I am about 27 shots thru a 36 exp roll....:rolleyes: I was confused because my camera wasn't rewinding. :D

If I get shots I will bring them to Chelan.

I mostly took shots if I could of the race runs of RDR/BW, WWU, SMDH guys. That is a lot of kids when you are shooting 35mm! I was having old dirty camera electronic issues so some guys were stuck with a 30sec (unusable) exposure shots. :angry: Time to fix or upgrade......;)

I love my camera but it is old and been through dust hell (MTB, MX, Desert racing) not to mention snow and rain. It feels so balanced in my hand but even cheaper newer models perform better....they just are shaped different. :(

Grubb has some video photage.

I wanted to be up on the hill Sat evening for practice but the hiking and SWATTING misquito's during XC made me think washing up and pizza was in order. My head still has welts from misquitos! and my arms....oy-vay. :) waaaa waaaa

I won't hold back if I got a shot I will give it to you or a freind/teammate at Chelan.

We will have to see.

The picture itself is probably fine. You can't tell to much of a bobble when it is a still photo...you could look like you were charging.

All I know is in that first chicane off the road, after the little ramp/stump jump, the experts on up were flying thru and clipping either that tree on the left or the stump on the right Didn't see to much in the way of crashes but waaaaaay to many guys were on the edge. It was cool to watch everyone float through there.

The older of the Team Psycho juniors came through there and hit that stump.....his rear end was clearing brush from BOTH sides of the course right before he made it to the road. :) He recovered nicely though...I would have been a stain on the boulder as you exit the chicane. ;) :)

i still dont recall there being a hacked open log. (but ill bet it was actually there) is it the next big jump after the small drop into the jump, then right hander into left hander into the jump in the pic? say that 10 times fast....

left hand corner in the trees, one drop, then another, into some soft stuff, little zig zag then that jump, to a right hand corner after it. I dont think it had the cut in it last year, but maybe I am mistaken.

The DVD video from Winthrop is done. (I'm waiting for a release form to be returned for some of the music, but shouldn't be a big deal).

Building a downloadable sample now.
