it was pretty fun, setup could have been better though

Sullivan got first, dan zook got second, and Kale cimperman(me) got third, wallisch's parents thought i should have won though.. hahah
 
congrats Kale! would have loved to have checked this out, but went to Valley for free skiing. man missing out on this shit for a couple of years sucks haha
 
heyy way to go man! and i think wallisch's parents have more authoritah than the judges. but you already knew that, so basically you won.
shit, why the hell am i boosting your ego?...
