I voted in Round 1, missed Round 2, and just cast my vote for Round 3. Who did you vote for?

Round 1 - Wayne Goss, who advanced! Yeah, my vote actually made a difference.

Round 2 - Didn't vote, oops!

Round 3 - Jeff Bryson. I thought his style was a bit more refined than the other guys. Plus, a little more diversity with styles of riding.

Wayne goss for sure.
Chris from Cali. No one compared, ironically the two weakest were from the shore imo.

What do you base your voting on. For me it is versatility. I hate seeing the same stuff constantly. If the only thing you can do is dj you shouldn't enter (although the kid in question is AWESOME at moto whips haha)

This week...

Jamie - good control of the bike in all situations. Doesn't go huge but does some awesome tricks. Probably has the best overall trick set I have seen so far.

Jeff - That kid riding the big boy trails in van and hitting good style. I always love guys who can ride skinnies. His djing was ok and he showed some good trail riding (and he did diggers drop...wow)

Jeff Morin - Street and trials rider...I know I won't vote for him because of one simply sentence..."Turn offs - big bikes ridden with small skill" I don't want a knob like that representing a sport I love. Its none of his business what people ride. I shouldn't have read that line before I watched the vid because 90% of the time I love street and skinny riders over big drop/jump guys...

Ian - I love what his sponsor says about him, and maybe in a few years...but big drops and jumps only don't do much for me.

I am going to have to think about it. Jamie and Jeff1 both offer things I like and both impress me greatly. It is so close I might just have to go with country loyalty for a change and go for the shore guy.

Man I love this event.
