East Coast National WWAC/WKTG Championships


RESULTS
"Saturday saw a beautiful day and Mike Bainton's traveling target board set up and people having fun flinging knives and hawks. We got the tournament started around 1:00 pm and had everyone throw 8' for a half spin and followed by 1 spin 1 1/2 spin 2 spin and 2 1/2 spins with each participant throwing 5 knives at each distance 4 times for a total of 100 knives. We also threw hawks 1 spin and 1 1/2 spins." - Joe Darrah

knife throwing competitors
From top left to right: Tim Jester, Joe McCollough, Ed Imperatore (aka "Dirt Poor Ed"), Mike Bainton, Miki Cirkovic, and Damon Wilson. Bottom left is Ethan Ramsey (Lightning!) and Tim Valentine.




Here is Che Che Whitecloud, one of the greatest impalement artists of all time! His family has been throwing for over 200 years! and standing to the right of Che Che is Thomi Hawk. Thomi is a big part of the WWAC and made sure everything went smoothly throughout the day.




Here is "Dirt Poor Ed" at the 1/2 spin distance.


Here Tim Valentine, from "The Sticking Point" Web site, is getting ready to throw.


On the left is Kevin Ramsey, also known as "Throwin' Thunder", a very well known whip artist, along with Larry Zwickel (aka Cowboy Larry) a great wild west entertainer from the Frontier Riders. If you look closely you can see that Kevin is holding a raw spaghetti noodle between his fingers and Larry is "trimming it down"!


This is "Alamo" Mike Bainton from Austin, TX after hurling some hawks 1 spin. Does that target setup look familiar? Its Mike's portable target that he brought from home. The entire thing folds up and slides onto a trailer that gets pulled behind Mike's truck! I heard the Discovery Channel is going to do a piece on it in one of their upcoming "Engineering Guru" shows :-)


Here we have Ethan Ramsey, a definite "throwing force" to be reckoned with in the future!


Thomi and Ethan are up scoring the round. And what a round it was! Nice job "Lightning"!!!


This is Kevin Ramsey (Ethan's Dad).


This is one of my favorite pictures from the event. There are 3 things happening in this picture. On the left, Cowboy Larry is listening intently to someone off camera. In the middle, Che Che Whitecloud is looking at Joe Darrah's hand and wondering what the heck he's holding the knife like that for, and then we have Joe on the right, who just noticed I was about to take a picture and had to spin around and pretend to be tossing me a knife! :-)




This is Tim Jester from Houston, TX. on the left and Joe Darrah on the right keeping score and coaching as the event went on.


Damon Wilson is throwing in this picture. He is one smooth, consistent thrower from Virginia!


And this is why Mike has won atleast 6 first place trophies this year alone in our sport. There's something very strange in this picture... like TOO MANY BULLSEYES! :-) Congratulations Mike, it was great hanging out with you, and everyone else at the event!
