Pre-World Championships: Forbes Australia

Post by lbunner »

Check out the results from the pre-world championships: http://www.forbesflatlands.com/results.html. Our own Mitch Shipley finished in the top 5 again and has moved up to 15th overall. He is the only US competitor and is representing us quite well. Go Mitch!!!!!!

Yeah, it is awesome to see Mitch representing. What happened to Davis? He flew the first task.

Shoulder injury (happened at Santa Cruz). I believe he said he's out for 6 month following surgery.

I was hoping you would go Bunner.

Way to go Mitch!!!!!!!!!!

Mitch finished strong, 18th overall I think. I didn't go as I am 6 weeks into rotator cuff surgery recovery.
