I did one of the ASC shows last year with PaulV.. there is not alot of Canadians that do those shows, so PaulV got in because he is the only pro... Luke Skarruup got in because he begged Dione, Paul Rykart from out west got in because he does a crap load of NAS shows, and I got in because I did the American Nationals last year in Maine... Dione reffed the 105 Nationals Last year that PaulV won in BC, that is where Luke knows her from

I will represent everyone the best I can !!!!!

and now PaulV is done his Vacation, our training will start to ramp up...
Plus I'm training for the CPO nationals in May, in Montreal... so I will be sore in the upcoming months haha

I did some reps with the lighter stones, 265 and 300
tried a run but couldnt do a lot of reps without getting tacky over and over again....

cleaned up and did some axel pressing..
worked up to 300 for 2 and missed the third at the lock out.... I smashed my strenum on the clean... and the clean was possibly the UGLIEST thing ever, but im ok with the pressing.... I will want a big number next week and will post some videos too
