a huuge front one gap to down on the monster box that ultimately sealed his victory. Cole walked away with 500 bone and a smile on his face, and we couldn’t be more proud of him. One hell of a way to finish off the year. YEAH COLE.

* On a side note our photographer Andy was in the heat of the action, taking shots and filming and we’ll hopefully have an edit/ gallery up for you soon.
The future is bright.
