Vacuum seal it, put it in a clean room, and play it soothing classical music for 24 hours.

My thoughts exactly, in the summer i longboard until the cars come out then I hit up the surf, and i longboard when the cars leave, I love it.

I remember waking up and taking a shower one day of senior year...I leaned over to pick up the shampoo and slipped. I was laying down and I was so tired I fell asleep...I awoke an hour later to my dad yelling through the door what the f-ck I was doing.

I learn from experience.

I usually watch longboarding videos on the net for the rest of the day after a session. I don't calm down until later in the night, thats when it hits me.
