| veiw from our Chalet....Life could be worse!!! |
Im over here in Europe right meow..life is good , Im hanging in switzerland at the moment but I just spent the weekend in France at the Chatel Mountainstyle competition.
My good mate Ramon , his brother Jerome and myself cruised to the event together in the Huck bus loaded with a bunch of bikes and bike riding apperatus and not much organisation .
We rolled into Chatel on thursday and cut a few laps on the sweet trails on the mountain and then checked out the course ..It was pretty burly ...Big drops and jumps and Cheese grater man eating rocky landings, It was pretty obvieous that crashing wasn't gonna be that fun!

| last jump was about 55ft |
We kicked off at 11am with our first run..I was having a sweet run but washed out on a FRICKIN BERM ...I was so pissed ! of all the crazey shit on the course I had to crash on a berm ahahah... any ways I had to stick it on my second run or I was gonna finish last! , Luckily i had a sweet second run and punished the course! There was a pretty lofty road gap which i fliped ..Scary as hell as it came around really slow and if it diddnt work out I would have HISTORY! anyways the run was pretty decent I wound up in 8th place overall. Im pretty pumped on that and also happy to be un injured (aside from my destroyed elbow) heading into Crankworx whistler in a few weeks!
Ramon was slaying the course , He ended up 12th after hangin it looose through the midlle section and Naccing down the road gap ..att-er BOY! BOOM!
We had a massivly rad weekend Huckin the course , ripping Chatel trails and causing trouble in the evenings! hahaha.
Cheeers the the Chatel crew for having us and putting on a kick ass event!!
