and then there was blood!!!



this weekend metro was lucky enough to host a skate demo with lowcard mag, blood wizard skateboards and heavy wheels. the wizards brought with them a cauldron of wizards brew, which upon being imbibed, gave them the power to float effortlessly across metro's rugged serrated parking lot, up onto our quarterpipes two feet of vert and into any trick their hearts desired! unfortunately for the mere mortals, jerry gurney left precious few drops for the rest of the crowd, he straight killed it! edit features the skating of frank faria, ratface, shane sullivan, b-man, adam benson and jerry gurney!!!
