The Backflip speedo has failed us. :(

Good to see he's finally competing in Pro.

FINALLY????? Lee was competing in Pro 24 hours after he won the World Title in Amature. I seem to recall that he finished 4th as a Pro 24 hours after winning the Amature Class. And, if the subject of him competing with the Pros in Europe comes up it is because there is no Amature class in Europe. Also at the time he was under the age of 16 so even if there was...he was considered a Junior. (Stop me unclehulka)

Sorry, I am just a little touchy when it comes to Lee. I guess when you have followed a kid like this since he was 9 years old you have a tendency to be a little protective.

i think with that kind of funding for any youth, anythings possible. we're young, our bodies and minds are very ... "i can't get hurt" mentality. our bodies for one are a lot more forgiving than you old guys :biggrin: (just kidddding)

sure hes 16, but i bet hes well fit and trained. probably as big as i am at 19 yrs. old :banghead:

im not trying to push buttons, but i think equipment wins 90% of his titles. im sure he puts many hours into his riding though.

prove me wrong. send me a light weight hull and 900+ cc's :Banane01:

...but what do i know.

Lee has never looked that big to me - in fact I'm always amazed at how small he looks on a ski! Whatever people say about equipment, the kid's got unbelievable talent. If you're right about his equipment then I could jump on it and have a 90% chance of beating Lenzi, and I'm pretty sure that ain't going to happen....

It makes me angry when people see a talented person and say "well I could do that if I had his equipment/support/parents/flag"!! Either quit crying and do it, or admit that only a talented few reach that high a standard.

im obviously over the line then.

SJBrit, i respect your posts and have always enjoyed your avatar and would rather not spawn a slight negative bias opinion about you, or anybody else on this board. So i will drop this where its at.

Lee Stone promotes a great image of the sport for the younger audiance while still entertaining the gurus. Any promotion is good promotion for the sport.

Ride hard fellas. :woot:
