AGoodReed Goes Grenade: Half-Pipe Goon’ing

25 April 2009 6 Comments

Lucas Magoon is the reason we snowboard. End of story. He is the definition of a well-rounded rider, as well as an outstanding gentlemen. He rode the half-pipe with poise and finesse. His mastery of amplitude and technical maneuvers were a highlight of the half-pipe festivities. Towards the end of the event, he took it upon himself to bring the party to the people, and set his targets on the Grenade pinata.

Lucas got a Rolex or something from the pinata. Lucas celebrated by swaggering like a drunk and muttering demonically.

Other highlights were:

-Sammy Luebke was flying and got $500.

-Korath Wright earned $500 as well as a pass to the grand finale event.

-Dennis Bannock got $500 for best crash. We think he died.

-Louie Vito did some push-ups and spun around a bunch and got $500 for best trick.

-3rd place: Dustin Craven, because he is awesome.

-2nd place: Guillaume Morisset because he has a sweet name.

-And the grand poobah of the show was Mr. TJ Schneider, the man behind The Snowboard Realms. He won $10 million dollars all while saying “fucking half-pipe.”

    If Magoon is the reason you snowboard…God help us all. Magooners are the reason I hate snowboarding.

    Lucas McGoon may be a drug-addled, funny-looking weirdo, but he has more style and creativity in his pinky finger nail than any of the other assholes that were competing in the Grenade Games. Who wants to seem random dickhead do a rodeo 9 over the same boring-ass kicker?

    Oh, wait, Rick does.
