Well I made it to the finals which was head to head battles and wound up winning my first battle against Hiro, My second battle was against some Japanese rider I had never heard of. I rode really good with only 1 touch and I guess the judges thought he rode better than me. I lost that battle and wound up getting 7th place. But honestly I rode so well I was just stoked on my run and now getting super pumped for the finals in new Orleans!
After the conest was over and Matty was crowned the winner we went to a club in Kanazawa where we had a world battle planned. The battle was between me, Viki, Mathias, against York and Hiro. The club was packed watching the battle and we won over the crowds applause and took the title for the world battle! We beat the Japan team!
After the Club shows York and I headed directly to the airport to drop me off. He decided to stop off on the way to end my trip with a relaxing talk at the Katmasu river beach front. The trip really made me realize just how special it is to have friends all over the world that will take care of you. Thanks York for everything.
I returned home on Monday and I came down with a very bad sickness. I am guessing it was from all the traveling, riding, and maybe not drinking enough water. So right now I have a bad fever, hot and cold chills, and very weak stomach and along with a bunch of other illnesses I would rather not speak of. So now I have canceled my trip to Chicago and my plan is to get well and prepare for Voodoo Jam! 10 more days to the last stop of the flatland world Circuit! See you there!
