Wieger looks like he should be in a library or something. He's very student-like with that Supercuts red mop and collar shirt. That backside 180 nosegrinds look so good.

Heelflip backside lipslides are about as rare as ginger pro skateboarders.

Sometimes a great looking roll-away makes a trick. Chris Pfanner - kickflip up.

Peter Ramondetta - lipslide transfer. Who did it best? Peter or Elissa?

Luan made this kickflip nose manual nollie flip out after time, but he didn't need it since he was already in 1st place.

Wow, Clem! That tranny is tighter than a gnat's ass. We got to the Park early yesterday and got to roll around before the masses arrived. Live webcast at noon Eastern time today for the Finals!

We stay at this great hotel called The Fox in Copenhagen every year. Brian's in the guest book like a true tourist.
Grant Taylor shuts down the tight tranny every year. That's a backside tailslide over.

Thanks to Braydon for skating and just being personality champ for the whole weekend.

Their graduation ritual here is to rent one of these crazy military trucks and roll through the city on a loud party. We need to get on one of these one year.
Reda, straight bid'niss. I wonder if his calls are over $2 a minute like mine are.

Looks like the 2011 tour dates for the NKOTB reunion tour are coming out soon. That's no boy band. That's a man band.
P-Stone in his standard camera/brew mode with Phelps in his standard MJ's.

Nicky Guerrero - another one you hope to be skating like when you're that age.

Thanks for putting this amazing Bowl Jam together, Rune. That's a back smith over the loveseat.

After this weekend, I'm really waiting for Raven's part in the Chocolate video. This kid is off the charts.
Skater Profile: Raven Tershy
Chris Miller - you can't really hope to skate like him at any age, so just sit back and enjoy. That's a back lip over the seat.
Skater Profile: Chris Miller
He's not taking a photo like that is he? Nah, he's cheering for Pedro's front smith in the over-vert.
Skater Profile: Pedro Barros
This kid is laughing at how drunk Dustin Dollin is. Pink wheels, shirt, and scarf with mall grab doesn't really entitle you to laugh at anything.
Skater Profile: Dustin Dollin
I can't even believe this is humanly possible. Alex Perelson - back lip on the over-vert.
Skater Profile: Alex Perelson
Chris Miller's got those back blunts in the deep like it's not even a trick.
Skater Profile: Chris Miller
Rothmeyer and James Craig are on a street food mission. These bacon wrapped hot dogs might be good in the US, but here, the wrap is so gnarly with the plastic, it feels like someone melted a condom around it. No good.
Simon and crew are filling up the center ledge with hundreds of beers. There's even ice in there. They must have imported the ice from the US.
Same story every year. Children with beers. In the US, this kid would die somehow and the parents would be in jail.
It was complete madness during the Best Trick over the car. That's Chris Cole switch 360 flipping it.
Skater Profile: Chris Cole
After the Contest, the $70k US prize purse gets passed out. They're very good with their bookkeeping and tax compliance here.
P-Stone should just put a pocket right there on his shirt. That's where he's always got his beer propped.
Skater Profile: Preston Maigetter aka P-Stone
SPoTlight judge Mathieu doesn't snap a beer until the job is completely done. Keep it professional like that.
I'm in the Copenhagen airport now on my way to a quick stop in Prague to visit my wife who's there on business. The only bid'niss I got is a mission to Stalin plaza. See you next year, Copenhagen.
