BY FAR THE BEST COMPETITION I HAVE EVER BEEN TO. There should be another in Mammoth in the fall.

Results:
1st place: Joe Campbell, 35points
2nd place: Cody Williams, 55points
3rd place: Tyler Nail, 60points
4th place: Jarin Erickson, 60points

That's weird! Isn't it usually the person(s) with the *highest* point score who wins? It's in reverse, it seems. In any case, congrats guys! Also, what about the beginner category, what were those results?

The winner is the person with the lowest number because in trials rules they have dabs.Least dabs wins basically.In the top bike trials comps some of them get 0

we had a little tie breaker at the end and tyler won. i should have got more than 3 hours of sleep the night before haha.

yea. jarin is a great rider. if he wasn't off his game i bet he would have smoked me.

I want video!! How did you all fare against the bike guys, or was it totally separate scoring? And do you know what the winning score was for the bike part?

lowest score was shaun miller at 6. he is an amazing rider. its hard to compete against bikes. they have alot of advantages over us and their dabs are basically getting off the bike and restarting on the line so alot more of them completed the lines.

If we were on the same dab system we would all have gotten below 30 IMO... It was an epic adventure, and getting to ride with Shaun Miller for a whole weekend was an experience in its own! There are just so many highlights that should be put in here, but would just take so long... The competition was amazing, though we only had a couple ours of sleep to operate us along by, reasoning behind this was 7 trials riders sharing one room with random drunks popping up from everywhere to hang out with us. One of the sketchiest nights of my life ended in Shaun beating up a fat biker guy that broke into our room looking for a fight!? Seriously Shaun took down a like 300lb Harley rider without getting so much as a bruise!!!

It would really be great of you could describe the trials course you did. How long it was, what materials were used and so on. Of course, PICS and video would also be nice. (I know the video may take a while to edit and stuff.)
