Saturday Smackdown

COLORADO SPRINGS -- COLORADO
The MBS Backyard was the host of the first ever Saturday Smackdown on April 5. It was also the first MBS sanctioned shred of 2008 and will become a regular event throughout the year.
There was a great turnout, great riding, and great music from DJ JLEE pumpin out the jams from the back of the van. Smackdown enthusiasts at the roll in

Mid session, MLF made an anonymous appearance in the form of a box of abandoned t-shirts.

Among other things, he also had this to say regarding the attack:

"In these most modern of days it is becoming ever easier to succumb to the homoculoid status of what one might call an 'internet mall rat.' Like those people that just do not leave the mall, internet mall rats grasp at every echo of a chance to partition their binary thoughts in a collective and world-wide atmosphere. Hence these former beach goers seek solace in the degredation of this already tainted field and yet another pointless liberation is fueled. On the internet you may encounter similar situations as these. I would suggest you bring your knee and ass pads as this will be a long and highly scabbed sit. In fact, get up, its Go Time."

As to what Trugg means by "Go Time", one could only guess, but a good start might be found here


The Smackdown was truly an event for all ages and skill levels. The pros who made it out were riding right along side first time riders and it was clear that the best mountainboarders out there were the ones having the most fun. Logan Field, also on top of page

Jason T. Lee, shown here jumping a volvo, coordinated the event and said he was pleased with the outcome.

"The first Smackdown was a grand joyous occassion," Lee said, "close to 20 riders and bikers of all ages and abilities gathered to ride and have a good time." He also added, "For those of you living under a rock, Saturday Smackdowns are freestyle jam sessions held at the MBS Backyard on the first Saturday of every month."


Remember, this is the father of mountainboarding we're talking about, when he says every month, he means every month. So, if the rest are anything like the first, the MBS Backyard is the place to be every first saturday. See you there.
