A New Threat?
The 2008 AST Dew Tour is on the road again after concluding its third stop, the Wendy’s Invitational. Top athletes from the world of action sports landed in Portland, OR on September 11-14, and thrilled the crowds with nonstop action in the race for the Dew Cup.

But the enthusiastic crowd were also treated to the riding of Mike Mason, Nate Adams, Blake Williams and others who are turning out their best tricks in an attempt to win the Cup.

But Pierre-Luc Gagnon, Andy MacDonald and Sandro Diaz aren’t sitting back waiting for them to claim the cup.
