It's been a week now since the Simple Session took place in Estonia and like most of the people that made the trip, it took a bit of time to recover. The stories and the parties are a big part of the event but it wears you out, at least it hit me. In the meantime you've seen plenty of videos pop up of the event, from people who partly skipped the partying but they got their job done. It's always tough to go sit behind a computer when you know everyone is in town having a good time. Sometimes I just take the moment and enjoy it, rather than sit in the hotel room by myself typing up a story and getting some pictures online. In fact, this year we had a photographer there in the name of Artem, from Russia. He needed a pass, and we needed pics. Since I was stuck behind the judging table again (for about 7 hours straight on Saturday during qualifying of 100+ pro riders), it was good to have a man in the field. He came back with some killer shots so even if you don't want to read the entire report, you can enjoy Artem's pics.
The Simple Session is always an killer event to look out for.
