BattleUK II - Attack of the Cones
Well, i’m a bit late in writing, but since BattleUK was my first event last year, I guess I should write something now that I’ve been going to competitions for a full year.
I’m pretty happy with my performance. My goal was to get into the quarter finals, which i did. I also almost made it into the semi finals. Me and Mark Kempton both had to skate an extra run because the judges couldn’t decide who to send into the semis. In the end Mark won, and I left proud of my self, carrying a new resolve to add some more technical tricks to my arsenal. Overall I placed 9= (which means i tied with 4 other skaters for 9th place) out of 22 skaters, i think.
While i was there I got a new pair of the 2008 Seba Highs, which i’m working on breaking in currently.
Naomi and I also discussed details of starting a world freestyle team, which i’ll write more about soon.
