Infamous had an up-and-down weekend , starting slow against the Roadies . They perked up to defeat Gridlock , but then dropped one to Ground Zero , and then joined in on the Sunday morning beat down on the hyper pipe , playing several of the greener teams . They did take a W over Farside on body count to get them into the Semis , but the inconsistency caught up with them there . They fell to Adrenaline and the Misfits respectively on quick mop ups .
And then came the heartbreak loss for The Misfits who had been riding high . Adrenaline shocked them with a 98-4 trouncing , and they missed finals by a hair .
In the end , it would be Farside coming out with a number one seed into the finals alongside Gridlock and
Adrenaline . Moving on to the mounds field , Farside cleaned up with a quick pull-and-hang on Adrenaline , and another over Gridlock to take the top spot on the podium . Gridlock then put the hurt on Adrenaline with a 98-4 win to take second place overall .
After taking the top of the podium at ICPL Playa Classic in February , this win puts Farside on top of the Open 10 Man rankings for the season to date . Despite their 6th place finish in this event , The Misfits are not far behind . And with solid teams rounding out the top 10 in rankings , and both the Portugal Open happening in Europe on May 31st and the Texas Classic taking place down at Cousins in Dallas on the same weekend , it will be interesting to watch the shifts expected on the leaderboard going into the summer .
