cable nationals

Things have been really hectic the past few weeks with all the planning for my overseas trip.  In between all the planning and training for SA Nationals, I was lucky enough to do a film shoot which hopefully will be released soon. 

This past weekend - 12th and 13th April, was SA Cable Nationals which was held at StokeCity Wakepark in Johannesburg.  Unfortunately during practice on Friday, I pulled a muscle between my ribs on my back.  I was unable to ride qualifiers on Saturday as it was really sore.  I was prepared to  just do a lap so that I could qualify for finals on Sunday should I be OK to ride, but after discussions with the association, it was felt that it wasn't necessary as I was there and ready.  We managed to find a chiropractor who was willing to  see me on Saturday afternoon.  She massaged the muscle and did ultrasound.

When I woke up on Sunday, it felt a little better but was still quite painful.  I decided that I was going to try and ride and just see how it goes. 

I was super stoked on getting 1st place and the SA champ title for 2014 !!.  Jordan won the Pro Men division, so the two of us flew off to Spain on Sunday night after a very successful weekend.

A big thank you to my sponsors for all their support.
