Default Re: How was your daily longboarding ride/s?

I just went out a while ago, back to the scene of the crime where I was booted out by a cop a few weeks ago...I figured, what the hell, no one's gonna tell me where I can or can't skate. Rode for about an hour, the climate here is so humid right now that I came back soaked looking like I just came back from a wet-tshirt contest. I'll post pix later, haha.

I do have a bit of a creepy story about the last time I rode the circle down the t-head, it's an extension from the seawall I like to cruise. So there I was down there having a bit of a blast cross stepping and carving away, when all of a sudden a city worker pulled into the circle with his truck. I guess he was checking on the water sprinklers or some junk like that, I didnt really pay him much mind. I decided to give the coffin carves a try, and I was getting them down pretty easy. Coming to a turn I was jamming away with my mp3 so I couldn't hear a thing, and here I come into the turn doing a coffin carve as I look up to see the truck backing up and heading straight for me. Seeing as how I was down near the ground and stiff as a board I can only think he never saw me. I quickly jumped up, grabbed my board and ran away as he continued to back up. Dodged that bullet just barely, the dude woulda cut off my head if I didnt see him when i did.

Moral of that story: The coffin carve almost landed me in a coffin, how I love it so!
Keep away from city workers riding trucks in your skating spot, you just may lose your head!!
