The end of one of the best trips I have ever done! So it was a ten day trip to Australia, longest time I have ever been out of the country and it was awesome! Made a million new friends, all the shops we went to were packed with kids and all the sk8 parks we went to it felt like we were just having a good session with the locals.
The last 3 days of the trip were the BMX games. It was a cool contest which had Mini, Park and Dirt. I entered the Park comp. The course was a lot different than most contests we ride in the States. The ramps were pretty small but it was cool to see all the locals kill it. I found the lines I was psyched on and it was two 60 second runs which I like. I qualified 1st and ended up in 1st so I was stoked on that. I also got to do one of my new tricks; 720 invert so that was cool!
The next day was Dirt. Ryan Guettler had something up his sleeves but I know everybody had been having problems just jumping them. He didn’t get to do what he wanted but he still ended up in Second so that was tight.
I got back to Greenville two days ago. I was feeling the jet-lag like crazy but I’m feeling way better now so until next time. Peace.
