I, the Office Ninja, friend, Alex Beare, and COC Coach, Colin D Watt, went to Seattle, WA this past weekend to shoot photos and video of the 3rd Annual Downtown Throwdown hosted by Snowboy Productions.
This is a pro-invitational event with COC coaches and guests including Pat Milbery, Jed Anderson, Ben Bilocq, and Nick Dirks amongst an all-star line up of up and coming jibbers including the likes of Scott Stevens, Jonas Micholot, Zac Marben, Austin Hironaka, Ivan Marcinko, Austen Sweetin, Nic Visconti, Jake Olsen Elm and more.
The event was judged by Jon Kooley, Austin Smith, Darrell Mathes and COC's Sean Genovese and emcee'd by Jesse Burtner.
Colin D Watt and Pat Milbery not sure how to react with the overkill of tight pants in such a small area.
Jed Anderson with a switch bs 180 to 50-50 to rewind out. There's a reason why Jed won for the second year in a row.
Nick Dirks with a fs 180 tail tap on the wall.
Ben Bilocq fs 180 switch nosepress. Solid riding from this dude all night long earned him 3rd place.
Pat Milbery was relentless in trying his bs 360 to 50-50 on this down rail. This photo was bs 360 to 50-50 to shin smash.
Pat is still all smiles, even with a couple of bloody shins. Pat Milbery, good dude; great dude.
Get ready for the 2008-2009 shred season and GET STOKED for Camp 2009!
