2010 X Games Snowskate Results

1. Alan Gerlach

2. Phil Smage

3. Justin Roleau

 

Smagical shredders and Ambition Snowskates riders Alan Gerlach and Phil Smage take the top spots at the FUSE Snowskate sponsored X Games 14.  Honorable mentions go out to Justin R. for killing it, and Max Hilty for coming out of “retirement” to claim 3rd in Best Trick.  A huge shout out to Smagical Stars Ross Martin and Doug Henry.  Ross came from a second row start to claim 2nd in Snowcross behind Tucker Hibbert, while Doug made his return to racing a good one with a 3rd in Adaptive SnowX!  Good job to all the riders repping the goat!

California Bound

The Smagical Crew is headed out to sunny California to do some riding and filming with SX/MX Champion Ryan Villopoto. After a few days in Cali, its back to the snow and the Winter X Games with fellow Ambition shredder Alan Gerlach. Add in a possible trip to Woodward at Copper and MotoPlayground article #3 is in the works! 

Woodward is Good.

The Amazing Sandbox Soil
Sandbox Arena

 A last minute trip up to the Sandbox Arena in New Richmond, WI ended up being just what the doctor ordered.  After a few practice sessions on the rusty, but trusty KTM, the track crew closed the track for some filming on the new ZERO electric motorcycle.  Stay tuned for a Smagical Weekly video.  Thanks to Todd Johnson at the Sandbox, and Luke at LPmotocross.com for the great filming.
