Is it any surprise that the 4^{th annual Boardshorts, Bulls, and Bikinis was its typical Texas style big this past Saturday night? I mean with a rail jam, bull riding contest, bikini contest, and plenty of Monster mixed drinks, the event practically spells PARTY. And that was just what it was.}

The boys from Step-Up productions in Orlando designed a pretty sweet set up to session. It included a 40 foot rooftop, wedge kicker to fun box for transfering, and a big air kicker. You can see that this meant pro riders and local boys alike were throwing down. Highlights from the night were Kyle Alberts going huge off the kicker. Kyle sealed a third place finish with his boosted indy tantrum. Gabe Lucas pulled off his switch toe side transfer to front board, which grabbed him second place. Finally, to claim first place, Phillip Soven stuck a switch 270 to front board on with 270 transfer to switch front board 90 out (technical as usual from Phillip).

Of course, the shredding was followed up with some good old fashioned bull riding. The six rail jam finalists with returning champion, Shane Bonifay, battled it out in the ring. In the end, Shane claimed the first place belt buckle yet again for a ride of 27 seconds (this is a HUGE feet, I could only last for 11 secs).

Finally, to cap off the night as the drinks started to kick in, the bikini contest began. Not a sight to miss. Check the photos for a recap on that.

So basically, I think I have just proved that Boardshorts, Bulls, and Bikinis or just riding, Texas, and girls, is always a good time. If you need a break from the winter next year, stop by Gilleys Landing in Dallas, TX next year for a good time.
