Anyone have pics of Emily? On or off the water.

(jarrod) · (jarrod) **Join Date: May 2003** 07-14-2008, 11:23 AM

It was a great event. I spotted a couple of new personal favorites. Adam Fields fricken KILLS IT. Props to him for not having the same pass as everyone else, and starting his pass off with the sickest grabbed Vulcan. Impressive! There was another guy (I forgot his name) Steeley or something? He killed it too.

Dean smith was fun to watch. Santori was soooooo smooth. I swear his legs are springs.

Bryan Hutton stuck the only 9 in his heat, but somehow didn't advance. He killed it.

Congrats to Soven. He's a machine.

J-Rod, with you on Adam Fields weekend, coming off the dock on Saturday and busting the Bee Sting, even the other pro's were saying WOW.

I think the other rider your talking about is Jr. rider Steel Laferty, and he was riding with a hip pointer that he got in Phoenix and that was his first ride in 2 weeks. Smooth rider and a very cool kid, and he just turned 15.

(jarrod) · (jarrod) **Join Date: May 2003** 07-14-2008, 3:15 PM

Yes! Steel Laferty. Fun to watch.

mendo247 07-14-2008, 4:59 PM

Yeah Becky was super pumped about riding! Way to represent Mendo!

Randy, took me a while to stumble in here, but glad I found it. Great pics. I love that grab you caught with Nicola. Nice work!

I won't be in Wisconsin or Oklahoma, but I look forward to seeing your photo report. Here are a couple shots I managed to snag at the end of the day. I think there is another Walt sighting in there too.

nice shots guys!!

hey does anyone know how long that rooftop rail is? anyone gotta good guess as to what the angles of that thing are?

(teamvaldez) · (teamvaldez) **Join Date: Apr 2003** 07-15-2008, 9:30 AM

Gosh darnit Walt, I saw you and didn't realize that was you! One of these days Walt! You were taking shots right in front of the tower where we all were camped out for the weekend and I thought you doused your cell phone.

walt 07-15-2008, 9:42 AM

Sorry I missed you again.

I don't remember shooting in front of the tower though. That was probably Walt Ostarly. I had a grey Wakeworld shirt on and the other walt was wearing a black DC shirt.

Awesome pictures Randy, really wish I could have been there. Picked up Maureen at the airport last night, she was wiped out. She had a great time!

(teamvaldez) · (teamvaldez) **Join Date: Apr 2003** 07-15-2008, 12:55 PM

Yea, Jimmy, I claim no responsabilty for your lovely wifes tiredness. (ok, maybe a little) but we were always on our best behavior! (ok, maybe a little) I promise I will never hit Jimmy in the head again with a water bottle!! GOSH, but did they tell you what a great shot it was?

Walt, I think it was you, cuz I remember thinking to myself....who is that crazy guy in the water? But then that could have been any of the Walts or Randy for that matter!

Oh well, next year!

Wait till y'all see the shots from the closing party!!

(teamvaldez) · (teamvaldez) **Join Date: Apr 2003** 07-15-2008, 1:36 PM

Hey Randy, I just got this email from Jim Powers!

Hey Robyn
Good times in Reno!
I think Randy's casino photos need to be impounded under the "what happens in Reno, stays in Reno" doctrine.
Looking forward to seeing everyone in Pleasant Prairie!
Jim

walt 07-15-2008, 2:48 PM

How was the closing party Robin ?

(teamvaldez) · (teamvaldez) **Join Date: Apr 2003** 07-15-2008, 4:38 PM

It was awesome but I know there is a story to follow for the front page. (check your PM Walt)

(wakedad33) · (wakedad33) **Join Date: Oct 2005** 07-15-2008, 5:36 PM

Robyn, I would love to post the one of Doc Soven, Jim Powers & Dean Smith, but somehow I don't think it would be up on the site very long

(wakedad33) · (wakedad33) **Join Date: Oct 2005** 07-15-2008, 7:44 PM

Travis, looks like your new lens is working, nice shots!!! Nice shot of JD, we were shooting from the same spot on the point for sure, here is one I got of JD

did anyone video the award ceremony, specifically Phillip's speech. Wanted to see if I could get a copy of it from someone to show Michele. Thanks, and I agree with Jim, "what happens in Reno, stays in Reno".

(teamvaldez) · (teamvaldez) **Join Date: Apr 2003** 07-16-2008, 8:44 AM

There were a few videos going, I am sure that one will pop up. Philips speech was eloquent and moving, the whole place was on their feet at the end. (anybody remember last years?) LOL! It was a proud moment. Wayne, you should have seen your face, you were beaming!!

(lf23) · (lf23) **Join Date: Nov 2007** 07-16-2008, 10:59 AM

Despite how many tournaments he's won, after that speech I've never been happier as a parent seeing how great he felt about himself.

(jarrod) · (jarrod) **Join Date: May 2003** 07-16-2008, 12:16 PM

I've been riding with Dean Smith and Kyle Alberts this week. Both said they appreciated Sovens speech and were very impressed.

I'd like to see it.

walt 07-16-2008, 1:24 PM

Cool story WS and thanks for sharing it with us.

J-Rod,
Give me a call.
