1st Annual Ultimate Boarder - RECAP POST - April 22nd, 2008 by REELcomp Team

Well there you have it the crowned winner of the 1st Annual Ultimate Boarder competition is Aaron Astorga ! After a crazy week of this three stage event beginning in Squaw Valley and traveling down to Ventura for stage two and three the celebration went off on Saturday. A great toast was made to the man behind the dream of the Ultimate Boarder and in celebration of his birthday. This event was one of a kind in so many ways not only because it was the first three stage event with in the USA but also because it was an event to intertwine the three core board sports and allow the athletes to share their love of the sports with others that have the same passion. All week long there was a competitive vibe but more noticeable was the thrill to be involved in such a fun laid back event. Many of the riders said “we will see you next year”.

REELcomp.com had the LIVE coverage of all three stages and has posted a few highlight reels and interviews of the event. REELcomp.com will be posting many more highlights as we sort through the weeks footage.

Here are a few pics from the activities from the week and stage 3: skateboarding. There will be more to come…
