This year travis hooked me up with two media passes to the West 49 open in Hamilton,Ontario which was nice because i only live about 45 minutes away from Hamilton. I wasnt able to make it friday night which sucks because i wanted to see the rail rumble, team Canada won the rumble with gailea momolu throwing down a switch backlip i wish i could of seen that. Saturday was our first day there and it started out pretty awesome we got to copps colliseum to see a line of like 300 kids and we got to go right infront of all them get our passes and then got in 45 minutes before all of them aswell which was sick because we got to see all the pros practicing there runs and they had like 10 xbox 360s with big tv's so we played those for a while. The qualifying runs started and some were pretty good but others couldnt seem to land alot. Two kids who were absolutely crazy were matt berger a little 12 year old and cody davis who is also 12 they killed the course. Sunday was a really good day i got to meet the whole dc shoes canada team , there all really cool. This one guy swell smith was front boardsliding a rail and fell right on his stomach and did like a front flip over it looked like it hurt like a bitch but he got right back up and continued with his run. I also got some good pictures and videos, i got morgan smith and will marshall playing skate and other videos aswell.
