DUSTIN AND SPENCER IN SOUTH KOREA!

After 24 hours of being awake, an 11 1/2 hour flight with a 2 1/2 hour layover to get on another 1 hour flight to getting on another 1 hour bus ride,  myself Dustin Montie, Spencer Hamilton, Micky Papa and Jarvis Nygelsky have finally made it to Busan South Korea for the Busan Tre X Games! The hotel came to a big surprise for us as we walked in the room and saw no beds but in Korea's older ways you put down a cot style mattress on the floor, which really isnt the most comfrotable thing in the world but I guess we can't really complain when we aren't paying for the room ourselves.
Today is our first day in. We have street practice this afternoon to check out the course which is hte course for bmx and rollerblading, so we have no idea whatsoever to expect. I will keep posting throughout the trip. I have no photos at this second to uplaod but keep checking back as we are taking photos non stop and I will be posting a bunch along the trip!
