\u201cGreg Bretz doesn’t care, he catches air – to do so he chose\u00a0the ATV\u00a0board a couple years back and I knew how valuable his feedback was going to be as he is riding in some of the most difficult situations out there,” says Slash Founder Gigi R\u00fcf<\/strong>. “Greg’s recent accomplishments in the Halfpipe are proof of his dedication in progressing snowboarding. I couldn’t be happier for him. He is onto the next level!”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
