Snowboarding took center stage in the Twin Cities this past weekend as 32 snowboarders descended on the Minnesota State Capitol Building for a showcase of no-holds-barred, progressive riding at Red Bull Heavy Metal.
Deemed Red Bull Heavy Metal Day by both statewide and city-wide proclamation, the stoke was unparalleled as Saint Paul Mayor, Melvin Carter, welcomed a roaring crowd to the proceedings.
This year, Red Bull Heavy Metal offered up even more opportunity for notoriety by crowning two overall champions, as well as winners and runners-up in each of three distinct zones, a hallmark of the Heavy Metal competitions from the early 2000s.
