yeah so um.. i got a dandy concussion on saturday. dented the back of my helmet flat.. i'm pretty sure my head woulda been exploded on the ground if i wasn't wearing the thing.. i've still been having symptoms..... i'm not supposed to be using the computer. i haven't been allowed to go to classes all week. i might be able to get 1 day in. i had to get a catscan of my brain to make sure it wasn't bleeding and got this massive syringe of junk injected into a catheter they stuck in my arm to make the blood show up or whatever. it was pretty cool actually.. then i got my pelvis x-rayed to make sure i didn't fracture it. both were negative for bad stuff though! so that's good... i've just gotta rest my head like crazy and not slam it any time soon.. this is my 3rd concussion that i know of.. (first from snowboarding though). i can't ride for a couple weeks. that totally sucks. i'm gunna go back and slide the crap out of that box i flew off of............ i can't believe i did that. it was bad. i was so bored these past few days not being allowed to do Anything that i knitted a bright green and pink headband. it's pretty rad... oh and i stickered my gnu pretty rad too..... i had a ton of stickers that had been piling up from random stuff for a while now. if you couldn't tell, i'm extremely bored right now.. i haven't done or gone anywhere for the past 3 and a half days except for 2 trips to the ER. and it's snowing out. at least i'm not getting a headache again from being on here....... that's a good sign.........
 
i got a new helmet (obviously) ... the one i smashed was the RED hi-fi which was seriously the most comfortable thing EVER!!! and it was sooo light... my new one is the scotty arnold pro-tec b2. i like the shape and look of it a whole lot more (pretty much exactly like my skate helmet....) but after having worn the awesome hi-fi for so long, anything else feels like crap. it was so uncomfortable and even though it was my size it rolled up on my forehead. so i was all bummed and didn't wanna return it so being my clever self, i pulled the hi-fi liner off the velcro and threw it in the pro-tec helmet. all of the sudden it was like "*heavenly singing*" again. i dunno what that liner is made of... some kind of memory foam or something.... but it's Amazing............ and the helmet fits all snug on my head again and doesn't roll anymore. so i'm pretty stoked about that. also the speakers in the earpads have vent things on the outside of them so pretty much everyone around me can be annoyed by my weird music and i can just be rocking out pretending i have no idea everyone's staring at me. haha fun stuff.. that's especially fun when 60 people are crammed into the little tram that goes to the top of jay. the whole tram can hear it. aaaaaaaah i can't wait to ride again!! i want the gnu b-street board.. so sick... i totally don't need it though.... my park board is only a year old... boo. anyways i'm rambling because once again......I'M BORED... but i'd better get off here so my brain doesn't explode. so have fun riding guys!!

so i got my front boards on this A-frame rail down today 2nd try whaaaaat. it was scary. it was awesome. stoked. .....oh let me clarify.. it was a RAIL. not a box, not a box-rail. thin steel yo. yeah i actually just started actually TRYING to hit actual rails like a week ago.. they always freaked me out... i pretty much wouldn't even 50-50 them. sliding boxes 39264309146 times before having a go at the rails again certainly has helped though! YAY!

sickkk.. riding's been fun even though the weather here sucks. everything's ice now.. i've been sessioning rails and boxes for a few days in a row now and i'm SO sore.. landing on the metal / ice kills.. i guess i somehow screwed up something in the back of my left knee yesterday cause i woke up this morning and it was hurting to walk, but i went riding today anyway, hiking this box for like 3 hours.... i got my 270s down again! i'd juuust learned em at the end of snowboard camp (hcsc!) over the summer and didn't Totally get em nailed, but now i don't really have a problem with them. i can't seem to get myself to 270 off of them though so i've gotta get that down. i'm also really stoked cause i got soo comfy on the boxes i started actually really going at the rails and was surprised how easy they were now! i pretty much got obsessed with boardsliding this A frame rail. i got hooked up with a lil film production company up here so i'll actually have riding pics from this season on here which i've always had a problem getting before cause i rode by myself so much! so i guess no more of that! it's pretty sick. and having people around all the time pushing ya to do crazier junk is VERY sick.. i'm learning a lot and it's great. so yeah there's a few pics to start and there'll definitely be more to come. hope you all have an AMAZING winter and learn some new fun crazy crap and just ... have FUN!! i'll probably be keepin this more updated.. so yeah! get out there and git er done
