I’m Board To Death and heavily into speed,
speed, speed; downhill rules because when the surf
sucks and there’s no snow GET ON YOUR SKATEBOARD!
No lift lines, no kooks dropping in, just your spotter
driving close behind you, wind in your face, hauling
ass, slides……….hmmmmm; way past kool.
I’m a full-time promoter of “board” sports; surf, skate and
snowboard. My first skate competition was the 2001 Vans Triple Crown in Oceanside,
where I placed 7th in the Bowl event. In 2002, my first year of “hard-core” skateboarding
competition, I did pretty well, placed top 4 in all my races, with two 1st, two
2nd , three 3rd and two 4th.
In my first two amateur street events, I
placed 7th and 10th. In the first ever Female Basic Pool
event in Huntington Beach, I placed 2nd in the amateur
division. I also placed 5th in the AGSJ surf contest in
Huntington Beach. I ride downhill, vert, pools, ditches,
ramps, bowls, slalom, street, LOVING all disciplines of
skating. Beginners, thinks longer/wider boards with soft
wheels – you’ll be ripping in no time, then
go hard core.
Anyway, this year, I have placed 1st three times and 2nd twice in my downhill
races, after healing from a shattered shoulder suffered last December, while
skating a pool. Broken bones suck! My summer schedule includes the Soul Bowl,
Basic Pool event, All Girl Skate Jam, So. Cal. Outlaw and WLAC races and ends
the year with the Catalina Island races in November. I skate the s$^$%^ out of
the Encinitas YMCA bowl and surf whenever possible!
Life’s short, be board often! |
