The one close up photo that came out for me, S&M rider Jesse Gregory (@lilibmxwolf on Instagram) with a one footer Hannah (or maybe a griz air on dirt) type thing over Titties. That's the name of the jump, OK, I'm not trying to be a creepy old dude, this jump has been called Titties for 25 years or so. It's a BIG jump, the main style jump at Sheep these days. Jesse was shredding all day long, like always.
This was the man of the day, and winner of the best trick, even with Dylan Stark and Hucker in the mixer. Tucker Smith fucking rips on dirt. There's no other way to say it. He was tearing up all day long, and pulling huge cliffhangers, and a bunch of other variations. I saw him nail big 3's, a 360 whip, and several other variations. I missed the peak of his cliffhangers every try, every time he would peak with his hands way up away from the bars, and only his toes on the bars. Freakin' insane. The cool part about this photo was the random luck of the guy with the Tucker Tire T-shirt in the foreground. I put this on Facebook, and Tucker says he actually buys tires from that shop. Too funny.
I grew up in Ohio, and sledding every winter made for some fun times as a kid. There's nothing quite like bombing down a snowy hill on a big toboggan with your friends. But this is Southern California, the snow here is way up in the mountains, and the only toboggan you're going to see here is one like this at sheep Hills. Classic style.
