You Will Believe A Dude Can Fly
I’m surprised no one has thought to ask Nick Lowe to rewrite his song “I Love the Sound of Breaking Glass” as “I Love the Sound of Breaking Bones” to be the theme song for the annual AST Dew Tour, a series of skateboarding, BMX and freestyle motocross sports competition lifestyle events held in cities across the country for the last four years.
At the five events, athletes in six different, potentially bone-crushing skills earn points to become champion of their domain.
The daily Outdoor Festival with its vendors, freebies, athlete autograph signings, and chances to try your hand at a rock-climbing wall, a dirt-bike track and RockBand for PlayStation, and a 9 p.m. concert tomorrow by Plain White T’s provide distraction when there aren’t bodies flying in the air trying to maintain contact with bike or board after spinning in the air multiple times.
The AST Dew Tour Right Guard Open starts at 2 p.m. today at the North Coast Harbor and runs through 6 p.m. Sunday. And if you can’t make it down, you can see highlights on NBC Sports tomorrow through Sunday. Tickets: $15 single-day, $35 fourday pass and up. Call 216.241.5555 or go to ast.com.
