I am wondering about competing, I am still developing in the park....i can throw down switch and normal 3's and only reg 5s and 1's, I am pretty solid at rails but i am still working on the down rails.... I am 15 so i dont know what age group I fall under but should i compete because if kids are throwing switch 7's and 9's I will save myself the embarrasment

im pissed I can't compete this year... some gaper fag cut me off and I ended up in the woods wit a broken thumb...

I didnt think it was that big of a deal til i got it x rayed and it was cracked in half... Now I have a cast on and my parents are fucking crazy about not letting me hit jumps or rails of any kind...

I'll be out all day sat taking pics and getting some video.

say hi if you see me, i'll be in tan pants with black pin stripes, brown coat, black helmet, black goggles. and i'll be rockin' delamed t-halls with duct tape on the nose to hold them togethor temporarily.

was it a double front or double back thrown at Superpark? either way still sort of sick.

Scott is sick. He was in ESPIONAGE. I still remember his switch 10's or 12's at MSO3 which only got him 3rd place. here is a couple pictures of scott at superpark if you guys don't remember him.

i refer you to Cold Fusion by Warren Miller. Kovtun can be found in the Boyne MI segment with the schrab brothers, but throwing much better tricks.

haha all this Kovtun hype is great

I wasn't able to compete, but it was such a SICK day. people throwing down on all events. Big Congrats goes out to Jake Jones, quarter pipe comp winner. Huge congrats to Tom Price for the massive switch 9's... that jump was pretty burly going straight into it, I can't imagine switch! And congrats to Simon Montgomery throwin' down in the rail jam and takin' first.

Drew your switch 7's were so fucking stylie. As you were coming down the second run I was standing around at the bottom watching and was in awe. I complimented you and you said thank you. I feel honored to have talked to the mighty drew.
