Demolition and Nike flow rider, Christian Rigal scored today's POTD by locking it down with a smooth crooked grind, captured perfectly by Joey Cobbs. I was browsing the web on Christian and knew that he was getting flow from Nike 6.0 but couldn't find him listed on the Nike website. I guess that's because he's still fairly new to the team, so if you didn't know that, now you know. Rigal's also responsible for filming footage for the new Demolition video that's currently in the works and he's quite savvy behind the lens.
"Christian Rigal happens to be both a pro rider and a pro filmer. Because he's a pro filmer, he owns a generator allowing him to light up spots at night for hours on end. And because he is a pro rider, he is able to crooked grind kinked rails in three tries. This was on a Demolition trip to Las Vegas and in the middle of a 1 AM sesh. Rigal can get it done behind and in front of the lens" -Joey Cobbs
