What's the best way to learn tricks over a macking jump? Throw an airbag in the mix. Johnnie Paxon sends it.
Calling themselves "Team Terror," Rome riders Bjorn Leines, Marius Otterstad, Johnnie Paxon, Stale Sandbech, and Eiki Helgason are in Mt. Hood this week for a team session at Windell's camp. Pretty much everything you'd expect—a ripping session in both the pipe and the off airbag kicker (who doesn't want to chuck their carcass over an airbag?), skating in Gov'y Camp, and lots of kids, you know, running around. More photos from the Rome crew after the jump.
