April 30, 2013 – 2:48 PM | No Comment

The AXS Gear/Concrete Wave Readers’ Choice survey yielded a tremendous amount of information. Almost 4,000 people took the time to fill out the survey, with an average time of 14-plus minutes to complete! That represents almost 40 days’ worth of time! We produced a fully comprehensive listing of all companies in the Concrete Wave Buyer’s Guide. But here, for the purpose of space, we will address some of the key findings from the survey. We instituted two distinct changes this year. First, we changed the actual questions to reflect what brands are actually owned by readers.

Last month Bustin Team Rider Micku Murgolo put together Freestyle Sessions in Venezuela. This is her third year hosting the event, it keeps growing and was sanctioned this year. Checkout Micku’s writeup, the phI am stoked to announce the great success of Freestyle Sessions III. Let me just start by congratulating every single rider that was part of this rad event because each one of them showed a great level of performance and style!

As you all heard of Freestyle sessions is an annual event, that takes place in Venezuela. This year we decided to try a new hill in a different state ( San diego,Carabobo) the course was smooth and long. 2011 was crucial for FSIII because we decided to take the event to the next level.Wwe partnered with local brands as well as the town’s sport association (IAMDESANDI) to make the event legit and complete! During the entire event we counted with the support of the local police which helped on the closure of the hill and parking organization, also the assistance of an ambulance and local neighbors.

Hits started around 11:30 am. Each competitor had two rounds to show and prove their sliding and freestyle skills to the four judges : Jairo, La Negra, Perucho  and Jo Frank.  They were judging on style, speed and trick/slide.  Both Open and women divisions were filled with tricks and talent from all over the country!

I want to give shout outs to everybody that somehow got involved with FSSIII, special thanks to our main sponsors Bustin Boards and Movimiento Ilicito, all the supporting companies : Rompiente, Uncle Funkys, Ritual Tattoo, Rasta dogs, Full Design, Nagast, Enjoy, Brutal, AK-47. The town: Alcaldia de San Diego & IAMDESANDI. All our friends and locals, last but not least FSSIII organizing committee Armando Acosta And Myself (micku) !

See you @ the hill next year for some shredding ! I Can’t wait for FSSIV and Want to invite you to join our community and be part of our next event!
