Boardr Am returns to LES
Today starting at 11am Ryan Clements and the crew from the Boardr return to LES to host the Boardr Am contest. The qualifiers begin with a jam format, allowing skaters to compete in a lower pressure situation than a solo-run, which makes it more entertaining to watch at the same time. After semi-finals end, the top skaters compete in the finals via traditional format of three, one minute runs where the best one counts. Winner gets an all expense paid trip to compete in the AM Getting Paid finals in Montreal with a $20K prize purse. Full schedule listed below, follow the jams online here.
