Tonight concluded the X-Dance Action Sports Film Festival with the awards ceremony that was hosted by Transworld Surf Editor, Chris Cote. It was a great party to end a great event and you really have to hand it to the wonderful crew responsible for putting on an amazing event. That and it’s really great for someone to recognize all the hard work that goes into making these films, both from the athletes and the filmmakers. Here are this year’s winners…
