Today was contest day. It is our 2nd last full day in Mazatlan and we are excited to put on a big contest for the locals. We've got a bunch of prizes and we are going to bring a sound system, tent and some more ramps down to la werta to throw a big contest. The kids are all pretty excited about it because now they have all built really great friendships despite the language barrier. It has been really cool to watch. And now they get to hang out and compete in the contest with all their new friends.

We did it so that there was intermediate and expert divisions. Almost everyone there competed, even me! It was a lot of fun, everyone really got into it. We had an english and a spanish announcer and a lot of riders. I think we had over 40 participants and a lot of spectators! The mexican skaters took first in both expert and intermediate. Nester got first in Expert and Axel got 1st in intermediate. It was a great day. It was awesome to spend most of the day just hanging out with the local skaters. We had such a good time with them.
