Xcorps 12. LUGE -seg.1- Xcorps cameras were the only ones rolling at a grassroots guerilla style gravity sports event called The Barrett Junction Shootout featuring downhill luge, stand up skate board, inline speed skate and gravity bike racing held at Barrett Junction near San Diego Ca. Wild firestorms raged as gravity riders from around the world zipped on leathers, checked trucks and let it go at the IGSA sanctioned event organized by rider Frank Waterhouse who broke the course record on the closed stretch of highway not far from the Mexican border. Xcorps host Bob Woodard opens the show from San Diego riding the Speed Skater street luge equipped with the new SkateBrake. Not bad for a first run Bob! Xcorps cameras were as committed as all those who showed up at the event amid warnings that out of control firestorms burned on all sides. Lots of big smoke and fire shots here as well as a dedication to all the victims of the biggest fire in San Diego history. Papa Roach and Lo-Tel pump the action with X and Gravity Games winners like Rat Sult and the ever loving 'Kludy' skating 60 mph down the hair pinned and cliff edged coarse which offered no room for error. See riders in their best speed tucks and a sick head over heels wipeout by gravity bike rider Noah Rutherford who lives to tell the Xcorps cameras all about it. Yes we slo-mo the magic moments for our viewing audience. Noah split the bikes rims and will recover. Inline speedskaters Dave Lambert and downhill champ George Merkert talk about their realm of the event and invite other skaters to go for speed while Donald Orlando shows off his 84mm 6 wheel skates he got up to 58mph! Nice. After that Xcorps guest host and gravity champ Rat Sult talks to the fiercest female competitor in the league Stacy Allen from Oklahoma and asks her how she got into the sport. Music from the Rolling Stones and Dr. Dre back the piece. The next segment shows speed board legend Kludy talking to the camera about the effects of big winds on course speed. Frank Homemade Waterhouse wraps the shootout with his thoughts, more race action and some powerful NASA shots taken from space of the fires that surrounded the event closing all exit roads. Many camped the night in the ring of fire! XC host Bob Woodard takes another luge run and thros over to Xcorps host Jason Lazo who is in Detroit hanging with the So Cal band NHOI - Never Heard Of It - who are playing Saint Andrews Hall in the rock city. Jason talks with the band about their tour and proceeds to blow the place up! See the show for the fun details. Remember you saw this band first on Xcorps! After that Jason intros a new video from our friends at Rive video promotions featuring music from Relapse Records band UNSANE. WARNING - fierce face grinding bone breaking skate wipeouts here! Wear your bloody helmet! The show wraps with more skate punishment from Rive along with host Bob Woodard promising more action and music from the corps next week. Additional music by the Deftones and Drowning Pool. See The Action Hear The Music Join The Xcorps! Check your bearings and trucks and wear leathers!
