Dirt Finals went down this afternoon and Nyquist ended up winning the Dew Cup overall with a 5th place finish. It had rained pretty hard the night before so the jumps were a little slow and weird. Nasty didn’t even make it through with one clean run. Many riders only got through one time. The lips were made with concrete and clay so there weren’t any gnarly ruts like usual. Luke Parslow won the comp and his parents were there to celebrate with him. Chris Doyle was sitting in third place towards the end of the comp but got bumped down into 4th place when it was all over and done with. Get this- the jumps were so bad that Chris messed up a 360 turndown on his second run. Bizarre. Anthony Napolitan got third place but pulled the frontflip tailwhip on the last set after competition. Ryan Guettler went for a double backflip on the first jump in his second run and knocked himself out and ruined his back wheel. He still ended up 7th place with a 91 and and 81. Dennis Enarson earned second place and rode like a man. It doesn’t even look like he is trying out there and he’s making the podium. If he hadn’t messed up at the first two stops, he would have won the Dew Cup. Joey Marks pulled a pretty big double downside whip 360 at the end of his last run. I’d like to speculate that the second one was even superman status. Cameron White went for the backflip barspin to tailwhip on the first jump and slipped his pedal on the landing. Seven of the twelve riders in the final were wearing Vans.
