another fun night sesh in the hood.
my legs were trashed from the weekend so i took it chill.
tried a fancy slide into some sprinkler run off and lost it, didnt hit the deck but the board shot down White Oak for a solid 100 yards at full speed. thank goodness it didnt hit a car.

Cutting boards are the ticket. Get some Garilla glue and some industal strenght velcro and you are set.

Went climbing at Squamish today, at the base of the Grand Wall. Lots of nice 1 - 4 pitch crack climbs there. We ran across some climbers who were carrying a skateboard, and asked if they were planning the first skateboard descent of the wall, etc etc. (No camera visible, though.) They said no, we were on a route called Seasoned in the Sun, and the board came out of the sky and nearly whacked us.
The route is directly below the Roman Chimneys at the top of the Grand Wall, a spot accessible to knowledgeable hikers. Perhaps a skateboarder was on the summit slabs and lost it over the edge? Very mysterious.
This also helps prove that skateboarding is dangerous and not to be attempted. I stick with safe things like bicycle racing, climbing, and backcountry skiing.

AINAM report: "This accident could have been prevented had the victim not gotten decapitated by a flying skateboard while climbing."

not very exiting, but...
failed attempt at the fire gate. cruizer little hill on the way back to my house that narrows to a fire road with a gate that's always closed. made it through once before but rubbed out on the curb a few feet after and ended up on my ass.
