Fibark is off and running here in Salida. Thursday’s Pine Creek boatercross started off the week with a bang.\u00c2\u00a0 Boatercrosses are always fan favorites but the Pine Creek race mixes it up with a giant stickey hole thrown in the middle to keep things interesting.\u00c2\u00a0 Definitely the most exciting boatercross I have been a part off.<\/p>\n
Team Pyranha had a strong showing again this year in the race.\u00c2\u00a0 The Karnali and the Burns were definitely the most popular boats out there.\u00c2\u00a0 Everyone started out with a time trial run to cut the field to 16 and seed you for the very important starting positions.\u00c2\u00a0 In the time trials Calhoun was Second Dave Fusilli was Third I was fourth and I think Jared Seiler was 6th.\u00c2\u00a0 Jeremy And Nicole had the crowd favorite time trial runs with some impressive hole surfs!<\/p>\n
After the first two rounds and a little controversy the finals were set with 5 of us.\u00c2\u00a0 It was a close brutal battle from the beginning to the end.\u00c2\u00a0 Headed into the last move into the finish line I was in the lead with Calhoun and Brian Kirk just a few boat lenghts behind.\u00c2\u00a0 I caught a weird surge above the boof into the eddy at the finish line and was forced down low in the eddy allowing Kirk to sneak in for the win.<\/p>\n
