Cross yo fingers

At work today a coworker came up to me and said "the GM just called from the warehouse and he found a radio so he's bringing back to use".No big deal right,well I dont trust the guy who gave me this info,it's probably no big thing but it really makes me nervous.
On a more upbeat note I get to session with woodstock this weekend,I'M STOKED and he'll be stoked to see Brett ride cuz Brett has really been getting his chops back.

p.s i'm totally addicted to downloading flat footage...joe

Sarge's buddy

My Page has a comment by Nels where he posted some footage of Sarge's friend from the Tacoma 'contest' a few years ago. Pretty funny.

Busted

Well, I tried to get in a session for mother's day and I did. It was pretty warm outside, but the ghetto courts were clear, I had them to myself. Plenty of people around, though. I was doing pretty good, messing around with going from a hang-ten halfpack combo into a tea kettle (basically a bar-split steam-roller with my peg leg in front of the bars). I didn't get close, but it doesn't feel too abnormal or weird. I went to pedal for speed and BAM!! my chain broke. I went down, hard. I heard a few laughing and it sucked, but I tried to shake it off. I rode for a little bit longer, but I just couldn't keep my head straight and I kept getting frustrated when I would go for the pedal on an exit and get a pedal in my shin.
If anybody wants their mind blown, go to Global-flat and get the large file for the Ninja spin in Paris, France. You will not believe what people are doing on their bikes IN A FLATLAND RUN! The file is huge (over 200 mgs) but worth it. European flat comps seem to be unreal and everyone was there, including our favorite, Nate P., who snagged fourth.

Steve's video

Get this video and more at MySpace.com
Ok, here is the video Steve made. I chopped the beginning off and the ending, too. But everything else is his deal. Great video! He must have good software...
I have been looking at video cameras and I just can't talk myself into justifying the purchase. Too bad because this is so much fun!

Session

I had a good session on sunday. I basically hit most of my tricks first try. Hydrant/switch steam/flip/ pegahawk/steam/pinky-squeak...pulled it first time. Turbine/pinkys...Yup. Hang-ten/half-hike...yeah. Switch-steam/ pinky/ hang-five kick exit...done. I thought I was gonna do the BIG TRICK, but alas, it didn't happen. Pretty much stopped pulling everything a few minutes later. Sigh, oh well. I have been riding alone alot since the Sarge is MIA and even using my music. I hate to think how much shit I gave Sargy about his Ipod, but I have to admit that I am getting used to it and it's kinda hard to not have it. Duo is my main tunes right now, along with Deep Forest. And Riverside is a keeper. No bagpipes for me!
