my amazing day...

So I decided that today for an off topic blog I would tell you about my day and how well it went. So my friend and I went to Dagmar to go snowboarding. I landed some new stuff so I'm pretty stocked on that. But I ended up spraining my wrist. On the way home around six I called my work to let them know that I would not be coming in tonight due to the pain of my wrist. One of the managers who I think is a butt nugget, fired me! Oh joy! I stubbed my toes on my and now they are bruised. What a great night eh? So now I'm jobless, have a sprained wrist and bruised toes and to top it all off, I hurt my back. Don't you wish you had my amazing day(note sarcasm)? So that how my Saturday went... Stay tuned for Tuesdays special surprise post!@!

vendredi 5 février 2010

So last night while laying in bed I got an idea for a blog post. I wanted to write about old school skateboarding, back when skateboarding first started. I really envy the old ways of skating. Its what lead to present day skating.But old school skating is very different from what it is today. As you can see on the picture I posted with this post this is what they used to do while they skated unlike the present day skater that you see everywhere. Skateboarding started back in the 1950`s. The boards were oddly shaped with very large wheels to coast around. Today they are shaped all the same way wheels are the exact same and trucks are the same to so. That's why skateboarding back in the day really gets my respect.

Heres the video for day 1 at the tampa am. All theses skaters are very talented and were trying very hard. But at the end of the competition only a certain few will win it. The results were the following : in first Luan Oliveira, second place was Ben Hatchell and third place was Nick Tucker. There is a list up to 12 but there is no point of me putting up all 12. Anywho heres day one's results
