Rd. 8 – Charleston, WV The final round of the UWP-IJSBA tour took place this past weekend in Charleston, WV, where for the third straight year they welcomed us in and bent over backwards to make everything perfect. Magic island had a lot going on with the EVP volleyball finals taking place, a live band, rock climbing wall, several food vendors, the jet ski races, and of course the Jettribe trailer selling all the best gear available.
The Weekend had its ups and downs. Saturday was a tough day, getting a 4th place finish in GP Ski, then breaking down a few laps into the first moto of stock class while running in 2nd, ending up 8th. Unfortunately my stock ski was unrepairable for Sunday’s motos, however I was able to borrow a boat for Sunday. On Sunday things went better, I was able to salvage stock class and do just good enough to hold my second place overall for the national tour which was tough with it being a double points round. In Gp ski, I had great starts in both moto 2 and 3, but was not able to get out in front of Chris Macclugage on either of them. I finished second in both motos, giving me second overall for the round and second overall for the national tour.
It was a little sad leaving West Virginia from the final round of the tour, but those feelings quickly disappeared with the thought of the World Finals coming up so quickly. Havasu or bust.
