Slap Magazine's "One in a Million" Episode #1

This years One in a Million competition took place in New York City, where I was asked to be on the judges panel along side Billy Rohan, Lou Sarowski, Steve Rodriguez, Luis Tolentino, Eli Reed, and Cairo Foster. This was by far one of the hardest contests I've ever had to judge because the competitors are all super good, hungry, and productive skaters.

In this first episode, you'll be introduced to all of the young fresh talent, as they share their thoughts about being in NYC to compete for a One in a Million chance to get sponsored, and live their dreams of being pro skaters. Who will be this years One in a Million?
