Corby and Dirt Wars at Chicksands

Hey all,

Had a sweet weekend, Met up with Chops on friday and drove up to Corby Skate park.
Had a sick sesh there with Sam Pilgrim and Oscar Golding. Learned a few new tricks double whips, flip x one foot and flairs was stoked on those but was super hot in there. and we only stayed for half the day. I stayed at Chops place that night and we then drove up to Chicksands for Dirt Wars. Got there around lunch time checked out the jumps and did a bit of spade work to fine tune them and had a few practise runs.
The open comp started and i was one of the judges, they had 45min jam sesh and the top five from there went through to the finals everyone rode well with some sick stunts getting thrown down on the last. After the 45 min jam we went on to the pro's and we had a 30 min jam sesh where the top five also went through to the finals. had a sweet time riding with everyone was like the old days when we used to ride chicksands loads. Phil Auckand was doing some sick twists on the second and the only one to twist it.
After the jam we went on to the open finals. three runs best two count. All the riders had good runs but there was a clear winner with huge flips on the second and sweet threes on the last Tom Ren took the win with ease. But all the riders were sick have to mention Sam Huniset who was getting really close to landing three double whips and double whips definitely have to watch this young gun.
The Pro finals were straight after and with a few practise runs we got started, I was third to drop in and did a clean run, one foot x on the first, whip on the second and flip one foot x on the last. the next two runs didn't go to plan but still managed to get third. Ryan Nangle was super consistent with sick barrel role's on the last he took the win and Phil Auckland came in second. apparently the top three were tied and they had to get other riders to confer with. Was a sweet day and wish i could have stayed longer but had to head back to Southampton because Chops and I had a Birthday to go to. Such a messy night but super fun.

Next weekend its 4A trails jam so looking forward to that.

Till next time stay Golden ;)
