In the Novice Class,Carlo Rodriguez showed flashes with unbelievable tricks that made him an all around guy whatever things you throw at him.Flint Concha who was still suffering from a jet lag,rounded up the second spot while Troy Celemin took the third podium spot after falling behind in the trick points. In the Elite Class,Lyndon Bernardez failed to perform his tricks due to choppy waters which he dialed well during practice 2 weeks ago,Bobby Mayor suffered the same dilemma with choppy waters and garnered runner up spots 3rd and 2nd places respectively.The pressure was on with defending champion Alvin Ang who was never affected by choppy waters and was able to throw down his bag of tricks and kept the crown. In the Women Class, anew champion was crowned ,Rose Ang dominated her class while the rider from Germany,Josy Kotsch figured it out a little too late yet she grabbed second place and Erika Sienes took third. The DYC President Paul Daarol ,during the awarding ceremony thanked everone who attended the event and hope to see more people again next year. Congratulations to all the winners.

South Beach Florida
Beach Miami,
Days Inn South Beach is not too shabby @ $54 a night per room, the
ocean is stone throw away and plenty of beautiful faces to see and
not to mention the scantily clad people around. We are telling you
MIAMI is true to its word, it is PARADISE. The place where we were
staying may not be the best but its right at the heart of Ocean
Drive and as you strolled you see plenty of expensive restaurants
and boutiques but hey! there was one Burger King that was very
affordable.

BEACH,
After breakfast we planned our water fun
activities and headed to the launching area ,of course ! our jet
skis and the speed boat in tow. The launch area was a good ten miles
from South Beach , so riding the stand up jet ski was a bit tricky
and physically challenging. As we traversed through the no wake
channel we passed by million dollar homes with yachts on their own
backyards. Goodness its good to be rich!

BOATING, As
soon as the personal water crafts and the boat were filled @ a
refueling station we headed to the beach and WATER FUN started.
The water was turquoise blue and SALTY!!!!! yeah IT was salty.!
Of course its sea water but that was not the point there. Most
of us had not swum in salt water for almost a decade , we were
so used to the lakes here in Chicago.
We finished the activities for the day when everyone had
tried James' fast yet comfortable runabout (waverunner) that
sits three or Alvin's challenging stand up super jet (Jetski)
and not to forget Bobby's death defying speed boat ,bumpy yet
lots of fun. So far so good since
those heavy equipments that we towed for 1400 miles was put to
good use .Night fell it was time to party( due to the
graphic nature of the events that transpired that night we
apologize that we could not publish them)Photos

Deep
sea Fishing
This was our last full day in Miami and yes it was sunny and a perfect day for our fishing expedition. After Lake had arranged the fishing vessel that will take us to the deep sea waters of the Atlantic, most of us headed to the beach to take a final swim before leaving home tomorrow as the fishing schedule was not until 1 p.m. Miami's South Beach is notorious for its scantily clad beach-goers and true to its notoriety we spotted a few sun bathers but mostly concerned about the tan on their back sides until we ran across three women who were tanning their front sides and yes nothing but thongs and yeah they did not mind having their pictures taken with Lake beside them. One lucky son of a gun!!!! Hey don't forget who took the pictures ,its ME!!! At 1 p.m. we were rushing to the pier where we were taking the fishing vessel , we almost did not make it !
Rules were explained to all the fishing participants and a contest
was also set as to the biggest catch of the day wins a pot money. We
did not expect blue marlins nor amber jacks but we were hopeful. I
caught a mackerel and a kid caught a seemingly heavier yellow fin
tuna , Orly caught a blue jack and Lake got a stone fish but it was
tossed back by the captain. When we sailed back to pier I got the
heaviest catch and beat that kid which tipped the scale @ 81/2 lbs
winning the pot money. Not bad for a fishing trip where we got a
good tan and the experience of deep sea fishing. We
returned to our hotel rooms prepared some SUTOKIL, its a special
Filipino dish which consisted of broiling, boiling and preparing the
fish raw much like the Japanese sashimi.
