Right Guard Open 2006 - Thrills & Spills

Jul 27 2006 / Los Angeles, CA The 2006 Right Guard Open in Denver was full of exciting moments, including Shaun White's return to the podium as Skate Vert champ and a dynamic duo performance on the FMX course.  Lat34 was there for all of it and now we have some exclusive footage from the Dew Action Sports Tour introduced by BMX rider T.J. Lavin.  Now's your chance to catch up with all the big hits (and misses) from Denver.
