This year was definitely a learning experience for me as far as competitions go. I have always been able to place really high every year and compete at the top of my game, and this year I started slow and eventually found my groove, but that groove wasn't a winner in the eye of the judges.

San Diego Surf contest______1st

Kernville_________________13th

Bob's Hole________________17th

Vail Invintational___________6th

Animas River Days__________6th

Fibark____________________6th

I was cursed with sixth this year, but sixth is better than seventh, hopefully next year I can find the winning groove, because I know its there.
