so i got a spot at the Mt St Louis Moonstone event on march 1. i have mediocre skills.  am i goin to get owned?  i think it is going to be a wicked fun day but my hopes are to not be the worst . haha yeah so by mediocre i mean i am comfortable sliding rails with lots of different more difficult setups and can spin 180, 360, 540s  and grabs with the 1's and 3's

Its mostly just for learning and having fun. Go there with a mind set to learn from the pros that will be there and not win and you will have fun. Besides you only get to compete if your group votes for you to compete so you may not even get infront of judges. At least thats my understaning of whats going down.

Thats how they did it at Waterville.  Go and do it for the fun of it.  It is a really good scene to hang out and have fun ..

Wooo Sno Mtn!

I'll be there riding during practice, then during the comp I'll be filming or something. Park crew will be in the park tonight doing some work hopefully if the trail is closed. I wanna get our S-Box set up.

The setup as of now tho is:

25 urban down or flat down box
             Smaller table top
Urban down box,whale tail, or flat bar
          stair set or a-frame
              hip or 22' pipe
               35 foot table
rainbox box, s-box might get set up to the side of it
double barrel urban down, and i think they set in a tiny 5 foot flat box to the side of that, that will be ripped out tonight haha
        podium box at the end.

Is sno's park gonna be closed for the comp?? What are the options for someone who wants to come but isn't in the comp?? I got free passes from the KOP jam and might just head up.
