Hang Five!
November 5th, 2009 • 3 comments skateboarding, Slice O' Life, Surfing
This morning I went logging on my noserider and got a legit Hang-Five on a small glassy left. Man, it was so cool, that’s a memory that will stick for as long as I live. Now I’ve got to Hang Ten, for sure.
Later today, while I was working, a guy on a skateboard got hit by a truck. He’s ok, I think. I didn’t see the incident. Nothing broken, but a lot of road rash. It’s scary, it could happen to anyone, especially me. I’m always skating in the street. I hope the guy is OK.
That’s why I try and go against traffic whenever possible. It’s one way to avoid a sneak attack from behind. A little something my pops taught me as a kid. So remember, as long as you think the cars won’t see you, the better off you are. Gotta be on the D-E-F-E-N-C-E.
I don’t know what riding a longboard and getting hit by a car on a skateboard have in common, I guess just board riding in general. It’s two sides to the same coin, beauty and the beast.
Mushy warm surf. Set up the skate.

The surfs been warm, but lacking any power, shape or “zaz.” So I finally took time to set up my skateboard, I had the back kingpin stripped, so I couldn’t tighten it as all, no precision. So now I am ready for land, water and air. Huzah.
