The full week was a blast for me to be able to be in a Safari with the TRUE COLLECTION crew! I want to take this opportunity to thanks everyone at TRUE COLLECTION for those fantastic 2 weeks.

To take out the stress before the race the TRUE athletes decide to go Skydiving before the walking inspection, it was a really moment for all of us and a good way to take out the pressure before the first WC!
If i could do the same for every race I would do it without thinking twice : )

Practice started and I was feeling super confident on the track! Kevin and myself decide to work on making the bike faster run by run and it sure did because i got 4th in the semi final!
We were happy about how work everything perfect! My V10 was so fast on the pedaling section due of the setting we used.

For the final run I decide to attack hard at the top part of the course because I was slow in the 1/2 final! Sure I did!!!!!!!! But I went over what i could do and made a big mistake on the rock section that cost me a lot in the end! I try to catch some time in the flat part pedaling but not enough! I got 16th who is for me a bit disappointing but I am on my way to be on the top again!

Thanks to everyone this weekend, to the SYNDICATE team, Kat, Gregy, Steve, Ratboy and all the staff as well for the wonderful week !

Special thanks as well to the ROSKOPP family, without you guys those moments would never be the same!

This week end was the NISSAN European cup in Maçanet Catalonia!

The track was absolutely perfect, it was dry technical and had different type of riding into it!

After a big crash in 1/2 final I was a little worried about going down again and hurt myself before I take off to RSA the next day, then I desired to pin it !! But less than the 1/2 final run ; )
I got a clean run but a bit frustrated of not letting myself go crazy in some parts ; ) But this time I think I made the good choice ; )
I got 3 rd behind Bernat and Ferrero.

In the end of the day it was a good weekend because I race my new DH PANARACER tires and I felt really good on them! It was important to make the final of the testing on a race condition!

Thanks to Kev for the perfect work on my V10 carbon from Santa Cruz and Phil for the cool pics ; )

Cheers to everyone and see you in RSA!
