I've always tried to shoot this image correctly. Larry Edgar is a wild man when it comes to this trick, huge tuck no hander to invert well after he is dropping back to the transition.
Eric Litchtenberger and Ryan Mills have something in common, but I can't quite put my finger on it?!
Dennis Enarson is always a pleasure to watch shred any course! This time between all my filming, this was the only photo I managed to get of the high flying winner!
The dudes. Anthony Perrin, Boyd Hilder, Alex Donnachie, Jordan Godwin, Devon Smillie and Veesh!
