Home and Hood

After my trip to the states I had about 10 days back at home before I was heading back out there, this time to the West Coast in Hood River, Oregon.
Was nice to be home for a few days to see friends and relax, we had some great weather and wind which are the best days to be on the south coast.

A few days later I was out to Austria for meeting with RedBull, I was only there a couple of days but I got hooked up with a sick wakeboard session on the latest Master Craft, was sick but I really need to spend some more hours hitting the wake, I got some Tantrums and Railys down but for sure it’s time to spend sometime to get to the next level.

Arriving back home that evening I jumped in the van with a couple of mate and headed over to the East where the British Nationals were taking place. Was fun to see everybody, ride and hang out for the weekend.

Each year in Hood river there is a Slider Project going down, this year the Ro Sham Throw Down was the main cause of our trip.
This year we got to hire this sick house over looking the main spot at the sand bar, which is where the event was going down.
The set up was pretty sweet, loads of people turned out to watch us and the atmosphere was fun.
We had a few fun little obstacles and the format was really good. 3 heats of 8, top 3 advance from each for a 9 man final. Everyone has to bust there best wake style and slider hits and you win on overall impression.
I was just having fun riding with the crew, was cool to see everyone with a smile on their face doing what they love.
I managed to win the event which was pretty sick.
Cheers to everyone who made it happen, was really good job this year!
