Matix Lord of the Lines footage

If you haven’t seen the footage from the Lord of the Lines comp, run by Matix, then you definitely should.

A new concept for comps where riders have 10mins to come up with their best 3-trick line on various size blocks, this comp’s emphasis was on consistency and creativeness. With riders at the event including Torey Pudwill, who came away with the top prize of $10,000, Enrique Lorenzo, Joey Brezinski, Billy Marks, Danny Montoya, Bobby Worrest and loads more, this should be a permanent fixture every year.
