Our school show presentation has taken on a life of its own lately and the response has been unfathomable. School shows are few and far between on the Division schedule but when 100% effort is given toward anything, the outcome is usually positive. After giving the demonstration of how to bunny hop, Mykel Larrin and J.j. Flairty put the trick over some brave volunteers. the fella sitting by the Highland Hornets banner invented the superman. Shouts to Bob Kohl.

Koji Kraft is a unique character. So many hobbies, so much creativity, and an arsenal of tricks on a quarterpipe that would beat anyone in a game of “bike.” Here is an oldie but a goodie, it’s called a switch hand and as you can see, you take one hand and put it on the wrong spot. Props to our photographer Jimmy Walker for manning the camera once again.

Mykel Larrin with an unmistakable superwhip. Can you see the back wall next to the green sign? Those are tire marks from wall rides. The set up couldn’t have been any better and now a reminder to students to take action in their lives and not let outside influences affect them. Highland might be the best school crowd we’ve ever had! Such awesome students!

We joked about having a height pole for the shows, and now that this photo has surfaced, I think we should have used one. Judging by my non expert eye that has to be almost 12 feet above the quarterpipe. The ramp is super mellow so to get a pump like that you need to go as fast as possible, and have the upper body of a baboon. J.j. Flairty has both. Good thing he uses such a serious helmet, he is so close to that ceiling. Yeah J’s!

And what is a show without the stylish riding of Tim Knoll.  He is currently battling injuries but you sure can’t tell by the quality of his riding. Here is a gut lever with his legs to the moon. So much commitment and still Tim makes it look effortless. Can you find yourself in this picture? So many shirts are about to be given away, keep a close look on our facebook for info! Thanks everyone from Highland, such awesome people!
