Green Eggs & AM

The Green Eggs & AM contest series started this last weekend up in Newport Beach. Put on each year by Paulo Preitto, the Green Eggs & AM is a great contest series for amateur skimboarders to get ready for the contest season. Full results of the contest will be available soon but Victoria’s Matthieu Thibaud took some pictures and did get results of the Advanced division. A shout out to Johnny Salta for taking 1st place in the Advance division beating out Zane Waysz, Kenneth Suzuki, and Jeremiah Sheldon and then to Nolan Rodgers for taking 2nd place in the Beginner division.

The next event will be West Street on March 31, 2012.
