Jon Cardwell - '07 Natl Champion!

Jon Cardwell (18yrs) from Albuquerque, NM won the ‘07 USAC Adult Difficulty National Championships March 24-25 at X-Treme in Miami, FL. Jon secured his number 1 spot on the US Men’s Difficulty National Team with a dominating performance on the men’s final, crushing 8 moves further than any other competitor on the .13d route. Jon becomes the 3rd NM resident to win a national title. The resistence circuit training over the past few weeks in TF’s newly constructed “87106 Game Room” private training facility is paying off. Jon will be spending the next 2 months training with Timy in the “Game Room” in preparation for the ‘07 ICC World Cup circuit where he will be spending 3 months in Europe this summer.

Way to put it down for the “505”!
