I'll be going because my little brother Kevin Bird will also be representing the delta competing in the outlaw division

Tear it up Cory.......... don't forget to take your teeth out before your ride, you don't want those bad boys popping out while you are riding, it will make you lose your focus : )

Tammy, do you know the times of each of the days for the wakeboarding events? I have a couple of those days off and since I live in Bakersfield, I would like to try to make it.

How do you get to compete?? Do you have to win your class??

Alright Cory! Rip it up, dude! I know you'll be serving it up big time! Show all them folks how it's done in NorCal!

Good Luck, Cory-Sun! John and I will never forget the first trick 90 surface to faceplant years ago. Cory try this,,,okay....<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/lol.gif" border=0>. Bring Ol' Yella just for good luck.

Hi Brandon, I'm not sure of the times. I will try and find out. they are running 2 lakes, wakeboarding has one so I'm sure it will be going on all day. <BR> <BR>Yes you have to win your class to go.

Good Luck Cory. I like Aruns Advice.

Good luck to everybody going to the US Championships in Bakersfield this year <BR> <BR>Brandon/Cassandra K check out <a href="http://www.intleague.com" target="_blank">www.intleague.com</a> <BR> <BR>Tammy one lake will be for skiing and the other will be for wakeboarding and kneeboarding. You really need to watch the outlaw kneeboarders they are crazy and will put on a good show

When do the wakeboarders ride?? All 4 days or two or what?? I looked at the website and didn't see anything.

GOOD LUCK CORY!!! <BR>I RODE WITH DAVE AND HIS WIFE LAST WEEK. <BR>HE SAID YOUVE BEEN TEARING IT UP AS OF LATE. A CLEAN 360 AND YOUR RUN WILL BE ALL GRAVY. <BR>GOOD LUCK TO JENNIFER AS WELL. <BR> <BR>(Message edited by PEEEJAY on September 18, 2003)

Most importantly HAVE FUN!

Good Luck Cory, <BR>Smoke everyone in your path!! <BR>Alan Bogdanoff

Good luck Cory!! but... I didn't know that INT let Nuts ride in the comps. They must of changed the rules. BTW I don't think you will be able to bribe the judge with a $20. So ride your ass off.

Usually the running order will be announced the evening before if you check in then or first thing in the morning at the 8:00am or so riders meeting. Riders will ride days 1 and 2, day 3 is for the top three riders in each division. The wakeboard lake will be running 2 divisions at a time. ie: one boat will pull Jr. Novice and when that rider is done the second boat will take off with maybe Novice. (these are examples only). Usually the "boat" change will take place for ballast at the Men's Advanced division. Then at Expert and Outlaw more weight will be added. <BR>My son has rode at the "nationals" for 3 years and this is what the "running orders" have been like in the past. Last year we got the running order about a week before going, a "friend" from Arkansas e-mailed it to us. Don't know how he got it, but it sure came in handy. Hey, why not e-mail your state cord. or the headquarters. (they have probably already left though). <BR>Texas didn't have an INT this year. So ya'll, "Let er rip"!

Is anybody going boarding in Bakersfield before the comp?

To answer some questions, I am in Bakersfield and spent Saturday putting up the announcing tower and spent today in meetings. The lakes are pretty awsome and better yet the weather has been 95 and sunny. I think everyone will have a great time at the new site. As for the running order, we have it and its to much for me to post, but hopefully everyone has the cell numbers of their coordinators. If you have any questions I will try to check the web site tomorrow night and I will try to answer your questions then. I will tell you that we will take the top four for the Saturday championship round. Later <BR> <BR>Thanks <BR>Mike &amp; Suan Riffle <BR>Kansas INT <BR>Midwest District Coordinators

Kewl, top 4 riders! Thing about having the Nationals in Texas, it's hurricane season...All kinds of "weather" happens around Houston and the Gulf right now. Bumping the comp up 2 weeks is a good thing. <BR>Ya'll have fun, and remember, you boarded your best all summer against your competition at the state level to get where your at. Whether you are 1st or 21st, hold your head up, this is just for FUN. You will be no better or worse after it's all over. (Just a little "broker". <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/happy.gif" border=0>

Hey Cory, How did you finish?

Where was Cory? He never showed up.

What did everyone think about the lake? <BR>I was in MN riding and filming all summer. I come home after being gone the whole summer and see that INT Nats are on the lake 2 down from mine. I was stoked. I know our lakes are shallow but for CA its not to bad eh? <BR> <BR>Brennan <BR><a href="http://www.couchboys.com" target="_blank">www.couchboys.com</a>

Mike the INT state cord. of Kansas (see above) made a post on <a href="http://www.wakeboard.com" target="_blank">www.wakeboard.com</a> concerning the wakeboard lake. (several other people also)...It was too shallow and if INT goes back next year the lake will be drained and dug about 2 feet deeper. The other lake was good though. He said everyone had a good time and the location was good.
