The annual Shred Til You’re Dead Halloween rail jam went down this weekend in Burnsville, Minnesota.  Zombie Boardshop as always hosted this great event.  There were many great costumes around which always creates a good vibe.  Even though the snow was sparse, the riders made the best of it.  Hopefully the weather will get colder so we can get some resorts open soon.  Check out the video after clicking the read more link below.  (If you’re reading this on Facebook, you must go to rideMinnesota.com to watch the video)
