Re: XDL East coast eliminator.....
you had a good run just a lot of tough competitors and good runs all together. the judging was close and i dont think not knowing any of the judges would hurt your score they ran fair competition expecially compared to other comps.

I also thought Borne should've place higher... as well as Drastic Dan....

Re: XDL East coast eliminator.....
qualifying run scores had to be close because everyone was killing it....luke you def had a great run and mixed it up really good...everyones game was on point on saturday though.
you should have stayed sat night that drive home must have been rough, what it take like 13 hours?

Re: XDL East coast eliminator.....
That's what I said!
Luke you already know what I think, but I'll say it anyhow, you killed it. I think it was a matter of too many great rides. The judges didn't have an easy job this weekend.
Heidi, I kept wanting to say hi, but everytime I looked up either you'd be gone or one of my kids would be. I'll bet you got some great pics. Bmore I'm going to watch your video and I'll be in touch tomorrow.

Re: XDL East coast eliminator.....
i would say the judging was pretty fair overall.... when you got 30 bad *** riders( ok.. ok... 29 and 1 squid- me), it's gonna be hard not to make someone question it....
but i do think there is room for improvement on the scoring system though...
as in my run, i must of thought crashes got you xtra points in overall if you made it look good and entertaining

Re: XDL East coast eliminator.....
so true , sometimes they pick their fave riders like usually ... there is another reason why i didnt go to complete ...i guess it is all about favorism not their skills nowadays. that sucks really.
Luke like another people said you should make it , i think next time you will step up ahead of their game and do ur thing as long people know you now...it takes time i guess.
