360 flip to fakie dream sequence

Last night I had a dream. I was 360 flipping a long board. It felt great. I was kicking the back tail and flicking the front foot just so. I lost 360 flips a long time ago, but there was a time when they were semi regs.

I put a new board together last night. Worst grip tape job ever. I don't know what I did wrong. I taped it up, hit it with the wrong end of a screwdriver then cut it with a blade. I have a problem with yellow stained tops. When I cut the grip some of the top was exposed. I took a black sharpie and colored it in.

I took it for a ride to get a hoagie. I bought some Spitfire Streetburners. I was riding into 30 MPH winds so I didn't really feel the streets burning underneath me but I love Spitfires nonetheless. I don't really see a reason why anybody should ride anything else or anything less. The hoagie was okay. Nollie backside 180 may be one of the best tricks of our century.

Also frontside pivot on a curb. I can't really think of anything better.

Prom night falls on a Wednesday.
