somewhat skate related, this chick is repping Fine-Co:


hahahahahahah!

I worked at the worlds largest block party yesterday and helped my buddies charity Amigo Skate Cuba raise money for skateboards and musical gear to bring to Cuba to give them to impoverished and downtrodden youth of Havana. We raised a good amount of money, and got to witness debauchery and classlessness as the day grew longer. It was fairly entertaining aside from when the cops chased a dude carrying a gun within 5 feet of me after the guy got finished shooting another guy for a parking spot. Stay classy miami.

[VdubbPeach]

Went to a park a little bit from my house with a friend. I've been there before but I had to go back. Usually empty and everything is fairly big. Very fast.

[GtIVR6-RJ]

It is a very fun park and everything is pretty big. You can definatly carry a ton of speed thru that place.

[Ericc.]

ahhh and i love speed

[GtIVR6-RJ]

well you got me beat, I can never find flow in bowls
The park I frequent has a new crete bowl thats pretty fun though, gonna try and figure it out this season

[JERSEY_WABBIT]

That's all I do now is skate the bowls at my local park. It helps my surfing alot

[VdubbPeach]

The euro is a ton of fun. With the way it's set up, you can get so much speed it's almost effortless

[JPawn1]

I sneezed once and sprained my back. No lie.

[Clytor]

JPawn, stoked on the Moto Devil. Saw the promo video. World is small sometimes.

[JPawn1]

Thanks man, indeed it is small.

here's the vid in case anyone has any interest:

I sneezed once and sprained my back. No lie.

my friend did this in high school once and honestly thought it was one of the funniest things ive ever seen

[JPawn1]

It's funny in the sense that it's really a freak accident kind of thing, but it's not funny at all how bad it hurt.

I have a birth defect, or better described as a hereditary condition known as Ligamentous Laxity. It's not very common (I've never met anyone with it.) Essentially my ligaments are ridiculously stretchy which allows me to dislocate every joint in my body. I can freely dislocate fingers, my elbows, knees, shoulders...etc...like a party trick.

Unfortunately it leaves me prone to sprains, and that's exactly what happened with my back. I sneezed while I was falling down onto my couch which cause me to stiffen up, in turn dislocating my back at the lumbar and causing a lot of ligament and muscle stress resulting in a fairly severe sprain.

On the other hand I do avoid breaking bones for the most part (I've never broken a bone at a joint.) And I also can heal a bit faster from ligament damage when compared to someone without this issue. In the long run it sucks though. I'm hoping it skipped my kids, but I'm skeptical on that. I've been told crap like this skips generations, but my dad has signs of it, though not nearly as severe as I have it.
