Off Track: Ryan Tuerck beats Corey Hosford in Crazy Cart drift race
Low-speed action is the best way to wrap up the 2013 Formula Drift season
The 2013 Formula Drift season came to an end in Irwindale, California last weekend. While it's sad that we will be without drifting's showcase series for a little while, it's even harder to deal with the fact that we won't get to see the Off Track crew until Formula Drift returns. For Formula D's final stop at Irwindale, host Jarod DeAnda talks with drifters Daigo Saito and Robbie Nishida, Danger Andy talks with 2013 Formula Drift champion Mike Essa about his winning season, and Jensen Argyle III talks to strangers.
Also, Ryan Tuerck and Corey Hosford show that they really can drift anything, even a Razor Crazy Cart.

Point it down straight and hold on tight, because this one gets crazier with seemingly every twist, turn, jump, and stair ride.
Here's another Lil Wayne skate edit. Make of it what you will, but the guy takes a few serious slams in this one. You can't deny that he's going for it and loves being on his board.

What do you do with a futuristic Chinese metropolis built for over 1 million citizens before being promptly abandoned and left to rot? You put Vaughn Gittin Jr. on a plane, you get a brand new Mustang GT, and you turn the Formula D wheelman loose on the streets of the world's biggest ghost town, that's what. Ford says the video was put together to celebrate the Year of the Horse, but you and I both know this is about one thing and one thing only: Slaying tires. Fire it up and enjoy.
Boston has had plenty of snow this winter (PLENTY). So the Signal Snowboards crew decided to get into a little throwback vibes and hit up Boston.
On this episode of Every Third Thursday, Dave Lee and the crew team up with longtime skateboard designer Paul Schmitt to create the ultimate backyard, back hill, neighborhood golf course fun board—we’re calling it Mr. Fun. Dave finds legendary skateboarder Christian Hosoi’s pro model shape in Professor Schmitt’s workshop, which serves as the foundation for this 7-ply deck. Hosoi himself stops by the factory to add some crucial design input to the Hammerhead-esque shape (kinda like the surfboard he made of it). Mr. Fun gets a custom Hosoi grip tape job and then it’s off to the streets of Boston for the historic amounts of snow to see if Mr. Fun delivers on the promise of fun.
See this simple board take on snowy streets, parks and everyday urban features with no lift ticket (and no bindings) required. Does this look like fun to you? Let us know in the comments below!
