Place your bets at the window.

I love Yuki....and Rachel Mac is a badazz on the ski....but it's all about Emi is Women's Pro Ski again this year. I hope the wind HOWLS! She's amazing in the rough =)

Emi was flying today. Through some nasty Long Beach chop she looked cool as a cucumber. And that was only on her back up/practice limited. The raceboat is still lurking, waiting to be let loose. My money is on her and Team Kawasaki in the women's pro class. As for the rest, I think Rius will be fast on a Hydro and sit down. Craig Warner should stomp in his class and in Pro Am Stock Ski I hope to see Kanamori put the # 600 on top of the podium, though I think it will be a tall order. Am ski is Keifer's for the taking if he rides Tony's 180 Hydro, the boy wonder was flat out haulin' buns at Nashville. I've never seen anything like it. Gotta go with the twig - Quemada in Sport Mod, he was out there today in the gnarlies with his HX getting some big air. Names to watch are Ryan Zamler, Rusty Wilson, Corey Cole, and Jake Zier to name a few. And lest I forget, anyone coming from across the pond should also be considered a favorite. Those folks ride really hard over there and have some wickedfast skis. Should be interesting.

if he is racing this year, I'll pick Jordan Fielder just won up in oregon don't think he has ever lost a moto in havasu and well he was just in the country 2 weeks ago maybe he stayed and will race.
