2018 POSH Woods High Air Jam - In Photos

Fully roasted and properly served...

5 Sep 2018

Catty Woods represent- Chris Janis with the table at height.

Pittsburgh style in full effect- Tom Arkus.

When not hard at work keeping Posh up to par, local maestro Brian Coleman is hard at work ripping the jumps.

Angle number one of Ever Peacock on moon patrol.

Oldest bro of the Halahan clan, Lukas, getting it.

Same jump, different angle. Butcher all day.

YES. The one and only Garrett Byrnes, clocking air and taking home a top five High Air trophy. If there was a Low Air award, he would have taken that one too, based on a few of his runs. The best.

Ever, and the timeless (banned and then revived) Nac Nac.

Nathan Halahan; has to be he youngest dude by quite a few years to clear 10-foot plus mark on the Butcher Jump height pole.

Angle two of Tom Arkus and the classic table.

Angle two of Ever full roast; mere inches from maxing out the 16 foot height pole.

Eric Jensen, Tom Arkus, Ever Peacock, Lukas Halahan and Garrett Byrnes, King of the roasters. Where's Nutter?

Ever and one of the bad-ass trophies custom-made by the Trail Shaman.

Janis whippin' it real good. If this Ft. Wayne set hipped a little the other way, we might have been blessed with his impeccable darkside version.

There he is- Ever also taking Best Whip of the day, making Clint Reynolds proud.

Nathan and Lukas Halahan, Ever, Janis and a Czech visitor rounding out Best Whip. Where's Clint?

It's been quite the rainy summer in the Northeastern U.S. So much consistent daily rain, in fact, that Posh Woods in Bethlehem hasn't seen much action the past few months, a time where dusty lips and crumbling landings due to drought conditions would not be abnormal. In fact, the July 4th weekend jam was the only day so far this year where pretty much all runs were open for business.

Despite all the soaked clay, and even with having to shift the now annual High Air comp/ jam a day later due to yet another day of inclement weather, most runs were running surprisingly well. Everything seemed to be at that sweet spot of being a little bit slow, where if you haven't ridden the jumps in a while, you can think a little less about potentially overshooting landings, and more about getting your flow on.

The following are sixteen images from a really awesome and fun day with old and new friends. Even Sal, AKA Brad Pitt, AKA rhythm creator, made an appearance. All hail the end of summer, and celebrate the start of the best time of the year in this region. Trails season is upon us...
