Newport Contest August 25, 2007
MLSC Skateshop was recently invited to attend and help out with the Newport, WA contest put on by OKB Fest. The event included concerts, a skate contest, and a motorcyle demo by the High Ridaz. It was pretty insane watching those guys do stunts on there bikes. Alex Alaniz, Dakota Davis, Todd Erickson, Ricardo Marroquin, Andre "Jimmy" Moore, Zach Swanson and myself(Josh Mohs) all made it to the event. Everyone skated in the contest except Todd who judged and myself who MC'd the event. This was my first experience behind the mic and let me tell you I was nervous. Once the event got going it was smooth sailing, and I ended up having alot of fun emceeing. Incase you didn't notice above Alex got first place in the beginner division. He didn't do so well in his first run, but put it together in his second run. Alex earned himself a cool $50 bucks.
