Rode in the fall classic sun. Wow what a crappy run. I am not that great, but can consistently land wake to wake jumps with a few grabs and tweaks. Sun. I could not ride at all. I fell 3 times on the first pass, granted it was a squall out there. I felt like a total dummy. A few pros were out there (Nick Ennen, and Bret V.)How embarassing. I was thrown off from the start, For some reason I was bumped from 2nd off the dock to first. All day I was prepard to go second, when at the last second the Guy who was going first said you better look at the list in the riders shack. He knew the whole time we were talking on the dock that we had switched pos. but didn't want to tell me for some reason. I am not saying its an excuse for riding like crap, but it was a little frustrating trying to get ready at the last second with the boat driver waiting on you. Plus the lake was riddled with white caps. All in all it really sucked!! Next year I will be more prepared for the switch of riding order. I would have just liked to know before so I could have been prepared menatally. I should have known by the whinning he was doing in the morning when he found out he was first off the dock. Anyway AWS put on a good show, I will be there next year to go first and whoop some butt, I will be practicing all winter. Congrats to my good friends Bret V. and Nick E. you guys totally rocked koppert!!! I will see you at the evening with the stars in Nov. Pierce County Rocks!!! You are the man Bret V.
