Snowboarders Unlock the State Capitol?! | Red Bull Heavy Metal
Спорт
Since street snowboarding’s emergence in the late nineties, Minnesota has been a breeding ground for rail riding precision-the sort of immaculate technique to which others aspire.
On Saturday, February 10th, the mayor of Saint Paul, Melvin Carter, stood on the terrace of the Minnesota State Capitol Building. Directly behind him was a snow run-in, a small-but-powerful winch, and a sizeable jump. Mayor Carter held up a framed document and proclaimed February 10th 'Red Bull Heavy Metal Day' in the city of Saint Paul, echoing the sentiments of the Minnesota Governor’s state-wide mandate the day before.
Then the mayor stepped out of the way so 32 of the best street snowboarders in the game could snowboard the Capitol. That's definitely an NBD.

the immovable bollard in the landing of the 40 foot jump is funny to me.
So cool to be a part of history and witnessing some seriously gnarly hits!

Live in Florida so no ice down here, do snowboards now have deck rails? Saw some sparks at the base of the long rail stair contact, wondered if they started adding shallow ribs to freestyle setups.
Bro Todd is a legend. Also, that ground is gnarly. Bunch of head knockers.

As a spectator with a kiddo I was very disappointed that they did not put one single screen for people to view who could not be within the first 10 people from the gate to see anything. They chose to put the vendors at the top of the stairs (viewing deck) blocking anyone from viewing that was not fighting for position. Great event extremely poor planning for the majority of people there to be able to see the event.
First viewer! 🫠🙃

people still shred the streets homie, these riders wouldn't be able to ride here without the event tho. don't disrespect Grendy either, he's OG and announcing 1 event doesn't tarnish everything else he's done

in like 1980? Relax lol.
i would much prefer an actual live presenter, like a recording of the speaker, instead of this weird "AFV" talkover kinda reacts, kinda olympics presenting style. js
Well it got no better. I guess it's okay for sports to go backwards in progression. Society seems to be in general so why not sports!
So far zone 1 was crap. If those were the best riders you could get then maybe you should have looked harder. Best trick from the women a backflip.... Lame... Hope the rail zones get better but going off what I just watch this is going to be a sh!t show.
They shouldn't mix in the women's runs with men's. The women are severely lacking in skill and would be nice to skip over if it wasn't mixed in with the men's. A 180° nosegrab is not gonna cut it ladies when you've got dudes doing Way more impressive tricks.
sry to be this guy.. but why isn‘t wearing a helmet required for the tournament? 🫠
