Oh well.

As some of you might have heard, the comp never happened. With 3 days of solid rain, on tuesday night the park was still flooded and the dirt jumps where not ready. I still wanted to have the comp (because I knew it would dry up in time) but when I heard that there were no other prizes, except the few I got from Giant, it was better to just cancel.

Come Wednesday afternoon the park was dry and the jumps had been made ridable by using a metal kicker to make a hip into the second landing, making it a 2 jump setup. Some great riding went down and some new tricks were unleashed by guys that don't usually ride dirt. Kim had some great style and no-handers over the "hip", James 180'ed the last jump (freecoasters rule!), everyone was doing 360's, no-footers and tables, Scott bar'sed it, Wayne Gorton has the biggest tuck no-handers, Jason and Donavan both had good runs all day too.

We'll be riding there again this Saturday afternoon and shooting some photos for WCBMX and FB. Stay tuned.
