TT C6 Posted February 23, 2008 Report Posted February 23, 2008 I wanted to find out who was going to the Buckman's Rail Jam tomorrow and at what time. I was going to ride Boulder Saturday and stay through Sunday, but now I'm thinking about grabbing 1st chair Saturday and driving back to Buckman's for the Rail Jam. I called the shop and got a few times from them: 3pm = Qualifying heats begin 7pm = Finals 8:45 = Award Ceremony Quote

Justin Posted February 23, 2008 Report Posted February 23, 2008 Oh, my, god. That setup looks so sick. I'm super pissed I didn't enter haha. I'll still be up anyway, seeing as KOP isn't far. Quote

TT C6 Posted February 24, 2008 Author Report Posted February 24, 2008 (edited) my booyyyyyyy KevinThomas won the rail jam and $1500 bones! so stoked for him. one of PASR's own! siiiick! everybody give him props for his skills! Was he #11? If so, he killed it. #11 had my vote before the judges announced it. I left Big Boulder and made it to Buckman's by 6pm. I'm glad I was able to catch the finals. Kildares afterwards was a good time too. Hoegaarden.....mmmmmmm. Edited February 24, 2008 by TT C6 Quote
sexkitten Posted February 24, 2008 Report Posted February 24, 2008 I stopped by when I was finished shopping and I was surprised how small it was. I don't know why I was expecting bigger but I was. Nevertheless it looked kinda fun. Quote
Tyler Posted February 24, 2008 Report Posted February 24, 2008 way to go kt, thats so sick. anyone have any videos of the even yet? Quote
Saurus Posted February 24, 2008 Report Posted February 24, 2008 Congrats KT..wow $1500 bucks for doing what you like to do...awesome just like professionals...omgz Quote
mollyskeez Posted February 25, 2008 Report Posted February 25, 2008 thats awsome great for him! i saw him throw down and i think i was talking to him when i was chillin in the rome tent. Quote
mollyskeez Posted February 25, 2008 Report Posted February 25, 2008 Oh, my, god. That setup looks so sick. I'm super pissed I didn't enter haha. I'll still be up anyway, seeing as KOP isn't far. oh and set up wasnt that sick. i think it could have been better if the box didnt have SQUARE coping and they should have just had like a flat box and the single barrel flat down. either that or have the aframe with more of a gap on and off of it. over all it was SUPER fun. i didnt even throw down. at all. but i still had a ball. its prob. one of the most fun things i have ever done like that. only bumber was haveing to argue with the guy just to get ONE practice run. he was like you you you and you and then practice is over but we actually waited in line and not just cut it like everyone else and barly got one practice run. Quote
toast21602 Posted February 25, 2008 Report Posted February 25, 2008 kinda sucks that you didnt have a practice run. i wish i would have done it. especially since KT won. i missed out. shit. Quote
Big--Ben Posted February 26, 2008 Report Posted February 26, 2008 yea such a sick comp. The whole day was so much fun KT and Stunt were killin it Stout unfortunately got screwed over in the finals tho Quote
snorovr Posted February 26, 2008 Report Posted February 26, 2008 Stout unfortunately got screwed over in the finals tho times ten. Still stunned in a big way... Definitely a fun evening, but some obvious mistakes in judging and no policing of the lines contributed to some jaded feelings on the parts of myself and others. In any case, thanks a ton for putting this on Johnny. Again there was a ton of swag and everyone that I knew who came was having a blast until the very end. Thats part of entering a comp though.

skeer_tomas Posted February 26, 2008 Report Posted February 26, 2008 (edited) Congrats again KT! Finals didn't go too well for me. The nasty pizza from the mall started to f with my stomach oh well. For next year some kind of line organization would be cool. Really fun event though everyone was throwin down and had real laid back feel between heats. Any chance we could see a score sheet/final results list posted somewhere??? Oh and i would have expected to see a PASR booth or something double u tee eff??

n0xidee Posted February 26, 2008 Report Posted February 26, 2008 Anyone have any pics and/or video of it? I wanted to go but other things came up and couldn't make it. Quote
Dan- Posted February 26, 2008 Report Posted February 26, 2008 yea such a sick comp. The whole day was so much fun KT and Stunt were killin it Stout unfortunately got screwed over in the finals tho Under statement of the year. Quote
KevinThomas Posted February 26, 2008 Report Posted February 26, 2008 Under statement of the year. couldnt agree more. kid deserved SOMETHING! big ups to john for gettin this thing goin though. lots of fun and a good vibe throughout the event for the most part. Quote
Big--Ben Posted February 27, 2008 Report Posted February 27, 2008 yea the judges definately must have mixed up matts bib with the other kid, which would make sense cuz I dont think he did as well as Kevin, but I got third and he definately did better than me. No offense to that kid who got 2nd but he didnt do nearly as good as matt Quote
