Well, the tight was gnarly, but some of us just didn't skate it very well. "Gimme cone," my ass. :-) My streak continues...

Herewith, a few more photos:

The tight was gnarly and three guys got injured, thus the small field.

2007 COSS Open!

Post by Cat Young » Wed Oct 31, 2007 1:48 am

Fun was had by all at the 2007 COSS Open!

The hill was off the charts---- super fast, especially for the TS!

Thank you to all the Colorado peeps for putting on such a great event in a short amount of time.

Thanks to Zak for working hard on the prep for the contest & to his mom for a warm bed to sleep in for the weekend--- also to Zak's dad for cone-heading on Sunday, Jason & Terri--- I can't even begin to thank Terri for all the work she did-- shuttling skaters to the top, putting together the trophy ceremony, hosting the after party, etc....., Pappas 1 & Pappas 2 , the old men (Pirnack & Fluit--- I haven't heard that much grumbling about aches & pains since I visited my grandfather in the nursing home!) ;), the McLarens, the Reaves, Mac (thanks for the ride from the airport & all the laughs), CBark for showing up & showing us how the wiggle is really done & for taking me to the airport on Monday!<br><br>Thank you Pat for sitting at the timing table for 2 days! You yelled at me a couple times, but I got over it!
Thanks to Claude for 3 AWESOME courses!

Here are a few pics.
I'll post more later.

It felt like 40 below zero on Friday evening!

Heal fast young Joe, heal fast!
