By far the most difficult BCSD to ever judge. The level of rollerblading from all of the finalists was far beyond anything that anyone could have imagined. The crowd favorite was clearly John Bolino, but the mob is not always right. At different times during judging everyone was certain that both John Bolino and Brian Aragon were winners. In the end, the difficulty, magnitude, danger, style and creativity of Chris Haffey’s rollerblading earned him the 2010 Bitter Cold Showdown title; absolutely nothing more and definitely nothing less.

If you disagree with the results, good, that means you are still passionate about rollerblading. Go tell everyone how you feel, tell them who you think should of won, tell them everything about the event, tell them how angry you are about the results. Share your passion with everyone.

You’re welcome.
