USASA nationals

[Mead]

I'm probably goin to nationals late this spring, if any of you are goin, what sorta shit are you gonna bust?

I've got 9s in the pipe, but i dunno how thats gonna hold up in the 16+ division. Last year i saw a lot of 7s, a couple 9s, couple flat 5s, but that was also in 15 and under. thanks

You can do a 9? How long did it take you to learn them?

 

[Mead]

theyre not that tough, just make sure u can get a consistent 6-7 ft, with bigger airs like 10. the way i learn bigger spins in pipe is i started out w/ 5's, and was doin them last year when i overrotated and realized i could roll it into 7 pretty easy, same with 9s.

So you do them like 7 feet out? You must be pretty good. Do you think your the best kid your age at your mountain?
