Don't ask why I just thought of this, but for some reason this kid's antics came to mind today. The guy seemed to know a ton of pros, and he was damn funny, announcing "Wade Vanderschley" on the DH course, debating with a DH spectator about whether Juzzo or Sam Hill wore the number 3, or announcing that Paul Basagoitia was "riding a bumblebee" (black Kona, yellow DeeMax wheels) during the jump contest. It's too bad the Sea Otter staff almost had to confiscate his bullhorn during the jump contest; his commentary was much better than the official announcers'. Anybody know who this guy was/is? I know this is a little late, but whoever he was, he made Sea Otter just that much more enjoyable for me and my friends.

I never saw micro with the bullhorn it was only taylor (i_know_sanjay). He brought it to the BIKE mag a wards too and made quite a ruckus. At least he's funny so it wasn't really annoying.

"Yaaaaaay skin suits! saving .000001 seconds!"

Ya, and Kyle Strait brought it up, and instead of using the microphone to talk he used that :)

"e-chunk it, e-back" :confused: WTF? the ever evolving English language never ceases to amaze me.

I know you mean "don't start crap because I have a gang of back up". But regular people might get confused and think you mean to say you have "e-chunky bacon back" which would be a terrible mistake. :eek:

We camped next to him at Sea Otter. Good times. People would go by and honk at him(we were right by the road and across from the DH course), he'd yell back,"YYYYYYYYEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAH, f'in shred!" Fun stuff. Cool guy, too. :thumb:

He was a hoot to talk to in the hotub at Snowmass last year.
