In our current age of "flippy360-to-switch-manny-revert-shuv-180-flipout" skate style, Red Bull has hosted Manny Mania contest series which has been going on annually since 2007. The contest was held outside the Energy Solutions Arena, the event was totally free to the public, even hobos, and open for any skater over fourteen to enter the comp. So with the Red Bull blondies handing out drinks and the pre pubescent kids getting boners, the competition was soon underway. The heats consisted of 7 minute rounds of four skaters, about 24 skaters overall. Judges consisted of a handful of pro snowboarders from the Spice Boys and other teams. Danny Souk was the underdog at the beginning of the contest. He ended up winning first place at the end, striking the nail into the first place coffin with a frontside 180 nosemanual fakie 360 flip out. Kevin Fedderson busted out mind bending tricks that got him into second place, but he lacked the diversity of trying new inventive lines that the judges were looking for.
