So I jibbed this past week-end
and realized I'm getting too old for it...
Actually, I had fun; I kinda forgot how cool it was landing something big switch. I've been riding my lawnchairs so much this season thus far. I pulled out the freshly painted Line Dragons and they caught their second wind. My friend and his 6 year old skied with me... that kid can RIP! He just scoots up and slides the fun box without even sizing it up, and did rails for the first time - just skis on up and attempts to slide them. It was so cool watching him! He crashed on the flat rail on the last run of the day - cracked his goggles!!! I told him to hang his goggles on the wall in his bedroom. (Awhh, his first cracked goggles...) He sniffled a little bit, but a pepsi and a snickers bar cured that and he was stoked! Little bruise on his cheekbone from smacking the rail... and his mom has a conference with his teacher today! Hah hah! His dad and I just laughed - we'll see how she explains that one to the teacher!
I jibbed this weekend too...

Seriously, I'm the oldest person in the park by at least 10 years. Granted, I still look like I'm 18 so it all evens out.
Got hooked on rails (feel free to substitute "hooked on" with "destroyed by") a few weeks ago and went out and got some jib skis and I've been killin' it (okay, killing myself) every weekend since. Sure as heck seem to bruise a lot easier now than I used to.
Stay tuned for road trip's jib TR's coming soon (as soon as I can coax somebody into taking pics...).
