All controversy and destruction aside, I had a great time at Bittercold this year. Getting the chance to meet up with all my friends and watching the best blading on the planet is what the Bittercold experience is all about. I won’t say anymore about this year, I’ll just let the photos and edit do the talking.

P.S. If I messed anyone’s name or location up, let me know. See you next year!
