Ever wonder what goes on inside Dangerous Dan’s head? Apparently a bunch of earwax….

So this is the Center of Gravity, which is a new mid-summer beach festival in Kelowna. Take a bunch of beach volleyball players and mountain bikers and toss them on the beach. Good idea.
It’s a small event at this point. Just a handful of locals like Casey Groves, Garet Buehler, Sterling Grassick, Romo, Doerfling, Schnepf, and Super T.

That seems to be enough to put on a show though.


The first day required some tuning on the jumps.

The boys didn’t seem to have too many problems. A handful of unknown locals really spiced up the show.






Here’s the roll in ramp from a fun angle.

Our man Rob was running the elevator. Watching a few of the guys ride UP the rollin was more fun though.

Of course, there was also some beach volleyball if you wanted something different.

I don’t know what it is, but I spent a lot of time watching volleyball…

Or you could try to watch it all at once.

How do you like my new fisheye lens? Actually, Romo kept over-rotating his three’s, and went through a bunch of wheels. Too much ‘zest’ can ruin the sauce….

DJ’s, flow show, beer garden, volleyball. Nice one with two guys airborne on the same hit.

Super T wants you to join him and the other zombies in their brain eating activities.

Cheeker and Romo.

Random guy (Mr. White) that stole my camera.

Yeaaahhhhhh Booooooooyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Oh, and I got to be a judge for the best trick comp. Here’s a look at one of my fellow judges score sheet (one Shane Jensen, former child star).

I got the crap end of the deal apparently. Check out what these guys got to judge.

Oh yeah…

Some kind of show, isn’t it?

It came down to these two.

I was kind hypnotized by the colour blue at this point.

But the judges saw it differently. I’m satisified with that decision….
