Butterflies...or does it?
Yeah, my gut's kinda hurtin'. I get to pull another one of my famous "Bid-nez Trips." This time to Portland. I will get to skate - I'm going out for training and have no customer obligations. Just put in the old 8 - 5 then skate. There are 19 parks in Portland. I will attempt to skate at least 3 of 'em.
You've read about my fear of Burnside. I plan to go back and spend some time there and get some footage and pics. What I'm really stoked (read: shitting in my pants out of fear) about is Pier Park.
Sure we've got a pipe in Louisville. But does it have pool coping around the bowl on the outside? Unh-uh. And look close - there is sunlight coming in the side. THERE'S A HOLE IN IT!!!!! (WTF?) So, I packed some Depends. Ya never know. Well, in this particular case, I'm pretty sure.

I want to see vid of a rock & roll on the lip of that hole in the pipe.
Oh, and Pool coping = great front side grinds! So I envious too!

Depends for the Deep End... The hole is how those of us with adult onset vagina get into the deep end. (It's a roll-in) Because everywhere else, there's at least a foot of vert... Say hi to Kilwag, Mark Conahan and the SkateandAnnoy.com crew!
I think next years' vid is gonna be "the Skidzilla show."

Oh, I see. You know, we're really going to have to overcome our fear of the excessively vertical drop-in. It's just a drop-in, right?
I pledge to attempt a drop-in deeper than I've tried at the park (8' pool area is the deepest I've tried) the next time I'm there. Who's with me?

What's this WE chit NoShow? I bounced my face on the flat of the vert ramp on "just a drop in." I don't fear the drop in or the vertical... I fear the sudden stop at the bottom.

Well then I guess it'll be my turn for face-bouncin'. Did you bounce off of the wood or off the 'crete in the deep?
My elbow is about healed and I almost have feeling in both of my knees. I'm about due for another hard landing...
