the ultmate boarder comp was super fun.. after squaw we headed down to ventura for the surf and skate portions. it's kind of a bad time of year for surf in ventura so it was pretty gutless surf, with some strong onshores. but all fun. highlight of the surf was shane pospisil (snow shredder) making the 5 man final. out of nowhere, shane gets the one barrel we saw at that break all week and pulls out and foes into a huge floater. it was sick. i was pretty stoked as i got to hang with nathan fletcher and hear some crazy paddle in stories and got to surf against skater chris senn. he lives in hawaii and somehow i beat him in surfing.. but he definetely kicked my ass in skating.. actually i think everyone did! haha. skating a tight verty mini ramp is not really my forte on a skate... the ramp was pretty nutter. some dudes were skating it as a full on vert ramp. really impressive watching chris, tosh townend and the other pro skaters killing it.. not to mention nathan, todd richards and kurt wastell who all made the top 10 in skating..super fun riding, hanging out and meeting the guys from the other sports.
