On Friday the 7th of May 2010, many board skaters and many more patans took the time out of their busy schedules to travel out to the famous fruit and vegetable market north-west of nowhere to glean knowlage on an event known only as ‘Red Bull Manny Mania’. Not all was in vain however as the patans witnessed maneuvers that they only thought were possible with the usage of some kind of glue applied to the shoe. Well, how is your mind not to be confused when witnessing the technical maneuvers of board skaters such as Jan Hoffman, Omar Al Abbar, Evan Collisson, Lawrence Jokun, Martin Jaouni, Max Velmitskiy, Gustav Larsson, Mark Issa and the one and only Alex Medvedev – edevedevedevedevedevedevedev. Special thanks to all the Patans for making the event so special. PATAN POWER.
Some wonder why Maysam didn’t make it to the finals!
