GFL Series at Charleston had the most entries of all time with 89 in bowl and 132 in street. That combined with rain delays had us at the park from 7am and well past the 12 hour mark by the time we were done. Thanks to the Charleston scene and everyone who came from all around to be part of another GFL.

Winners get a free pair of New Balance shoes. The box is a prop. After the contest, watch for an email from us where you fill in a form with your size and shoe choice. Then New Balance sends them directly to you.
Are rails making a comeback or did they never leave?

Rails on this 5-0.
My old men and rails hypothesis is not panning out. Hey kids, this is an Indy air. When you're grabbing like this and going frontside, it's a frontside air. If you call it an Indy air when someone goes frontside, you will get a grumpy snarl from an old guy, probably with rails.
Must be 30 and Up if pops are bringin' babies to the podium. Thanks Josh for having us in Charleston!

We're back at the street course with a heelflip in some nice shoes.
Meanwhile, the sidelines are still holding it down.
We're not usually still at it after the sun has gone down.
