I don't have time to go into the whole story right now so I will throw out a few highlights of the Santa Barbara Ocean Festival Skateboard contest. I'm writing a full story for local press and CW.
Lynn Cooper won the California Freestyle Championship Open Spaosored division in a VERY close four man finals. Everyone liked the throw down style format, but most of the freestylers that competed still prefer the 2min. routine format.
Gary Holl won the masters division.
The Slalom event drew in top names, like Hackett, Olson.
The game of skate was basically a face off between Al Garcia's team and the top three placers in the freestyle contest, VERY interesting event.
The street event had no sign-ups and turned into a Powell Demo that was wild and crazy. The central prop was a 1982 Pontiac that got totally destroyed...very cool! You gotta see the pictures of this!
The dudes from Japan ripped! We had a lot of fun with them. They gave me a bottle of Saki!
The rookies were outstanding.
The quality of skating all around was as good as it gets anywhere on earth.
The weather was perfect. The crowd was modest but really loved the show.
There were issues about every aspect of this first time event that were less than perfect and did not go acording to plan but the bottom line is that the public loved all of it and it is sure to be a much bigger and better event next year.
Thanx to Jack Smith, Gary Holl and Al Garcia for running their parts of the event.
Complete results tonight.
Complete DVD and story by next weekend.

One event at the World championships of Slalom was Cyber slalom, It was held in a roller rink,Because of the layout of the race wich called for flat smoothe surface, there was a delay in the start of the event and was great to see alot of old schoolers busting out in freestyle and 360s. One of the promoters anounced a on the spot 360 contest and everyone jumped in going at it! Chaput,Gesmer,Hackett,Oshea,Kealon,Olson, were battling it out on barrowed street decks so with some proding I had to show these guys some spinns. Instead of going big on the tail I went with two footed nose wich is way harder especially on a foriegn board. I hoped that I would not fall on my A on a slippery surface and pulled some OK spinns and won,Alot of people can not believe I can still bust it out! Keep on Spinning.............

Hey Marc, If I remember right I think about 44 or so... sorry! Pope can kill it on his steel wheels and has gone into the 100s, He was not able to ride them at the event because of surface problems, The feat he did was great, on slippery painted asphalt. And thats why he is the 2004 World Champ, Sk8kings has Two 360 Champs Now!
