Nope, no stalking, orislater :).

And wow, it seems that we do have lots in common.

I got cut up pretty badly today - I decided to try kickflipping onto the grinding rail (I was encouraged to start skating again by this topic :)).

First of all, the grinding rail was way too high
second of all - I can barely ollie onto the rail
third of all - I haven't managed the kickflip yet
fourth of all - Well, it was stupid :)

At least I was wearing my brand new x-games helmet :). No knee pads, though :(.

I skateboard.
I hate getting hurt, and I hate wearing pads, so I do mostly flatground tricks. I can do just about all of the standard flatground tricks - hardflip, tres, lazers, etc. The only one I haven't got yet is inward heels. I just learned nollie heels, but I can't do them very well yet. :)

I hurt my knee trying a backside air transfer a few weeks ago it sucks. I have to get an MRI in a few weeks. But here's the skate video I made with my friends last summer! I only have a few tricks.
