Early last Saturday morning, Martock gathered youth of all abilities and from all areas for Youth Gone Wild 3! All participants were age 13 and under, and other then their size, you’d never know it… Some of these kids cruised through the park with such ease and style, you know the kind that most of us try to achieve our whole snowboarding lives. The progression within the competition was awesome, with some kids hitting the biggest features with no thoughts on how hard they could hit the ground. The morning went by quickly, with Sparkles on the mic calling tricks and yelling some encouragement. It was a laid back atmosphere, kids just taking run after run and trying to land the best tricks. The kids were stoked on their runs and even more excited about the prizes!

Cole Parsons was the big winner for the event walking away with some Anon goggles and other swag. There were so many kids that threw down and won some cool items, including both the ladies who participated!

All participants were proud to wear “I ride for Kevin” arm bands, showing their support for the Burton Team rider who is now out of a coma.

A big thank you to Jon Sparkes our local Burton rep who has put this competition for the last 3 years. He never forgets the little guys!

See you on the hill!
