Mt. Bachelor, Oregon December 16, 1998
Both young women opted for 720's and stuck 'em when they counted. Tricia said "I felt really squirrely and I think I might have been screaming." Apparently the judges thought she was screaming with glee and not fear and awarded her top bong today.
Barrett Christy just missed the finals with a 35.0. Michele Taggart threw down her back-to-back 540's to no avail and Kim Stacy still goes biggest beyond a doubt, but the judges just weren't impressed enough to let them into the "Super Finals". No bongs for you.
They didn't stay long. Michaelchuck claimed to not be going that big. Well he must not be comparing himself to (or seeing) other riders. He injured his ankle a few weeks ago "screwing around on a straight jump, but with lots of tape and pain killers, I can ride." Nobody noticed the injury. Mr. Mike says he's working on "a straight backflip with a backside kinda 900." No name for this as of today, but he still won a big blue glass "water pipe" looking thing as well.
OZZY IS GOD
Shannon Dunn didn't show up to the podium and everyone was claiming that she wasn't getting her three plus grand for second place because it's in some dumb contract that you have to be there for the TV that's going to show a half hour at three in the morning in February. Whooops. Zach Horwitz claimed he had kidnapped her and was holding her ransom in his lair. He also said he was going to stay on the FIS tour and take all their money and he doesn't have Clicker style because he runs six to seven miles a day and swims in his Clickers. Believe what you want but if any of this holds true, look for follow up story titled Freak Throws Spastic Fit For Dunn's Just Desserts.
