I’ve been in Kaohsiung, Taiwan for the past week for the World Games. It has been a seriously impressive production. The city has put 8 years and $200,000,000+ into a 7 day sporting event. They were kind enough to have wakeboarding along for the ride. We just finished up the closing ceremony tonight with 100,000 plus people in and around the stadium for the closing.
There was an army of volunteeres to help us with any and everything we needed. The games themselves actually had 4000+ volunteeres.
The riding was from an impressive and international field. 16 countries were represented and in the end I was fortunate enough to come away with the gold.
I snapped a ton of photos on my actual SLR camera but for now I will leave you with an Iphone photo of the closing ceremony.
I’m heading to Tokyo, Japan tomorrow morning so I’ll keep some pics and updates coming. Andrew
P.S. I feel like I need to mention how amazing not only Trevors new haircut is but also his expression that really puts emphasis on the fact that is this best haircut of all time, and he knows it.
