Some big competitions this weekend with the kick-offs of the Dew Tour in Boston and the Swatch TTR World Snowboarding Tour. Also this week, we saw the 2010 Surfing America USA Championships, more Gatorade Free Flow qualifying sessions, and another stop on the Lucas Oil Motocross tour. Across the pond, there was a sick FMX event in Moscow and some crazy skating events going down in Copenhagen. Enjoy coverage from this week's events!

Skate Park Podium Dew Tour Kicks off in Boston

Canadian Pierre-Luc Gagnon, 30, won the skate vert finals and Milwaukee, Wis.-native Greg Lutzka, 25, won the skate park finals on Saturday at the Dew Tour Skate Open in Boston. The wins earned Gagnon and Lutzka the title of ISF Skateboarding World Champion in their respective disciplines. With a score of 91.26 in the vert competition, Gagnon beat out Sandro Dias of Brazil and Boston-born Andy Macdonald, who earned second and third. In skate park, Lutzka bested Ryan Sheckler in second and Chaz Ortiz in third. Full coverage here.

Conner Coffin 2010 Surfing America USA Championships

In San Clemente this weekend, top seeds Kolohe "Brother" Andino, Evan Geiselman, Andrew "Droid" Doheny and Conner Coffin dominated their Round 2 Boys U18 heats Friday, taking the lead with big maneuvers right out of the gate and forcing competitors to chase down their high scores. Round 2 of the Boys U16 saw two perfect scores, from Parker Coffin and Andino. The two battled for first in the quarter finals, where Parker triumphed; upsetting Andino's streak of first place finishes thus far in the contest. In the Girls divisions, Lakey Peterson, Courtney Conlogue, and Kaleigh Gilchrist dominated. Competition continues today. Full coverage here.

Andrew Short

Lakewood: Stop 5 on the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championships

Ryan Dungey took the lead after Andrew Short went down in lap 5, but Josh Grant pulled ahead to win moto one in the 450 competition. Dungey came back to victory in moto two and won the overall competition, with Ben Townley and Brett Metcalfe rounding out the top three overall. In the 250, the moto one rankings saw Christophe Pourcel leading teammate Dean Wilson and Trey Canard. Despite some competition from Tyla Rattry, the overall top three after moto two were Pourcel, Canard, and Wilson. Check out coverage and photos from the 450 and 250 here.

Against the scenic backdrop of the Kremlin, New Zealand's Levi Sherwood got his second ever win on the tour, beating out American Nate Adams in the finals.
