Well this weekend Loosefit had lots to drink, Sunday riding was quite unsuccessful with the major hangovers.
But on a brighter note the Burbs is getting closer to whips(painstakingly close)I'm still a fair bit off whips and had my first accident on a bike in a long long time practising them.
Some of the highlights of the weekends riding, nosedive 360s, fakey-ing the skatepark, Phil going up the box :) alleyoops on the 1/4 and those illusive whips
Lowlights: Hangover, stacking it and the cold weather
Bloody blisters!
War on memorial
Because the weather was so nice the Burbs and I headed off to War Memorial after work for a sesh.
Didnt really have the intention to learn new tricks and just go for a lil ride.
But it wasnt long till Burbs did an overclicked x up and I started doing 270s (which feels weird)
so after doubling the amount of riding we did at Oakley we rode away.
some of the tricks we failed at consist of 360s on the flat blank, 270 tyre taps, tyre tap to foot jam and of course whips but we're getting there.
Good sesh apart from tearing my hand to shreds with blisters, think some gloves are needed.
Keep it Loose

No Jokes . . .
We actually tried whips see for yourself!
Obviously some people are better than others. But give it time and all of us will be landing to pedals.

Loose Fit Rides
So yesterday was our first time out riding and it was cracking weather for it.
After a little delay fixing my chain, all four of us went out on way to ride Hook skatepark.
Think it was the 1st time for all of us not a bad little skatepark apart from the scooterfags.
It wasnt long until Phil got a puncture >_< After some time fixing it we then went and rode Oakley skatepark where we tried: abubucas/fufanus tiretaps tailwhips not a bad days ride if I do say so myself.

Death...
After taking a ride on sunday just gone, we concluded "death" only occurs if there is blood or broken bones, so the chalenge was set... Injure myself, which wasn't too hard being the least experienced of are little group...
After bottling it droping in and just trying to get at least some air up the Oakley skate park i realised that i was about to "die" but carried on regardless...
the result was bars to the crotch and blood :)
Love Phil
