It’s been chaos since I returned from Chicago on Sunday. I’ve been digging through a little over 200 potential photos from the contest and finally narrowed them down to about 98 photos between here and DIG. I’ve got 80ish “scraps” that you can find below from the contest with bad captions. Give them a look through and let me know what you think in the comments! Oh, and since the video on ESPN turned out so damn good by Dylan Pfohl, I’ve got that at the bottom as well! BOOM!
The first of a few rider meetings…
Judging the wind…
Something about the logos caught my attention. I’m not thirsty or anything… just something about them.
Big Daddy being… Big Daddy. Hippie hopper!
I’m going to have some trouble telling you who all these photos are of. Sorry…
I believe that’s Big Daddy…
Maddog
Seth Klinger
Maddog was front flipping this jump like 3rd go. It was nuts.
KC Badger laying it out.
Big Daddy Flippin’
Drew Bezanson allyoop 360.
Ryan Guettler getting upside down.

I’ve got a lot of Big Daddy photos…

Looking over the mess of dirt.
Brian Hunt doing nothing at all…
Just using Mark for some depth.
I’m not sure why it still amazes me how well Scotty Cranmer can ride dirt.
Colin Mackay getting his 3 whips in.
KC Badger turning it down a notch.
360 options…
Booster
I’m going to call this guy Superman. But in reality, it’s just Lance Mosley.
360 turndowns are always good in my book.
Seth Klinger 3’s
James Nutter getting nuts.
X-up candy bar? That’s some Mat Hoffman stuff…
Drew “I’ve been attacked by a bear” Bezanson dropping a canon ball into a dirt pool.
Style points!
I told you there was a few rider meetings…

Classic.

Just a smidge too early on the photo. Corey Bohan allyoop 360 lookback.
I believe that’s Guettler getting upside down.
Ryan Nyquist and Maddog both do 720’s
Bam! Clint Reynolds.
Chris Doyle trucks mid train.
Timing off on this, but Brian Foster rules.
Cam White 720’s
Corey Bohan has style for… ever.
Darden has no ACL. That’s no problem.
Mike Hucker Clark hucks!
Anything Dennis Enarson does, Ryan Nyquist does it backwards!
Catching the train.
Chris Doyle 720’s on the occasion…
Bam!
Ryan Nyqust and Drew Bezanson raising the roof… or… the clouds?
Money Bags.
Welp, that’s it. I hope the captions were cheesy enough for you. Trying to get this all posted up quick isn’t a good mix for coming up with captions. Thanks to Red Bull, Fuzzy Hall, and everyone who put in work for the contest. Kevin Porter and Dave Leep for letting us crash at your place. Jon Wells for the laughs and driving the party van, and everyone else who made the weekend awesome!
Make sure you check out a few more photos over on DIG that I shot!
Here’s that badass video I was talking about as well!
