CURT DAVIS INVITATIONAL MUSTACHE GROWING CONTEST OF PADDLE SPORTS - tons of prizes!


Back to Mustache Home Page

April 1st, 2006 - See the original entries!

April 9th, 2006 - As a 30 year old man, I am finally to the point where I actually "need to" or could shave every day, or every couple at least. After seeing some of the updates from this week I feel a little more adequate about my mustache growing ability. Maybe I'll enter next year. Though it is hard being a professional mustache official and competing at the same time. It's a real struggle. Do I want to be an incredibly hilarious entertainer, rattling off side splitting jokes with every sentence or a rock solid athlete, able to grow body hair without flenching? You can't learn these skills. You have to be born with them.
Sincerely,

Spencer Cooke, Effort.tv

Pyranha I:3 and Eskimo Kendo - Placerville, CA
Austin writes, "Evan is doing better at growing zits than a 'stache, but he doesn't care as he's off to Snowbird for a week of shredding the pow.  Once I grow a week,  I have to name any facial hair - this week it's the "Dirty Harry".  (for you kids - that's a Clint Eastwood movie)"

4. Andrew Huber, Wave Sport EZ, Burlington, VT - Andrew writes, "After your scathing judgement of my photo last week I didn't know if I could handle the pressure, but 3 boxes of kleenex, 6 dozen xanax, and most of a "cool down" period spent camping outside my local gun store later, I'm back for more. (Damn you Clinton and your hippy dippy Brady Bill!) So without further ado, here's this week's entry to the contest. I hope you enjoy my mustache as much as I do."

5. Trip Jennings, Liquidlogic Jefe, Eugene, OR - Trip Writes, " As you can see my stache has grown with leaps and bounds."

7. Mike Nail, Wave Sport Diesel & Jackson 4fun, Black Mountain, NC Mike writes, "This is a totally awesome competition.  I am not the best at growing the old' stache, but im tryin!"

8. Patrick Bresnahan, Inazone232, H3....cola, SC and Etowah, NC Patrick writes, "I am going for the classic "Thomas Magnum" (the bald version)...no fu man chu or other shenanigans."

9. Hartley Barber, Liquidlogic Gus & Perception Full Tilt, Columbia SC - Hartley writes, "I'm down here in Disney World celebrating the opening of the First International CurtDavis (one name) Mustache Growing Competition of Paddle Sports with my most supportive family. I would not prefer any other place on the planet of imagination..."

10. Reed Moore, Savage Fury, Asheville, NC - Reed writes, " I feel I should say that I'm from columbia, sc along with the rest of those guys from there, although I'm up here at wwc now. I also feel that I should say I paddle a pyranha micro as well as the fury, but not as much. alright. thanks."

11. Chris Tretwold, Liquidlogic Jefe, Bellingham, WA Chris writes, "never could grow hair all that fast. beats looking like a monkey."
*.

12. Craig Adams, Bliss Stick Scud & Rad, New Zealand Craig writes, " ...its game on now!"
Craig may very well have pulled himself into the lead this week with an extremely smooth play. He had sent in his stache update photo with a "soul patch", that silly litte tuft of hair under his lower lip. We called a foul on him for "trying to look stylish" and he shaved the patch and sent a new photo. A very curteous move on Craig's part, and for a noble cause.

13. Matt Fithian, the Academy of Huge Experiences
We almost put Matt on probation for those chops but we let him slide.

14. Israel Putnam, Pyranha 420 bro, Bryson City, NC Israel writes, "First of all, where is your entry Spencer? It shows incredibly poor sportsmanship for you to withold your prickly facial pieces from the rest of us. Second, all you better watch out. If NOC's Guest Appreciation Festival has taught us anything, it's that I always have an ace in the hole for times like this!"
Dear Israel, please don't use that tone of voice with me. Yelling doesn't solve anything. And yes, I'm sure you have an ace in your hole. Don't brag about it.

15. Zuzana Vanha, Pyranha H3, Bryson City, NC. Zuzana writes, "Though my mustache is off to a somewhat slow start, there are seven weeks remaining, and I am confident that I will be the ultimate mustachce champion. The femastache will prevail."

18. Garrett Bryant, Liquidlogic Jefe, Bryson City, NC Garrett writes, "I feel like my blonde hair has me at a disadvantage... however, once the pedophile'stache starts filling in, there will be no survivors. Also- I am just now realizing that I will continue to not have a girlfriend for at least the next two months. My mustache game is not fully developed."

19. Moffatt Prescott, Liquidlogic Jefe, Columbia, SC. Moffatt Writes, "Here it is, my beginnings of cultivation.  Farm on!!!  Oh yeah tell that Canadian I said bring it."

Those under mustache PROBATION... The following contestants have committed acts of disjustice to the mustache community that we like to call, "trying to look cool to hide the fact that you're growing a mustache." Therefore, these individuals are on mustahce probation and have the next week to reflect on the err of their ways and to set things right this coming Sunday. If the chin hair doesn't come off by next week, scores may fall drastically. Just know that looking cool never got anyone anywhere. Your ridiculous fashion sense is part of what makes you a kayaker but a mustache can negate the fact that your drytop clashes with your paddling pants, helmet and boat.

And now, the shamed and exiled, dropouts, idlers, layabouts, loafers, deadbeats, delinquents and burnouts. Now guys, we're just pulling your chain you know... You made a noble effort at hair growth but for some reason things didn't work out. Maybe next year. But we still wanted to recognize you for your lack of effort this week. You didn't think you'd get off that easily did you?


25. Tom Sherburne, Shred Ready, Auburn, AL
Tom is our very gracious sponsor of Shred Ready Helmets for this year's mustache contest. Though, to be completely fair about the rules, Tom did not enter until this week. Therefore, he is automatically disqualified. This is an official mustache foul and Tom is being benched. Please don't fire me Tom. Now see, as we said in the original rules, we are not biased or slanted in any way. He is allowed to chart his mustache growth for the next two months if he wants to but he will not be eligible for the winnings. Tom is a grown man and has incredibly healthy lip hair follicles. He is a model mustache grower with alot to offer. His upper lip is wise. Watch and learn from it.
