Wow talk about one sick event, taking an idea and making one of the sickest rail jams to take place in Tampa so far!!

Bliss Sports just wanted to come on and say a huge thanks to Jimmie Walker, and the whole Blast crew, DVS, all the team riders, Club CZAR, as well as Eric from Watercraven, Joey from Liquid Force, Aaron from RedBull, ALL of the winch people who came! and all the others on board!!! We also wanted to thank all the riders who came and stepped it up, all the way to the end of the night!!

The Black Top Brodeo was an incredible event, possibly one of the best winch events to date, we have some pics up on the site and will have a few other video clips coming up in the next few days, if anyone out there(Jimmie,OFFKILTER,etc..) has pics or some clips and they wanna get them up we will glady put them on our site for all to see! get in touch with us..

as for the wrecks not too sure of some of the outcomes, but if you remember when Rob went off the side of the top pool, he had surgery yesterday, two fractures to the arm and two dislocated spots in the wrist not to mention the extreme headache, thnks for helmets!! Rob you got our support hope you get better soon!!!

ONCE AGAIN THANKS TO ALL FOR MAKING IT SUCH A GREAT EVENT!

mellow24, One of the funnest comps I've ever been too, can't wait for the next one.

I've got a whole roll of b/w photos I took at the contest (some from the roof of the club with a macro lens Cool

) and I'll post those as soon as I develop them in photography class tomorrow Laughing

And my elbow still hurts.

why did you use a macro lens to shoot off a roof?

scott a I use my macro lens sometimes for regular photos just cause it gives a really crisp shot.

Rob Handlin won best wipe-out
Just talked to him; he fell face first off the 10 foot pool gap. He fractured his wrist in 4 places, dislocated his arm in 2 places, and broke his hand in 2 spots. He is in good spirits. WWA is taking care of the hospital bill and he will be back riding in about 3 months. He is one tuff MF and a all around good guy. Rob wants to see his crash so if anyone has any video of it please contact Bliss Sports.

This was the 2nd Blast Wakeskate contest Produced by Bliss Sports & Blast Productions. It was one of the Most entertaining Contest I have been to. There is more content added each day to the site so keep checking back.
We are working on a video from the contest and should be up by wed. night.

until then just finished a 5:20min video from the 1st Blast Contest at Tower Lake 3-20-05
