Crankworx!

I think this is Berrecloth (but could be wrong)





Rocky Flatline Worldcup 2010 edition


Crankworx was such an awesome event. I am really thankful that you were able to get me a media pass, and the yellow wristband. Thank you Ryan, it was greatly appreciated. Here is my little blurb for you down below. On February 13th, 1999, I fought for the Super Heavyweight Championship of the world on the De La Hoya/Quartey undercard. The electricity and energy at the Thomas & Mack Center, however, was no match to this year's Crankworx. It was the most amazing event, and I would do it all again tomorrow. The people, the atmosphere, and everything about Crankworx is awesome. I just wish more people knew about it. Most of my photography experience is in XC mountain bike racing, MMA, boxing, the occasional wedding and studio work. This was all new to me, and it was an excellent learning experience. Watching the photography great, Sterling Lorence, in action was satisfaction enough let alone watching Crankworx. Although I had to adjust to the speed of the racers and contestants in the slopestyle event, I was able to get some stellar photographs. Special thanks to Geoff Gulevich, Andreu Lacondeguy and Cam McCaul for their performances which enabled me to get some awesome photographs. Mountain bike events are so fun to be at. They always have such nice people, be it competitors or spectators. I am very thankful that I could be there, see you next year.
