Run Mark, Run

Victoria Skimboards team rider, Mark Mills took first place in the senior mens event in Dewey Beach. Mark is down to fighting weight, running into foot deep water for his takeoffs, and riding a specialized full nosed, 1″ thick, flat rocker bomber with extra heavy, titanium reinforced internal flex amplifiers, and a single molecule of Chris Henderson. They didn’t stand a chance!

Congratulations Mark!
