Spring is in full force in Hatteras! I love this time of the year! The amount of rubber we are wearing is getting less by the session, and the sunset gets later and later giving us a longer day and more time on the water. This past Friday was warm and windy. Brandon Scheid and I joined Sam Bell, Bryan Elkus, Ryan Evans, and few other riders for a spring warm up session on the kicker and JWCF flat bar(aka. J-Dub) in the REAL Slider Park. The Slick was fairly empty and everyone was charging!
Each rider had his own line; Brandon was punting himself off of the kicker throwing huge frontside 3's and Whirlybirds, basically ruling the kicker on his LF Hi-Fi 9m! Sammy was either spinning off the kicker or mach-ing across the J-Dub, usually both in the same high speed run! Bryan Elkus split before the rest of us due to being overpowered on his LF Havoc 14m, but not before laying down a few solid nose presses. I spent most of my session switching back and forth between the J-Dub, the kicker, and gaping the different points of land around the Slick on my 12m Havoc and Influence 138.
We are starting to compile footage from this spring. Keep your eyes out for a short edit on LF TV soon!
