Finally…..Cory is here.  Now we can get some jumps going.

So, bummer about the weather.  It finally came together, but it was a bit of a drag that Aggy, Jordie, Alex, and Doerfling had to bail.   But that’s the way she goes sometimes, boys.

Nico and R-Dog  stayed, and it went a bit like this:

Actually, it was Andreu who got the ball rolling….of course. Once they got going, it was the full show.  Unbelievable how big these jumps are, and the boys made them look easy.  Like they were going slow when they hit ’em.

Of course, they didn’t all go as planned.

But when they did…

Phone home…

OK, so that was cool and all, but it was kind of boring.  Hey!  What’s this yellow thing doing with it’s doors off?

Yeah, let’s do that.

Is this some kind of joke?  Those are jumps for ants…

Gnargus up front with a good view of the trail.  You get a better view with the doors off.

You also get some premature aging when the heli flies off unexpectedly with your camera bag open and no doors.    Luckily nothing fell out, but there was definitely a small comedy of errors for a bit.

Whatevs, Amber and I bagged the first heli drop off Reco.   It was OK.

Meanwhile, back at the Fest…

Their little hands make the jumps look SOOOO big.

There ya go.  Andreu got the Trick, Nico go the Style, Sorge has the Whip, and KJ went Hoff.

Wicked times hanging out with friends (old and new) all week.   That was just way too much fun.  Here’s another take on the Hoff:

That was a full pull.  I think I’ve been on the road for about 5 weeks, and I really need a break to absorb it all.  What a way to end it though.
