nice to see Spencer Martin place in the 18 and under. Was he the only local to win?

Awesome day! I'm recovering today. I'm not sure why I put my body through this at my age. I went out to represent the 40+ with kids. I think I held my own. I had to duel a girl that could have been my daughter :blink: Thanks to Frank, he let everyone know that too right before our duel. Regardless, it was worth the pain I am feeling today. Thanks for a great time! Carrie, thanks for the treats!

i know the talent level was at an all time high but i was shocked yesterday to hear madriverjack didn't qualify. Looking at his run here i think he skied great and landed a combo off the bottom jump. He was robbed.

shoulda had my spot at least. he was smiling the whole afternoon though, i dont think much gets to him.

Or mine. My overall speed was undoubtedly the slowest of the 32, my airs were lame, my skiing at the top was sloppy. Luckily I held it together at the bottom relatively quickly, presumably where it counts.

There was a decent showing of local boys under 18 that showed up. No formal training, little race experience, park skiers.............hacks just like us :grin: Loved seeing the second AZ generation getting in the mix!

I'm still working on my pics... kinda hard in the beautiful sunshine on the deck at Sundown. Beer in hand is nice though.
