The first US edition of the Ride Shakedown took place at Snoqualmie this past fri/sat. CAPiTA am Izzy Lalive won the rail jam on friday night, netting herself a cool 5G's in the process. Congrats, Izzy! Saturday, the slopestyle went down, with CAPiTAlists TJ Schneider & Andrew Burns joining Izzy in the fun. None of our crew won cash on saturday, but fun was had by all. Look for the Shakedown to return to Summit at Snoqualmie next season, as well as the OG Canadian event, going down at Mt. Saint-Sauveur in early April.

Come on out to Evo in Fremont this Friday, as some of the C3 gang will be opening a show. Participants: warehouse manager/under the bus victim LTD Kyle (aka papermarbles), "special projects" Mat (aka UFC mat), along with seasonal warehouse slave/talc recipient Tom Coss. Also included: Russ Olson (he doesn't work for us, but he must be cool if he spoons with these dudes). So, be cool yourself and come show some love for some local artists. Mustaches and tight pants are not mandatory, but will be present. There will be refreshments of course!

Schneids won best jibber at "The Slope" rail jam last night. Congrats, Teej. Slopestyle takes place today, then we (tj, sebi, fraser, perez & JT-san) are off to Hokkaido.....
