Understood. However, when you made this statement: in context to the previous comments, the reason I asked for clarification from you, was regarding what exact context you meant it to be. It appeared as though your meaning was that those judging results were of mere opinion, and when it came down to it, didn't really mean much at all, based on the fact that everybody has their own opinion.


I still don't see the relevancy of comparing the judges opinions to just anyone elses, based on the simple fact that everyone else' opinions don't really make a difference to the outcome of the final scores decided by the judges.

Nobody has said anything about comparing judges opinions to those of others. Not sure where your coming up with this.

It was only in lieu of the previous comments leading up to yours, that's why I was asking for clarification of your meaning. Although, what I mean by "comparison" is that you stated it's "pure opinion" and further elaborated that there is no "system" to judging riders on their performance. However, my point is, whether there's a definite "system" or not, and regardless of whether they judge based on "purely opinion" or not, their mere opinions are what decides the final scores. So, it makes no difference as to whether they judge based on "pure opinions" or not. Correct?

The Ride and Grind videos are now up for all you pervs. :smile: They have been combined into two clips - part 1 and part 2.

The Pro qual and Pro main vids now have the riders names in the title. Since the scoring was 1/3 of the points from qual and 2/3 from main you can judge for yourself. A picture of the scores is attached.

I haven't seen any photos of Lee's new Scarecrow move so I pulled some out of the vids.

Thank you for the words guys, unfortunately I had a bit of problem with my ski, right before competing,

I had a bit of tuning problem in the beginning of the week, due a changing of fuel, and I had to re-pitch my prop and shiot load of tunningneed it
night before we changed nozzles and re pitch the prop, and in the morning around 11AM me and Brian went to test before my run
so everything was almost perfect, and i had a deep sub backflip and hydrolock the engine, and it busted the cylinder right off the cases, with less that a hour to start the competition, I rushed to shore and got the ski load up and we drove to Rick Roy house because the had way more tools and parts,
so me, Brian, Rick and Hiro tried to get my ski fixed, we end up having to put some studs in the cases due the stripped threads, but we couldn't reach for the pistons rings when we had the studs on, after all that was around 12:30.
So after was all messed up, I talked with ZAck POWERHOUSE and he offered me to ride his Circus boat which hits pretty good, but he ski were never it the the tech inspection I wasn't able to use,

after all this Rick Roy saw me and Brian frustration and he offered me to ride one of his boats, so I decided to go for it, remember that was my second time on a Xfs, first time was in JAnuary in Daytona. I didnt even had a chance to test before the comp or warm up, that was it.

I'm really sorry to all to all my sponsors I didn't have any time or sticker to put on the ski I competed,

That I'm sure was a major let down sorry to hear it, I'm sure you will make a great showing next year.

On the plus side it is great to see how the community came together to help out a brother in need. That there says a lot about the stand up people representing this sport. Pretty cool
