Report from the skate session

(Johan) Damn it was fun! Me, Rob, Flatback and Camping went on a small skateboard road trip. We drove to Aspås, since we wanted to see if the rumour was true. It was! There really was a vert there! The down side was that it was wet, so the skating was kinda sketchy, but fun. I slammed and hurt my shoulder though, hope it´s alright tomorrow, since we´re gonna surf.

Be back with pictures, my bad ass photographer buddy took some with his 60K camera, and he has to reformat the pictures before he mails them to me.

After Aspås we went to a new mini ramp at Ica Kvantum. It was really good fun, especially since flatback hadn´t skated ramp in like 10 years, and SLAMMED hard when he dropped in. (hehehe, there´s no doubt there´s a special thing about watching a 200 cm/105 kg guy in baggy pants slamming the flat in a ramp that is barely 1.5 meters high..)

(Ratman) Anyway, tomorrow there´s gonna be surf, and it´s gonna be BIIIIIG. We are expecting a four metre swell and it's gonna be on for young and old..(old being RATMAN.hahaha) .We haven´t had such a solid forecast since last autumn..We're gonna meet up with Frexi. Then there'll be three in the line-up..bloody crowds..We'll have to drop in on each other just to make it feel like a normal surf!! hahaha..Have to surf shitpoles tomorrow. It will be CRANKIN'..Barrels for sure..

Jay can't come yet 'cause he's STILL waiting for the missus to give birth!!! It's 14 days overdue now and he's gonna miss the biggest day this year..poor Jay..such is life..there'll be more..

Well..we'll report after the BIIIIIG DAY tomorrow with pics and the juicy details..Peace from the Midnight Runners..

You know the old saying "u gotta live hard to die hard", haha, damn that was a poky line, ma´ bad.
Anyway, you can´t miss out a new ramp, even though it´s a 4 metre swell, fo´schoooe.
That shoulder crash was pretty clean altough flatback´s nosebone (drop in to 180 to half a flip to da nosebone in the flat) was the best.
Gotta go back to nr 2 now :)
