Nick Stomps Stop #2...Again
19 May 2009
A year ago, at the #2 stop of the Toe Jam Wakeskate Tour, Nick Taylor silenced the crowd and the wakeskating ranks with a flawless run, claiming the event's top podium spot.
This year Nick was back on the glassy water of The Projects, just outside of Orlando, FL to defend his title. With expectations high, pressure to win and 37 of the world's best wakeskate pros gunning for his title, the task was anything but easy.
Meeting up with Reed Hansen in the finals, Nick delivered a repeat performance from a year ago, throwing down yet another flawless run and coming away with the win. Hansen put up a valiant effort, but with Nick stomping moves like boardslide big spins off the Nike 6.0 incline and switch back lips on the flat rail, Hansen didn't stand a chance. Is Nick at the top of his game? Hecks yeah!
Also joining Nick in the Top 3 was former Toe Jam Champion and 6.0 teammate, Ben Horan. Ben, who already claimed a 1st place finish at the #1 stop of this year's Toe Jam Tour, sunk his claws into a meaty 3rd place finish at The Projects.
