Pepsico Flavors Category manager Kaye Paras said their partnership with the local skateboarding made such an activity possible.

“It’s a global contest that brings together the best skaters around the world, and we’ve partnered with the local community with this,” said Paras.

The faceoff at the Circuit Makati brings together the best Manila skaters and the winners of the three elimination events called Dew Tour Boot Camps.

The camps took place in Laguna, Cebu and Davao, and this year marks the first time that Mountain Dew hosted the boot camps for skaters outside Metro Manila.

This time around, pro skaters Thetis Beaseley, Chris Colour and Remo Pearson were around  to show their support to the local community.
