what was it?



***********************************
Its winter, the birds have all flown south, all but one. One little bird that waited too long. As it flew to catch it's buddies it got icicles on its wings and fell to the ground. The bird then saw a nice looking branch at the top of a nearby tree and it said to a nearby cow, 'I want to reach that top branch but I don’t have then energy to fly up, can you help?' The cow said, 'Here, eat some of my poop it'll fuel you to climb up the tree.' The little bird said, 'Thanks!' and had some of the cow poop. The bird flew up to the first branch of the tree and rested, then the next day flew to the next branch, until finally the bird reached the top branch. Then the farmer came out with a shotgun...

The moral of the story is, bullshit may get you to the top, but it wont keep you there.

Except for the fact that the organiser pushed the judges to put his kids in the final...and they didn't care that the park wasn't raked all day...etc.

sean petit is the real deal...he will be the next tanner, I can almost guarantee it...He has all the tricks. Just before he left I saw him throw a cork 9 over the transfer hit on blackcomb.

To add to it I did the one at the canyons and it wasnt very good. The only jumps they had were 2 hips and the second one was like landing flat. The jumps at the end of the big park (which were nice and semi big) werent even in the damn comp. Then the rails werent great either. There was like one you could spin onto and it was long and wierd. I dont mean to bitch but it wasnt very good of a super qualifier.
