Last weekend Christy, Toni, Jordy, Josh N, Ben J, Shilo,
Pernille and I went on a roady to the city of Reno! The Reno River Festival was
an all weekend event that included freestyle, slalom, Boatercross and Supping!
Unfortunately we missed the Saturday slalom and freestyle events but we arrived
just in time for the Sunday events- Supping and Boatercross! The festival was
held on the river that runs through the
centre of Reno. This made for a great spectator event with a lot of people
gathering around to check out the action. I took out the time SUP slalom event
and placed 2nd after Toni George in the SUP Cross event. Josh
Neilson took 3rd in the SUP Slalom and Jordy took out the SUP cross!
This was followed by the Boatercross event which included 8 ballers! Toni ended
up 2nd in this event well I was pushed out of contention by an
8baller at the end to finish in 4th. A super fun event that was well
run, definitely keen to go back next year.
With only a few days left in the United States of America
Toni, Jordy, Christy and I decided to head to Yosemeti to check out the
beautiful sites. Yosemeti boosts as one of the United States most beautiful
natural areas, and it was definitely very scenic. We did a small walk to a nice
waterfall the first night and then tackled the large climb to Half Dome the
next day- it took us around 3 and half hours to the top and then we cruised our
way down to finish in around 10 hours! Stoked! A great way to end our time here
in America.
