Saturday last weekend we (Alan + Jordan + I) day tripped to Big Bear. 13 hours of driving for 1 hour riding in this contest. We decided it wasn't quite worth it, but still don't regret it and would probably do it again. The rail jam was called Battle of the Sexes and was put on by Galvanic Design who did a pretty good job considering the circumstances.
This weekend we (Laiken + Alan + Ty + I) drove to Mountain High Friday morning. We rode and filmed all day to amazing ends. The one and only Andrew Salter came up for a night sesh and fun was had by all. We camped out Friday night 2 miles down the road, which was cold, very cold. Then we tramped back to the mountain for another day of riding and 3rd Rail Jam. Riding was really fun all day and the comp set up was really solid. There were no finals, just 2 heats. I ended up winning the skiing, and Alan + Ty rode super well. 3rd Rail Jam style includes only 1st place so Alan narrowly missed out.
We drove back to Flagland Saturday night with the life-supply stop at In-N-Out arriving home around 11. Sunday we rode in the Downtown Flagstaff street event. Alan and I made finals but did not place. The locals Flaglanders slayed it on the ski side.
We have video from Friday!
