Just got back from Singapore. It was my first time in Asia and was really stoked to go, so stoked the 30 hour flight didn't really seem that bad. I did some Demo's and judge the Singapore X games. I twas a really good comp, despite finals getting rained out. Thailand ruled the 1st & 2cd spot. The heat was beating everyone down when it was dry out, but shredding happened all weekend when it was dry.
The first morning we did a PrimeTimeT. V. interview live to all of Singapore. They asked typical "Extreme" questions, the BEST was at the end of the interview they were giving highlights of what was next and the host says "and next up we have Male Pole dancing, Singapore's newest fad taking the country by storm"they run a clip of the host in no shirt with shorts hanging upside down on a pole! Haha, so we all start laughing out loud not realizing we're still live on the air, sooooo the guys like" hey, dont laugh guys until you try it" Such a good way to start your morning.
Fighting jet lag is always a fun mental exercise on trips like this, among the fight, I witnessed a fairy giving massages while dancing to music, ate squid on a stick, saw Dave Osato on an iphone add, and chilled on a beach for 5 minutes where ships dumped sewage (what a waste, harhar)*
They trip went by really fast and it was really amazing to meet riders on the other side of the world. I'm for 2 days then off to meet the rest of the team for Mega Tour!
*Get it?
