Some close races...In the "A" Open, Josh barely edged out Will J in the round of 4, Josh beat Will in the first race by only .061, Will comes back in the second race to win by .036, Josh moves on by only .025...Whew! Josh beat Ricky in the first race of the finals by .035, Ricky comes back in the second race to win by that one by only .146 and win it all by only .111... Meg beats Matt in the first race of the "B" by .282 and Matt comes back in the second to win by .118, not enough though, Meg moves on by only .164 Many races were won and lost between 1 and 2 seconds.

All our racers are getting faster and more confident in their skills. Way to go gang! The course was tricky but fun as hell. Everybody worked very hard all day to get it wired. Sarah hung in there after some frustration to finally come through with some great runs.

I rode a deck that Frank had made for me. It is sweet! This deck won the Silverfish.com 70's style board build-off. It has a kick on it just like Sk8Kings Axe. Richy is on to something with that deck. Get you one!

Thanks to everyone. It's always an honor to race and simply have a great time with this bunch of stoked skateboarders. MSGRS loves you all. You ARE the South's best!
