I went boarding today and learned some new moves! It was super fun. I worked on my flat 360's and tried to get better at nose pressing at least 180's. We worked on my ollie jumps and smoother landings (which I very much needed). Then we (we being Ben and I, Ben is the best boarder we have on the mountain) went to the upper mountain and worked on dynamic turns. It felt amazing! With the guts for a little bit of speed and a lot of lean, its a mix of floating free and then some "g" forces thrown back at you. amazing. then I was showered with praise and envious remarks from some of the guys that said it took them 6 weeks to learn what I did in a day and finally I have multiple standing invitations to ride with them and almost as many invitations for dates. Silly I know. I sound like a kid given praise, but I think even we "grown ups" need just simple ego boosts every once in while, and I needed one. (and the flirting was fun too)
