So stoked I could road trip down with some of the NACCOS crew this year.

Great to catch up with the OG crews & meet some new faces.

Rad to see so many young dudes racing in the drain too. Just need to get them all on slalom boards now.

Hope the elbow heels up quick Jamie. That was a gnarly stack off the start gate.
