Corbin Park Big Move Throwdown

Last nights event was held at the scenic Corbin Wave. The level was prime with the wave maintaining its pile most of the time and the eddy was very negotiable. Judge Jud Keiser, freshly back from Boise, setup a Big Tricks Format that allowed competitors to make the most of their arsenal of moves. The top tricks were: Donkey Flip, Pan Am, Air Back Blunt and Felix - bottom line: competators were forced to step up and throw their moves bigger and sooner! We also had people surfing the wave for the second time of their boating carrear making them truly push their limits to learn and control their craft.

With over 30 people in attendance and over half spectating we were able to raise $40 for the Spokane Whitewater Park! Atheletes were pushed to learn and people steped up their rides in a big way. Top 5 went to finals: here are the final results from the night:


5th Dave Spoelstra
4th Dave Turner
3rd Dan Temple
2nd Dustin Semb

Hey Travis - Heidi just told me about HydroTherapy Sessions. Very cool concept. I love the way you are using the web to make this all happen. I have posted about it here so others might find their way to you.
