My last paddling escapades!

Alabama Mountain Games (AMG) was awesome!  A four day festival starting on Thursday and what better way to start a festival with Huckfest.  Huckfest is a hour and a half free-for-all freestyle going off a 20 foot water fall trying to do as cool of a trick as possible.  I placed 3rd in the Men's expert division and I hope to come back and do this event again.  Next up was boater-cross where every one starts above the water fall and races to the bottom using a mass start.  I placed 2nd in Juniors and had blast going over the waterfall.

The Throw-Down and Big-Trick events were held on Friday.  The Jacksons had arrived late that night as they weren't going to miss AMG for anything.  And as usual they dominated every aspect of the sport so you can imagine who placed?  Dane placed first in Junior Throw-Down while I just missed out on the podium by coming in fourth.  I had the same score as the 3rd place finisher, but I lost the tie-breaker.  The last kayaking event of the festival was the Big-Trick competition and I was competing in the Men's Expert class.  I really surprised myself by taking first place which definitely made up for just missing out the podium in the Throw-Down competition.  I felt AMG was a huge success personally and I am planning on coming back next year.
