Big thanks to the Gorge Games, Full Throttle, and Taco Del Mar for putting on this competition and hopefully we can get some other photogs doing it next year. It was lots of fun. And props to Moria who ran the comp and orginized the event.

6:30PM Nicole and Roxanna go get our Taco Del Mar burritos to eat before we kite and the rest of us head to the spit to blow up kite
7/18 7:41PM race down to the spit from the start and get this with the 1st shutter release. After taking the pic I think; ok we got the photo  props to Nicole for looking cool and given up some sleep time

| All of them look sweet, but I really love the skate one with the board flipping in the air and the skater looks like he is pointing at you. |

Congrats on the win, Henry... very nice shots! And Stringy, how did you get your riders to freeze in mid air so that you could compose your shots so perfectly? Big thanks to my team of Kirsten, Brandon, AdamV, and Wallygator (and extras Jim, Margy, and Justin) for posing and an extra big thanks to Moria for going extremely full throttle at putting this contest together. My favorite moments of shooting were the waterhousing session with Kirsten and Brandon using my props and Saturday at dawn with Brandon fully powered in front of the mountain. Well, here's my last place entry. I hope you like em... Ethan

great contest and the pictures were creative and fun.
I took a little different approach of just shooting kiters for my showcase.

my team consisted of:
stephen sibborn
jason clack
matt ewing
glen mulvey
and the money shot!

Stringy,
All those are killer shots. I think just focusing on kiting hurt you in the voting. I really dig the beer hat shot.
