Highlights from Sonic Generations of Skate
It was a foggy day in Venice Beach, CA on Saturday, but that didn’t stop 12 skateboarding pros from rocking it on the half pipe to compete for the winner’s title. Some of the best skaters, including Sergie Ventura, Sandro Dias, Mitchie Brusco, and Tony Hawk, competed in a team-based challenge for the win. There were 4 teams, each consisting of 3 skaters — one from each “generation”. Skaters competed in different challenges, including high air, best trick, individual run, and team doubles. There was some impressive skating all around, including Sandro Dias landing a 900 – the first time he’s ever done so. The full competition will be shown on Fox Sports Network on November 25th, but here’s a taste of what went down. 
Here are some images from the day, and you can see more on our Flickr.
Thanks to everyone who came to see the event!

Whoever thought of this event idea deserves a prrrrrrrrromotion!
For real though, it’s nice to see Sonic games get some awesome tie-in events, especially when it involves great people and a sport with an attitude that meshes as well with Sonic. Definitely something that would be great to see more of in the future.
…think that SEGA and MTV could team up to bring back “Rock the Rock” like for Sonic and Knuckles? I mean, if Beavis and Butthead can come back…;D

Completely agree with iNAUDIBLE!! A promotional tide-in that actually makes sense!! Somebody needs to be promoted!! SEGA, this is the way to go! And I don’t even like skateboards, but this was cool!!

I remember meeting Tony a long time ago, (awesome guy btw).
Fun to see more events like this happening. And the best place, the birthplace of skate. =D
