Season Recap

Imagine this:  You're resting nicely, minding your own business, enjoying the quiet darkness.  WHACK WHACK WHACK!!!  "What the $&%^ is that?"  Then it hits you:  The panic that you must have overslept.  No clue where you are, what you're doing there, when you're supposed to be up, who is doing the WHACKING nor why they are doing it.....but, you must have screwed sumthin up reeeeal good.

Then you scratch your head and immediately recognize the touch of coarse tangles of ski rope against your fingers.....you're Marcus Brown.

That was my morning.  I was in Vonore, TN, for a MasterCraft Photo/Video shoot, No I wasn't supposed to be awake yet (it was only 5:26 am) but apparently Freddy Krueger - everyone's Nightmare on the Jump ramp - couldn't resist the temptation of robbing someone of their last 4 minutes in NeverNever Land.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about out there?

Over the past 90 days these shoes have seen plenty enough for the adventurer in us all:  See Rough Outline below....
- Chico, CA --> Training on the home site (May 15th)
- Orlando, FL --> Masters Last Chance Qualifier
- Miami, FL --> Miami Record Tournament

Which is where I sit at this moment.  What a summer its been so far!  1 more day here at the Nationals, then its back to Cali for another round of training before heading off to the Princes ProAm in London, England in less than 2 weeks!

Can anyone tell me where the pause button is?......
