i gave pics to Vaughn, who i think sent them in, gabe did kill it, the bowl event seemed a little unorganized, but it was their first time doing it and i agree that there should be a more diverse set of judges, like some old dudes, little dudes, mix it up. We should shedule one before or after trifecta.. Aumsville hasnt seen contest action in a while…i think

Gabe, you did kill it and Colin has the photos to prove it. I will pass alone your critique regarding the Judging to Team Woodchuck (any future events will have a more diverse set of judges). Soon IDK, Soon…

Gabe
that contest was rigged the guy that got third was doing early grabs lame!!!… i pulled a clean 270 over the hip what justice is no place, team woodchuck judges suck d*ck but good turn out the bcsa really did a good job organizing this event its just too bad the judges cant see who really made sh*t happen… oh well it was a blast thanks to everyone who killed it(or didn’t)F*CK THE REST !*$#

Looks like the City of Harrisburg has been planning this event for a while. No helmet? Progressive!
