Bum Bum Bum! Turns out, one of my sisters probably felt guilty about yesterday so she agreed to go with me to the skate park with me that day! At the very worst timing. Yesterday i was so pumped to go, but today i was so put off by the whole conflict yesterday and I was still angry. "Great, this cant be good" I thought as I was getting ready. never gone down a ramp and my brain was turned in to much from the stress. I don't have the proper slates you see. =_=. if i break these, (Blade Runner with 4, 79'' sized wheels) its over. T^T After finally taking off to skate i arrived to find a friend from school and his buddies chilling out. Park was mostly empty. Perfect for a lame skater such as my self! =D Not that im really affected by being seen looking like an idiot in front of everyone. Ive gotten used to it when i first started learning. But falling still sucks. After a lot of falling I made two inliner friends, one junkie "used to skate with quads guy" who left to smoke pot or something. (which made me feel kinda bummed. i don't like meeting people of that nature. Destroying there lives...) A kid skateboarder, and saw a BMXer and an adult skate boarder. Which is great to see. ^_^ I fell on my first ramp. Fell reeeally hard. Like- i still have a huge bruise 2 days after- hard. But everyone there is supportive in there own way. So I had a lot of fun on other ramps or just loving the smooth ground. Much better than the streets. =D Even the guy who skated the 11 ft ramp (which I only admired) fell at some point. Its comforting knowing were all allowed to screw up. ^_^
After that day I came home veery tired but glad I went. Something about the experience left me feeling uneasy and somewhat miserable at the same time though. Maybe I didn't give it as much effort as i was supposed to. Or maybe I've just grown used to riding alone outside of a skate park. Like I didn't quite belong there. But after i rested for a while all I could remeber with a smile were the ramps, and area. I really loved them and just wanted to forget about the people I got weird vibes from. Ever felt like that? Guess Im just saying retarded nonsense now huh. ^_^ But yeah! That was my day. How was your first time??
I know I write alot. I'm the "writer" kinda person...

Cool now i'v have to hit the park, its cool being a loner but that sounds like fun.
I'd have to pass on the huge ramp though, no helmate.

I've never been to an empty park, that sucks for me because I'm learning...
But I went to a semi empty park, most of them just did the same line up and down one side of the park....no one hit the smaller QPs so I just did some ridding on them. It was great to pump the ramps.... but the best feeling came when I heard the CLANG of the coping which goes along with your first stall =D
Before that day I was too shy to do anything daring, but after the sound of that CLANG I just started to go for it....except rails, but thats my next venture :P
