Vert Attack 6 – This is what we do!
Mike Vallely, No comply tailslide © Nils Svensson
After months of preparation, weeks of setting up, days of competition and hours and hours of amazing skateboarding and fun times, Vert Attack 6 is now over. A huge thank you goes out to all the rippers that showed up from all over the world, the fantastic audience and all of you who watched the live webcast. We really think Vert Attack is one of the best happenings and we are very happy that you love it too. Vert Attack is for everyone, young and old, pro, am or beginner, men or women and we really think this mix is what makes Vert Attack so good. Everyone is gathered just for the pure love of skateboarding and a shared passion for Vert. Vert Attack is created by skaters for skaters and this will never change. This is what we do!

Yes, yes and yes again. A thousand thanks to all the people involved in making this happen.
Take Duane Peters words and dont screw it up! Like you said yourselves; its the mix of people that do it! I loved sharing turf with Mike V on the street course on thursday, and come friday watching Duane still tearing it up, Ben Hatchell, Andy Scott killing it, Jean Postec airing it up, Gen Ogawa kicking it (literally) and all of the juniors fire it up and baffle me. Everything in a soft and relaxed enviroment, where everyone, pro, master, junior, amateur, crowd is dedicated to the cause of skating. Yes…it’s what we do!
This happens when you put money in the backseat and focus on important things, like people, skateboarding and common values. Apart from the obviously amazing skating in the “folk vert”, I particularly enjoyed the sessions going on in the two bowls and on the street course, all through the event. Skate!
