Hey everyone… boys and girls.

Well I had this idea to start writing a journal about where I’ve been… and all my travels for a while. Since ERGO has this new blog, I thought to myself… maybe I’ll write a blog entry every couple weeks. So I emailed Pete (Pete Disprito… he’s the man at ERGO, if you ever need to get shit done, just ask him… He’ll sort you out!). He was like…. Lets do it! So we here we are 2 weeks into it. I haven’t made an entry yet but this is the first one. Its called Wes’s Briefcase. Its basically about me. No, no. I’m just kidding. As you may or may not know I travel all year doing the WQS. (World Qualifying Series for you guys not in the know) and that’s what this blog is all about. All the shit that happens on tour… The up’s, the downs ,the winning ,the losing and pretty much anything you can think of. So, with that being said………. Enjoy!

There’s so much that goes down on tour that mags, videos or the internet doesn’t cover. And those things are…. well I honestly have no idea because there’s live web cast all year at most of the events, so if you haven’t been watching then turn on your lappy tomorrow and find out when the next event is. Now that’s taken care of. … Europe is always a make or break leg for the guys on the QS, there are so many events back to back and all of them are 5 and 6 stars. This leg of the tour really starts in Huntington Beach. If you are unfortunate enough to be for HB then this part of the leg doesn’t really apply to you. But we are gone from around July 20^th till Sep 15^th, and usually with the same crew that you have been with all year long. Every year by the end of the leg you hear some pretty good stories about guys wanting to rip each other heads off. Think about 7 weeks with the same people…. you would feel the same way…. Anyways from Cali we go to Japan and form Japan to France from France to Portugal and finally when your bank account gets to zero you will find your self spending the last 2 weeks on tour in Spain.

So there you have it, that sums up the European leg of the WQS , Most of the boys I’m with at the moment have not done that good this year except for 2, Dion atkins who finished second in Lacanau and Shaun Gossman who made quarters in Japan and = ninth in Hossoger.( big ups to Goz, U better fucking Qualify this year cozzy.) We are still not done yet with the Europe leg but with only one contest left I’d figure I’d go ahead and right the entry. (The truth is I’m really bored and have nothing else to do.)

Nathaniel Curren has already clamied a spot on the WCT for next year along with Chris Davidson, Josh Kerr and Pat Gudang. Pat has been ripping all year and will go sick on the CT… that’s 2 more for team America. Brett Simpo, Nate Yomans , and Autin Ware are pretty close as well and only need one or 2 more results. But I must say that the aussies have come on strong this leg and a lot of them are pretty close and on the border line. Yadin Nicol, might already be in but is still on the bubble, Drew Courtney, (who has been plugging away for the last 9 years finally looks like he’s in, but we have to wait and see) Phil Macdonald, Shaun Gossman, Adam Melling, Nick Mushy, Leigh Sedz, and last but not least Adam Robertson. Good luck to all the boys and hope to see you on the tour next year. Well there you have it…. That’s all I’ve got for now. Talk to ya’ll soon.

Oh and the photos that may or may not have loaded a lot of them are form Spain In these old World War II bunkers that we fond, they were pretty creepy underground pitch black dark tunnels. It was really scary but it pretty sick. A couple are from Portugal and the ones where everyone looks twisted is from a night out after the event in Portugal.
