While at press conference up at Lake Arrowhead today with Governor Schwarzenegger, a crew in a nice Nautique figured out what was going on and picked a line right in the background of the camera shot. It was perfect since the event was about how the region is open for business after the fires.

The passes pick up after the first speaker. Unfortunately the good crash was just outside the camera shot!

...the whole time all i could think was "Damn, and I almost brought by board with me!"

Classic!

Even more classic is the fact that my department's cheif is in the video. He is the big bald guy, in his class A uniform, in the left rear of the video (speaker's right).

michael z,

Where in Toronto are you a firefighter? I visited a station in Toronto about 2 months ago while on vacation. It was in the ghetto. I think the name of the street was "Dundas???" It was not too far from young street.

Its true, I am still alive. I know the tabloids had reported things differently.

The guy riding was just throwing some W2W jumps, nothing special. It was just cool to see someone riding.

...thought I would share just in case any of the riders were WW'ers.
