Mirra and Spinner place 1-2 at X-air in New Zealand.
Mirraco riders Ryan Guettler, Dave Mirra and Mike Spinner entered the annual X-Air contest last weekend over in New-Zealand. They made the long trip worthwhile by finishing 7th, 1st and 2nd respectively in street. Mike Spinner fills us in on the craziness that went down:
“The contest was so amazing. So much stuff went down I’m not even kidding. Long story short, it was jam format. On Mirra’s second run he dislocated his shoulder. Josh Harrington put Mirra’s shoulder back in place and one minute later Dave pulled the best ever 360 backflip no-hander. Just perfect and then continued to do some crazy lines that included a flipwhip and a 10 feet high whip over the spine. Right after that I was so pumped I 7-whipped the box straight into a 900 on a 7ft quarter. I was stoked. In the Best Trick contest, after 4 attempts, I pulled a 1080. SOOO stoked” said Mike.
