CONCRETE RODEO & HALFPINT SHOWDOWN I

We hooked up with the Concrete Rodeo crew for the July 21st Tanzanite Sacramento Skate Contest and here is how it went down. Josh Douglas and Drake Riddiough rode in the 8 & under heat and both had great runs combining the tight street course with the never ending bowls. Drake Riddiough ended the day with a First Place with Josh Douglas taking Second in their heats. Jagger Eaton and his brother Jett were right on their heels throughout the days event.

Anthony Anaya took the place by storm by easily destroying the competition in the 9-10 age groups. Be on the watch for this high flying spiked helmet little grom cause I could swear he had wings coming out of his back! Cody Chapman ended up in Fourth Place out of seven riders in the 11-12 heat. TJ Lewis came out and showed everyone how he likes to go big and took no prisoners with his first place win in the 11-12 year old group.

The 13 – 14 year olds were also throwing down and Nate Linford ended up taking third place out of 7 riders. Chris Henderson rode in the 15 – 16 division and was knocked out of his first place ranking by 7/10ths of a point by our good pal Jerry Gurney. The girls showed up to skate and Lexi Barclay skated all of her heats with her arm in a cast and sling showing all of the guys just how tough the girls really are. (She fractured it the day before the comp) In the end it was Rose McCoy taking first place in her division and then went on to win the head to head joust part of the comp.

The final results of the joust looked like this:

1st Place – TJ Lewis 11- 12

2nd Place – Jerry Gurney 15 - 16

3rd Place – Anthony Anaya 9 – 10

4th Place – Nate Linford 13 – 14

5th place – Chris Henderson 15 - 16
