Vancouver Qualifiers '10
Posted On Jul 27 2010, 05:12 PM by Trevn Sharp

The fifth stop of the DC Nationals went down this past weekend in Poco, BC. With the King Of Montreal coming up at the end of August, our line up of competitors is getting stacked with some of the best talent this country has to offer. With two more contests to go, it's only getting better.

Justin Wely - 5th
He was killing everything in the warm up and no one really knew who he was. One of those "Holy! See that guy, who is he?" kind of guys. Justin ripped hard during the entire warm up, but had a hard time landing on the board during the jams. We're glad he came through and will be with us in Montreal.

Jamie Walker - 4th
Jamie is one the smoothest, relaxed skaters I have ever seen. His style is untouchable; seriously he's so fun to watch skate. He cruised around the jams stomping tricks in each area keeping it fresh and upbeat. A manual master with the ability to skate anything.

Sam Guay - 3rd
Sam actually comes from Montreal, so he's hyped to make it to the finals and rep his home city. Sam came crashing into the course hitting the big rail with ease and throwing down on the stairs.

Dustin Locke - 2nd
It was a tough choice for the judges who would win the day. Dustin was on point the whole day with a lot tricks on everything and was defiantly in contention for the win. Dustin skates with power and a big bag of tricks, so we're hoping to see him at the finals.

Gabby Ivanov - 1st
The day belonged to Gabby: his control of his board is pretty amazing when you realize that his trick choices seems to be hard for anyone else, yet Gabby can put them down with finesse. He is a very, very good skater and I can't wait to see what he does at the King Of Montreal.

I do what I do, I mean I guess we all do. I like it when things workout, not to say I don't work for what I have, but I enjoy it when it comes easy. I'm down with nature but not as much as hippies. I have been skating since I was a baby and hopefully will skate when I'm a geezer. I am travelling across Canada this summer with the DC Nationals; I'll be stopping in every province looking for the top 5 skaters who will join me in Vancouver on August 22-23 for the finals.
