Balzer's Blog: Byerly Toe Jam Rail Contest

Hey Dudes, hope every one is starting to get their shred on as the weather starts to warm up. It’s been hot and busy down here in Clermont and we have been riding a lot. I have been shooting with photographer Bryan Soderlind a fair bit lately and we’ve been getting some amazing stuff.

Last weekend was the Toe Jam it was out at The Projects, which is always a lot of fun. I saw Oli [Derome] and Yan Tibo out there; those guys are awesome. The riding this year was better then ever on the rails and all the Canadians that rode made it thru qualifying to the top 16. Yan Lacomte, Nic Harlos and I that were from north of the 49th to represent and we all had a really good weekend. Once you make it to the head to head, it just gets gnarly; Nic got Reed [Hansen] in the first round, Yan matched up with Andrew Pastura, and I got none other than Brian Grubb. I guess all the training that I’ve been doing paid off because somehow I took my heat. The other guys weren’t so lucky but they shredded hard all day. The top eight was as far as I made it. I ran into Ben Horan and he was coming off a big win from the last Toe Jam; it was a close one but he took me out. Nick Taylor ended up on top and it was a really awesome contest once again.

I'm flying to Kansas tomorrow to go do some cable stuff up there then I’m on the road hitting up a bunch of places and filming for the Obscura team video. We’ll be driving all the way back to Florida just to head to the airport and fly off to Powell for the world famous BROstock.

Keep shredding and get out there even if it’s cold. You know I would.
