Thanks to new sponsor Tork Trux! Micah loves them and they are so easy to install!

O-Dawg came down from Wisconsin with the Alvarez brothers and picked up Bubby and Micah for the Tork Trux mini ramp contest. Micah took 1st in Advanced last night and will be competing in his first pro/am at Get a Grip Skatepark in Tork Trux second stop today. Apparently there is a pretty big crowd and props to the Cosmic youngin's who will represent today.

We had a few milestones this past weekend. Micah had his 100th competition in Athens, OH! He won the expert division and Sean got 3rd in the intermediate!

Afterwards we went to Skateopia and met Brewce who was a real cool guy. The guys skated the Lula bowl, the full pipe and the big wooden bowl.
Then we capped off the weekend with a Cosmic mini ramp jam at Gavin's. Good food, conversation and skating.

The Washington St. Bridge

It was a fun Bluegrass State Games! Micah received silver medals in sponsored bowl and street and gold in sponsored mini ramp.

What a trip! Bubby, Micah and I hit skateparks in Morehead, KY, Charleston, Beckley and Fayetteville, WV, Thomasville, NC and finally Double Decker Skatepark, 50,000 square feet of madness in Fayetteville, NC. In addition to Double Decker, we had a fun mini jam session at the new Atomic mini ramp in Fayetteville as well. We drove all night Sat to make church arriving home at 6:55am. We got lot's of footage and made a bunch of new friends. It was a blast! Here are some pica from Carolina Skateboarding -- scroll towards the middle/bottom. Here is some vid from Double Decker.

King of the Ams was a lot of fun. The only downer, was that our friend Sean Brooks got sick and could not skate most of the weekend. We still enjoyed having him though. The Penniman's were super gracious hosts. Micah had one of his best finishes ever. He qualified 2nd in the mini ramp and out of his 3 total runs, he only had one fall. He ended up with 1st place in the mini. Bowl was different, run with a 6 wall format. Micah finished 2nd in bowl. In street micah placed 17th which made him the last street competitor to qualify for the finals in March.
