Colten flips at last!

Posted on 28 November 2009 by Mom

Okay, finally….sorry it’s taken me a while.  School is back and I’ve been a little busy trying to get all my libraries open for the year.  While Wade sits to watch a scary movie on TV I thought I could get this done and try to ignore the TV.  I’ll probably still have bad dreams but anyway here’s how it went down…

Caleb and Colten left for Clovis on Thursday.  Wade and I had to work on Friday so we didn’t get to see their practice on Friday afternoon.  Caleb called and said that Colten had practiced his backflip and he felt really good about it and was ready to go.  I would give you more detail but that is about all Caleb said about it.  Of course it’s just a typical every day event for Caleb but Wade and I still haven’t gotten that comfortable with it so it is still a big deal to us.

Wade and I got up early Saturday morning and headed to Clovis.  Brent (a friend from Wade’s work) and his girlfriend (Kristen) went with us.  We got to Clovis around 3:00 or so.  We called the boys to try to meet up with them but they were at an autograph session at a McDonald’s across town.  We went and found our hotel.  Charles and Butch caught up with us there and we all got signed in.  We had to stay at a different hotel from the boys because the one the boys were at was all booked up.  But it was only a couple of blocks up the road.  Charles and Butch went into town and we waited for the boys to meet us.  Once they showed up we found a restaurant/bar where I could have a drink and the boys could play some pool and just “chill” before the show.  (We all have our own ways of preparing for a show!)

It finally came time for us to go to the stadium.  There were motorcycles and quads everywhere.  The fair was going on just up from the stadium and it looked like it was going to be a pretty big crowd.  Caleb went to the promoter and tried to convince him to pay a little extra and he would flip as well as Colten.  It would be the first ever “double flipper” show.  The promoter declined so it looked like Colten would be the highlight of the show!  The races began and so we just had to hang out and wait.  While Brent, Kristen and I found a place in the stands, Wade went to meet up with Charles and Butch.  (Just a FYI – Wade is now asleep in his recliner and I have changed the TV to “America’s Got Talent” so maybe I won’t have bad dreams unless they have some really bad contestants tonight!HA!)  Anyway, back to the story….The boys were down at the pickup getting ready so I decided to go check on them.  I was walking along the way when a pickup came up behind me and what do ya know – it was MarySue trying to find a place to park.  I didn’t even know she was going to be there! We got her settled and then headed back to the stands.  In just a few minutes Wade had found Wes, Whitney, Caden and Maddie and brought them up to the stands to us.  Now I had a “comfort group” around me while I anxiously waited for the boys to do their thing.  I’m pretty sure they were even more anxious than I was but at least we all had each other.

Here’s Maddie enjoying the show!

Finally the boys came out to do their part of the show.  They immediately threw out some of their biggest tricks.  It really is amazing to watch the two of them together.  The announcer was doing a great job of engaging the audience.  Then Caleb went to the announcer and started talking up Colten to the crowd.  He explained how Colten had been practicing this backflip for over a year, had crashed it more than once and had been scheduled to perform it several times and still had never done it before a crowd.  This was his moment and this was the crowd that would experience the first Colten flip.  I watched Colten come towards the ramp in the stand up position.  Like I’ve explained before, when he is coming toward the ramp in the stand up position, you know he’s got the flip on his mind.  He did one straight jump for assurance.  I expected at least one more straight jump before he actually pulled the flip but there it was – he went up the ramp, he pulled back and around he went.  I was videotaping but I didn’t get a very good view and I’m sure the screaming on the playback is a little distracting.  I would like to say it was some crazy person standing next to me that was doing the screaming but I have to be honest, it was me.  It wasn’t a scream of fear by any means, it was a scream of pure delight!  Colten landed the flip perfectly and I was so extremely proud of him at that moment!

We had been waiting for this moment for so long and it finally happened!  Thank God!  And I mean Thank God!  I believe that what the boys do is a gift from God!  And I do thank Him every time!  Fortunately there were others who videotaped and then shared….you can see at….

So now we can breathe a little easier…until the next time that is!  I was so glad that Grandmother and Grandaddy, MarySue, Whitney and her family were there.  It means a lot to all of us that we have a great family who support us.  I believe that support is a huge component of the boys’ success!

After the show the boys signed autographs and someone wanted their picture with their 9 day old baby.  I think the boys were a little bit surprised by this one!

We all made our way back home on Sunday.  Colten’s birthday was Monday and then on Tuesday, they left for France.  I’ll try to write up a little about that trip in a couple of days (they have since come back and told me a few details – I could share more if they would just take me with them everywhere they go!)

Be sure to watch for the “double flipper” show …I’m sure it’s coming soon!

Caleb Moore Update 10-23-09

Posted on 23 October 2009 by admin

Well here we are, been hanging out in California for a little over a week now and already having lots of fun and had a couple get offs. Started out going to Perris Speedway for a demo there on Saturday, with a lot of headwind all the guys really had to compensate and adjust but using the new H-bomb landing things went awesome. It’s definitely one of the best landings I’ve ever jumped to so it should help everyone take things to the next level.

We left out of Perris immediately after the show and headed out to Lake Havasu which I’ve heard so much about and now finally got the chance to spend some time there. Needless to say it did not disappoint and we had a great time there including a demo for the world jet ski finals, cliff jumping, and some water tube flights performed by Okie and Nick, followed up by a plane ride for the record books. Continuing on our adventure the next day we traveled out to Dumont Dunes where we spent 2 days hanging out going big, eating sand and having a generally great time. Now back at the H-bomb compound we’re just relaxing for a few days and getting ready for our next show in Mexicali Mexico, make sure and catch us there if you can. See ya

ATV jumps wow the crowd at the IJSBA World Finals

By DAVID BELL
Today’s News-Herald

Tuesday, October 13, 2009 9:23 PM MST

Fans of the IJSBA Personal Watercraft World Finals are used to seeing some amazing flips and spins through the air. But usually the rider starts on the water.

Tuesday, spectators saw the Bomb Squad Battalion fly Polaris 525 all-terrain vehicles through the air during the lunch break in the PWC racing. The demonstration was thanks to the team’s manager, B.C. Vaught, who has family at both Vista Del Lago and Havasu Landing. Continue Reading

Caleb Moore Update 09/30/09

Posted on 30 September 2009 by admin

Well guys this past weekend was a bit rough on the team, or mostly Colten haha, We started off going out to Dan Weeks for the annual Pinn-It Bash which Okie, Nick and JR rode in and rode awesome. but towards the end of the show Colten was supposed to put on a little demo for the crowd and he decided to come up about 2 feet short so he took a trip to the ground and kinda knocked himself around but no broken bones which is always good. As for me I was just kinda in charge of making sure everything was going the way it was supposed to but when Colten went down things got kind of crazy but it turned out ok. As for the next day we headed out to a local race for the north vs south end of season race. Nick and I put on a little demo for the crowd which went alot better then my racing skills. I figured out I still have the speed but no where near the endurance to be racing haha. In the razr race I was hanging in 3rd on the first lap all over 2nd but with a stock width razr it’s pretty hard to keep up in the corners so I figured I would test out the new Spectrum UTV roll cage they helped me out with. Upon laying the razr on its side I figured out the cage works great! Success! haha anyways that was about it, check us out at the next stop, till then watch for our next crazy adventure.

Caleb Moore Update 09/24/09

Posted on 24 September 2009 by admin

Hey guys,

Well things have been busy and full of stories as usual. Starting with a trip to Spain and a drive on into France with fellow bombsquad rider Rafa Munoz, we headed to the show known as Polaris camp. Arriving to what is known as one of the top tracks in France for motocross, and having roots that go back for years in motocross I was more then excited. After setting up first thing I made sure to take care of was a few laps around the track in a Razr S. Rafa might have gotten a little scared as we launched over most of the jumps on the track but I was have a great time on a track of national caliber. The next day the show went off without a hitch and we got to hang out with the local crazy french for a while before taking off back to Spain where it was time to go home. Soon after getting home we started another crazy trip, and lets just say this one got even more wild then usual. With 5 riders in one truck, 15 hours to kill each way, and a couple days of fun on the ramps and in the mud it made for a pretty great trip. We had the Highlifter Mudnationals in Georgia this weekend and with all of our riders including, Dylan, JR, Nick, Colten and I it was a show of all new levels. Not to mention the hour of razr rides I gave after the show to everybody from event promoters, to local law enforcement, to a couple important people in the quad industry that are helping push us all farther out into the public eye. As Dylans first show back since his broken wrist we were all a bit nervous for him and his first hit on the ramp, but in true style and skill he hit the ramp perfect first time and everything was cake from there besides one good nut check I saw him perform to a T. HAHA. Anyways with another show in the books we’re back home just in time for the closing of what seems to be the monsoon season here in texas. We’ve had serious rain for the past 2 weeks and lets just say the foam pit has become a swimming pool practically. Its kind of nice being back home for a few days with just getting off shows in Michigan, France, and now Georgia. Anyways I’ll check back in with you guys later on.
