The judging is fine, riders need to learn to make runs for the XDL rules.

Do that and see what happens!

 

Yep! The 5,5,5,5 deal at XDL. I just choked, im very disapointed with myself.

Judging is on point.

 

Luke did great, a very hot man once said to me "he needs to work the crowd more" so try that. That's the one thing I didn't see Luke doing a lot of.

I don't think the judges picked favorites here, I think certain favorites proved out. The way they ride is what makes them favorites to win in the first place. That was a really great line up of riders. Wish EDUB and Apex would have made it out there.

 

It's the best i have seen yet, but just feel the variation should be worth a little more than a max of 20 points for 20 trix...... I'm not saying it's bad, nor trying to argue about it, but like you said... make the runs for xdl rules... which mine was not..... and i'm not mad about it..... you live, you learn, you ride!

 

Agreed.......I thought the judges did a phenominal job this weekend for the position they were put in.

Excellent work guys.... .......I would never wanna be put into your position.



Ryan, right there with ya brother. Pretty disappointed and pissed at myself as well. At this point, its back to the lot from here on out working on that more better perfection and execution.

perfecting those burnout stalls on the wall!!!!!!

 

Awww babe, can i call u a squid from now on then? J/k, it's okay, I love u anyway.

Yeah, maybe poor gil shouldn't have practice sessions with me anymore because I coulda sworn he was riding exactly like me. We've coined terms for my tricks: STOPS, POPPIES and NO BURNS. I "stop" without the rear wheel coming up & skidding foward, my wheelies never reach bp so they're called "poppies" and "no burns" cuz the tire doesn't burn out. Maybe I can show you some of these exclusive tricks one day.

 

Did anyone make it over to the drifting event saturday? that was insane.

Borne and crew, Thank you guys for letting us ride at your spot in Davenport saturday night. Was a lot of fun.


^^^^^Gil rode fine. and your guys' dog was awesome. I was afraid it was coming out of the crib and biting me while watching the event.

Luke Duke- Dont sweat it homie.We thought your run was sick.

 

i would have to say i would be the biggest squid there!!

 

I had a great time this weekend, even though I waffled myself after my qualifier! Judges always have a tuff job to do, but this weekend was insane! The amount of talent at this event was rediculous, could have been any one of the 30 guys out there! Luke, I didn't see your run, but I am sure it was good, and I am sure you weren't far from qualifying, I just hope my wrist heals up before March! Good seeing everyone again, and thanx again to Teach, the Coltons, John Legion and whoever else had my bike totally straightened out before I got out of the ambulance!

 

atleast you got the jacket broken in now

 

:YEAH .....I'll have to keep that in mind for long beach. If you stuck around long enough I was working on wall stalls with them on at the end of the day sunday.







Glad you guys made it out to hang out for a few.....wish I coulda made the hang out part a little longer, but I think the week and weekend finally caught up with me.

Lemme know if you guys ever wanna come and rock out in the Toledo or Detroit area.

Yes Sir!!! I got too close and the side of the tire was catchin the wall, BUT!
I have a few other tricks that involve the wall up my sleeve. Where can I by a couple of those wall divider things?

 

...I'm coming to your house to practice.

 

Dont be "That Guy"

We already had one guy say the same thing at the begining of the weekend, Shane C, hell, I cant even remember his last name (ya know so many people to favor I cant keep it straight), he qualified 6th and was a unknown rider.

Ever think of this one .... Theres probably a reason that the same 5-10 riders always place in the same 5-10 places in EVERY comp they go to no matter whos doing the judging. I know I dont judge 3/4 comps teach went to, but im pretty sure he got 1st in 3 of the 4 he went to.

Maybe its our judging conspiricy, we all just want to keep the new riders down ...... come on guys everyone has the same chance, just cause youre a local superstar doesnt mean you are the most well rounded rider. I would love to see a few new guys dominate, just read the judging criteria, do the tricks you do perfectly, and make a run thatll work.

 

Some pics from Last Man Standing to burn the nightmare into your memory for good.

 

wow that event was such a mess...lol!!! carnage fo sho

 

Haha! And those shots are a perfect example of why I didn't enter last man standing!

p.s. When do I get my own Stunt Cards!!!???
