Sea Otter Final Day- Sunday

Sorry for lagging so much on the DH Final photos, I am waiting for the other half of photos that I saved on a friends laptop for a full report. I thought I would give you a final day report.

After a day of pretty much hell with the cold, wind, and rain, the DH finals were on. The dirt dryed up and proved for perfect conditions, no dust, and tacky dirt.

Haderer in the air with the airplane:


There was a huge crowd at the log drop:


Blue skies, green grass, and great racing:


Pro Womens winner Racheal Atherton:


Rennie had his eyes on the finish line where he pulled the fastest time of the day:


Full report hopefully coming soon!

Sea Otter Saturday

Day 3 at the Sea Otter.

The day started out in fine fashion. A bit overcast but perfect temperature and no wind. While the beginners and sports were out doing their thing on the downhill course, we decided to go check out the Pro/Semi pro dual slalom practice. The slalom track was the same as previous years, no problem there. Many people consider the Sea Otter Classic D.S to be one of the best venues of the year. All was well...that is, until the rain started.

CG rails one of the berms at the top of the track. Cedric is riding some fresh neon green bikes that are impossible to miss.


Needles and Hill rail the same berm as C-dawg.


Peaty is one of the guys who seemed un-phased by the impending hurricane. Just like home-Steve Peat.


Paramedic/Semi-pro gravity racer Evilio Suarez rails the DS course next to the SRAMollywood sign. (notice the dust, not for long)


The rain started and we headed for the Media room, the DS was postponed, as were most of the other events planned for that time of the day. Some events such as the Women's pro road race were completely cancelled. BMX was postponed till tomorrow(Sunday).


The media room was hooked up for this, a rainy Saturday at the Sea Otter Classic.

Sea Otter Day 2" Friday

Sunny skies, green grass and lots more downhill practice. Course is still in great condition, although it was a bit dusty today.

Dual slalom course looks about the same as last year but I havent gotten up close to it yet.
The dirt jumps are huge and will make for some great photos when I get a chance to go down there.

Now for the photos

Top section is pretty much the same but with some rebuilt lips:
