This past weekend we made a quick venture up to Winter Park for the Red Bull ‘Final Descent’ race. It is a 12 hour endurance downhill race. It was an amazing time to say the least and I would like to thank Red Bull for putting on such an awesome event.
We raced in the 3-4 person team division and managed to pull a third place out of our hats. Our team consisted of myself (Kevin Smith), Ben Devoti (one of the Ski Barn’s main techs.), Rob Nichols and Max Loewenstein. Also along for the ride was Adam Bojan. He is the Student Brand Manager for Red Bull in our area and the reason we got to go race this weekend. Thanks Adam. Adam is also one of the main ski techs. here at Ski Barn. Most of the credit should be given to Rob and Max. They were definitely the fastest two on the team and they pulled out 22 of our total 32 laps. This was the first time I had ridden the big bike this year and Ben’s first time ever on a downhill bike, nevertheless, Ben saddled up and ripped with us.
It was also awesome to Eric Bojan and Ryan Appleton (two former Ski Barn employees) at the races. They both now work for Red Bull professionally showing people how to have a good time. Cheers Bros!
Team Brojangles (from L to R - Rob Nichols, Kevin Smith, Max Loewenstein and Ben Devoti)! 3rd Place at Red Bull 'Final Descent' Winter Park 2011!
