Mike McGoldrick is no stranger to the "Boom of Longboarding". Once upon a time he raced along side the squam bombers on long street skate decks down Cypress Mountain Road.  It was not before long that he set to help grow this thing the way it was supposed to grow.  Mike got himself a proper longboard and started trying things that have never been done.  For a guy that is such a good skier to have an incredible snowboarding style, it was a sight to see.  Pulling off tricks and slides not only in switch-mode but throwing down an incredible amount of style.  McGoldrick not only makes it a priority to ride with the best of them, but he adds so much life to the sessions that  all around are amazed.  Naturally when skating with someone of this caliber, somehow event timid riders start busting stuff that they never thought possible. It's no wonder both pro riders and newbees alike love to shred with this guy. Just a quick mention that when McGoldrick holds an event, it's usually unprecedented, visually thrilling and so much fun that it sets a new landmark, everytime!.  In September 2008, he held "Non-Test".  This event was not only a huge success, but it helped all the attended realize the beauty of a mind that thinks outside the box.  It also reminded us of his earlier attempts at setting a new standard of fun, his 2005 Pros and Bros and 2006 SlopeStyle Events, riders events.
