Stoked to get an article about last week's US Nationals (put on my the La Costa Racing non-profit) in the local Santa Cruz Sentinel. This comes out today in print. Here is a link to the article. Thanks Jim Seimas for writing this. My hope is to get more skaters trying slalom racing since it's a great discipline to cross train for skateboarding. Next race will be the World Championships in Salem Oregon.

Women's Results
for all results go Slalom Skateboarder
Women's Hybrid Slalom Skateboard Finals
I pulled out early and got a DQ (1.5 second penalty) on the first run. Learned a big lesson since I had faster times and ended up third.

Women's Tight Slalom Skateboard Finals
Single lane we each got 2 runs. My first run was clean but slower. I played it safe to get a time. My second run was better and I placed second.

Women's Dual Giant Slalom Skateboard Finals
I ran clean most of my runs until racing Lynn to the first and second place. She is super fast and as hard as I try to chase her down I still got second which I am happy about.
At the World Skate Games I had the second fastest Giant Slalom time but in the finals my time was 2 seconds slower thus I ended up getting 5th.

Current Women's World Ranking
is a point system. I'm currently the second fastest in the USA and World by numbers. There are faster women racers coming to Worlds and that will show better who's the fastest. My goal is to be the second fastest USA rider. I'm good with that.
