P L A S T I C

After the Nationals (and the big air comp on Saturday), I headed over to Liquid on Sunday morning for my first heat in the Plastic Playground Qualifier.  This was an open event so I had to ride with the boys.  I had absolutely no chance of going through to the main event which is being held later on this month, as I was riding against all of the UK’s finest riders – but it was a rail comp and I wanted to ride.  As it turned out, I was nearly sick with nerves!  It was a much quieter event than the one I’d competed in just the day before and coupled with going up against the boys made me feel nauseous!  But I did it anyway.  I had my second heat eight hours later on that same day.  Both laps were ok, not my best and definitely not my worst.  I’m glad I rode in the end so happy days!  

Thanks I Love Wake for the photos x

N A T I O N A L S

I loved the Nationals this year.  It was a really chill event with good vibes all round.  I usually get extremely nervous before my heats, but this year I was looking forward to it as I was just happy to be riding and (I shouldn’t really say this, but) I didn’t really mind where I placed… Which is a first.  I could have ridden better as always, and practiced harder but I wasn’t upset with my performance and I came 6th overall.  Great event this year, thanks JB!

I know I haven’t blogged for about a week but I’ve been super busy with assessments, Nationals, rail comps, wake surfing, photo shoots and filming, development camps and coaching.  I’ve also got another rail comp this Saturday…  I’ll get back on here soon I promise! xx
