As you remember, we were down in The Big Easy for this rad event once again. Peep our coverage. Well now, all 10 shop teams that were invited down have their edits online for your viewing and voting pleasure. Meet the teams and cast your vote.

For more info, here's the official breakdown from the Bull:

Red Bull Terminal Takeover, the skateboarding competition that gives the phrase “now boarding” new meaning, returned to MSY’s abandoned terminal for two days of skating and filming in a new, custom-designed skatepark. Without fear of being chased out by security, skaters hit tricks on escalators, baggage carousels and ramps placed strategically throughout the airport.

Over the course of two days, ten teams of skaters from cities all over the country took turns hitting every feature imaginable in the old terminal and filming their sessions. Once they return to their hometowns, they’ll edit what they captured and submit a two-minute clip that will be posted for a fan-sourced vote on redbull.com. Voting begins in mid-May and will last two weeks with the victorious skate crew receiving a cash prize that they can put toward an organization of their choice.

“No one gets the opportunity to skate an airport, for multiple days – ever. This year we were able to really push the envelope in skateboarding with all the talented skate crews we’ve got with us this year.” said Jake Wooten who helped develop the event’s concept as well as the parks features.
