So the last couple of comps ive been having a bit of a nightmare. For one reason or another ive had some pretty bad deals.
So going into the event i was pretty nervous. Wanted to do well at my home spot.
My first heat was against Toby Raw and Tom Court. I was pretty powered on my 8m RPM. It all  started off pretty badly. I had a few big crashes and wasnt too good.  I then had to compose myself and layed down a few nice moves, railey blind, s bend blind with a pop out, s bend pass, blind judge, backmobe,  NIS and a shifty to wrapped.
I was stoked as it put me through to the next round.
Next round was against James Boulding and Luke Whiteside. I knew i had to put a good heat together to beat these too guys. Ended up having the best heat of my year so far.
Started off with a big railey to blind, sbend to blind, shifty 3, sbend pass, blind judge, switch blind judge, back mobe, kiteloop pass, slim and a blind 313.
After a long wait, i went through to the final with a win.
In the final i was joined by Sam Light, and James Boulding. Just before the final the wind picked up quite a lot. I was totally overpowered on my 8, while Sam and James put some awesom passes down on there 6 and 7m.
I took some massive crashes in the final, as i couldnt deal with the power. In the end i did a few crowd pleasing tricks including a big board off and a megaloop kankan.
The final result was Sam Light in 1st. James Boulding in 2nd and me in 3rd.

It was great event and organised really well by the BKSA considereing there were 71 competitors.

Thanks to Simon Gardiner for taking the pics

So i went over to Rhosneigr for the RHosneigr park jam. Benn Todd had build some unbelievable sliders and kickers for us to hit and had organised and amazing event.
Everything was sorted from an amazing camp site, food in the morning and evening, and a mental party for the saturday night which went OFF!!!!
On friday there was little to no wind so we started off by putting the flat bar and kicker in the water. We sessioned that behind the boat which was a little sketchy because of the choppy conditions.
On Saturday the sun was out and the wind was building. I started on a 13 fuel for a quick session before the obsticles came out to get used to riding finless and with bindings. Its been a while.
We then all chipped in to set up the sliders aand kicker, changing the angles to get it just right. Once that was done everyone got involved. Everyone started pretty skatey but after an hour we were all hitting the obsticles HARD.
I took a pretty harsh wiepout off the A frame managing to hit all 3 legs, as i was pretty overpowered on my 13. I then rode my 10 and had the perfect power.

At the end of the session we all voted for who we thought won different catagories.
 I ended up winning the slider section, coming 2nd on the kicker, and 2nd overall to Dave Hastilow( big ups to him)
Pretty stoked considering ive never hit a slider with a kite.

Big thanks to Benn Todd, Kitty, and Max for putting on such and awesom event
