RedBull held the world finals for the AM Manny Mania contest here in NYC on Saturday. Skateboarders from all over the world came to New York’s Coleman skate park and battled it out for the championship title. Brazil’s JP Dantas got 1st, Mohamed Saouti (left) came in 2nd and Brandon Bandula (right) took 3rd. Mad manuals went down combining flip in flip out to grinds & slides… the contest was definitely entertaining. The Supra team was also there kicking off their Summer tour signing autographs and giving away some shirts. After the contest 150 skateboarders were invited to skate the course granted they had a set of 5Boro x Andale golden wheels. After everything we headed up to Epstein’s and closed out the evening.
