T-day minus one sk8 session

The weather was so wonderful all week, I decided I had to ask for Wednesday afternoon off so I could skate LCRSP one more time before they close for 2 weeks to install lights. I had a great time. After 18 months, I finally found my line around the tight little bowl. It doesn't look like much, but it sure feels nice to be able to go forever in a figure eight! I'm not really sure what I'm going differently. I guess finally pumping the transitions at the right time.

I also made it back up out of the full pipe a couple of times using a different line than before. Next on the list is carving over the steps in the travel-lodge pool. I'm afraid to drop in so that might be a stretch. Real pool coping and quick transitions push my limits. Some practice at Roosevelt sounds like a good plan of attack.
