The 2nd Annual Clearfield Downhill Event, themed this year as the Mustache Ride Derby, was a perfect success. Riders from all over the east coast met up in central Pennsylvania, along with 4 Canadians that made the trip. The event drew in 29 racers, roughly a dozen other skaters and at least that many spectators, all with steezy mustaches to show.

The weekend events started late Friday night when “The Canadians” arrived in Clearfield close to midnight. We spent a few hours hanging out and had a nice carpet slide session. Dmitri threw down some sick 360 shuvits, while Matt K worked on some new moves yet to be named, on a few naked decks. I think carpet sliding is going to be the next big thing. For those looking to start, a nice plush carpet works better than and area rug.
