Hey Guys
Last weekend I was up at Chasewater for the Ryan & Tony Birch memorial contest which was also the last stop of the Nautique Riders league which I have ridden in throughout the season. Over the weekend there was a great vibe with live music on to entertain the crowd. There was also a System 2.0 cable courtesy of Tim Woodhead which gave the riders something to do in between the rounds. I had a go on the System 2.0 to see what its like, I enjoyed my skate sesh on it but it felt a little slow as I'm used to riding behind a boat. Overall it is really good for learning air tricks on the wakeboard. In the wakeboard comp I was happy with my riding in the qualifying round with a smooth and stylish run putting me me at the top in my category. Later on in the day Midlands Nautique took me for a demo ride on my wakeskate which was a really good ride pulling out my top wake to wake trick, hs fs 360 behind the awesome Byerly Limited edition Nautique, it has a perfect wake!
On day 2 the action was hot again with the finals and the pro competition. In the final I didn't ride my best but pulled just enough out the bag to claim 2nd on the podium. The pros were great to watch as they were nailing some solid tricks, they all battled hard but Nick Davies with his unique style of riding and technical trick took 1st place in pro men's. The pro woman's were just as fun to watch as Jules Haley, Louise Nott and Robbie Rendo all battled it out to claim 1st. The top rider of the three on the day was Robbie Rendo 1st for pro women's.
Ill be back to inform you on the next sesh...
