Nationals Day 1/2: Dirty Water

So most of day 1 was postponed. After Mens D and half of Wakeskate, officials stopped the event due to water testing that revealed high levels of bacteria in the river due to recent storms. Before that, Nick rode for us for Mens D. The conditions were very challenging with high winds. The other two riders in Nick's division fell quickly, but Nick strung together a solid run of clean, grabbed, fundamental tricks that earned him the top spot in his heat and the highest score in all of Mens D. Unfortunately, Joel had a few falls in his wakeskate run and missed a qualifying spot by a fraction of a point. Right now that leaves us tied at 6th place going into tomorrow. Women's B is first tomorrow. We are looking forward to a strong day-stay tuned to this blog and twitter for up to the minute updates and pictures.
