Richard Dweza wins Houwteq!Grabouw, South Africa- Richard Dweza confirmed his first placing in yesterday's time trials by winning the High Rising Downhill Xtreme. Dweza won the Downhill Skateboarding class with consistently high speeds and excellent lines through the "Dip". He was ecstatic to achieve his first win in an IGSA sanctioned race, and a cool Sector 9 skateboard. Relative newcomer Josh Smit played a successful tactical game, holding back and betting on the riders in front of him pushing the envelope too far in the "Dip". Veteran rider Alex Duss, and a much improved Ben Malherbe both came through to their first IGSA final to claim 3rd and 4th places. For the complete story go to www.IGSAworldcup.com
