Hi all,
It was a big effort to get to Mexico, our flight from london was delayed so we missed our connection in Amsterdam and LA. So a good 12 hours later was our next flight from Amsterdam to Paris to Mexico City then to Guadalajara
We had time to look around the local markets and what not and had a few days to get some time on the water. The lake is very different to ski on compared to Liquid Leisure, Being so much warmer it is a lot slower. I really like the jump ramp, so was expecting to get some big scores.one on of the practice days Stacey went straight out the front and did some damage to her ankle to unfortunaly being unable to jump and trick. Although she slalomed any way and still made the finals.
Huge ups to Stacey who jumped a personal best by about 6 meters. flying 41 meters!! Also to Emily who jumped a personal best by 2 meters.
My aim for the competition was to jump 50m. My opening jump was a solid 49, i knew i had a lot more left in the tank so i was quite confident. Jump two was about the smae spot on only an improvement by 40cm. So on my third and final i went a bit wider and a bit later but compleatley missed my kick and crashed a little but still went 48.6m. i was quite gutted because all i could think about was "what if i got my kick it was going to be massive"
Slalom wasn't to bad either i equalled my competition best of 3@12. so all in it was a great competition with some great site to see also. now im in LA for a few days kicking it and going to hit up universal studios in the next few days. until next time peace!!
