Mother's Day

Yesterday was mother's day and I didn't get to skate. Where is the justice in that?

In honor of...

I've been skating quite a bit despite the snow and cold. While indoor skateparks are not my fav they work in a pinch. Now the weather is warming up so I can go out to the local parks here in Denver and adapt all my skatelite learning to concrete. Unfortunately, one thing I will now be doing more of is "kick, push" due to the loss of a great skate buddy named Max. Max was my 'tow dog'. He was a boxer that loved nothing more than to get a leash on and pull me and my longboard around the park full speed ahead. While he had never been on a board and I think maybe only at the actual skate park once or twice he really was one of the best skate buddies. Of course, I miss him for many more reasons than our runs around the park, but I'm particularly going to miss him when I pull out the longboard. Anyway, I just wanted to recognize him here, because he was a lot of fun to skate with.

Happy New Year

It's been colder than a witch's tit and there is NO outdoor skating with all the snow and ice. So, we've been hitting Woodward. I finally, FINALLY have my backside kick turn down on the 1/2 pipe! WooT! Now I'm almost ready for killing the bowls.
