Pride and ego have long fueled the debate between who's better: skateboarders or snowboarders. On this episode of Team Swap, the skateboarders put their money where their mouths are and head to the slopes of Winter Park. But can they hold their own? Will the snowboarders be able to conquer the underdog skate team? And who at the end of the day will be crowned... MVP? The answers are all right here.

Gregorio, Nick Motte, Vincent Comparetto, Brian Ball, Chris "PeeWee" Levy, Louis M. Schmidt and more. After Boulder's Jeremiah Brooks was struck and nearly killed by a Jeep traveling 65 miles-per-hour, local skateboarders and world-reknown artists alike collaborated to create a benefit show to help ensure Jeremiah a quick recovery. Each artist was given a white pair of Vans Skate-Hi's, a sheet of grip tape, and a plain white hat, all to mold into their own creation. The items were then sold at auction following the show and all of the proceeds went directly to Jeremiah. Cinematography: Mark Spencer Editing: Ryan Simpson
