: Seems like all the derby girls take big archs on ramps though? I dont think I ever did, maybe its a derby thing?

Actually, that is a rink thing, or in this case...a derby track thing! Indoor skaters are ingrained with going in oval circles. A hard habit to break.

  Hey Everybody,
Well, it has Begun. Las night we had a light turnout @ the park, Mountain Ridge SK8Park, but it was alot of Fun.
I warn you all now, don't expect daily updates on this, the uploading time is ridiculous & I'm only getting busier. But, I thought I'd give you guys a taste.
Here's some pics......
Irene & I getting ready to sk8:
Irene & Jay @ Stop 1

Irene FS Slide Mini:
Irene Frontside sliding the Mini @ Stop 1

Derby Girl "Agata Chokabitchskie" after dropping in for 1st time on Mini!

Choke Dropped In!!

This is why I do RC, Kids. To expose more people(girls) to ramp/park/pool skating!

Now for some videos....
Here's Poster Girl, PITA on the mini ramp.


Irene Ching rippin the Mini:


Yours Truly, Jay on the Mini:



And, last, but not least, Derby Girl Chokabitchskie dropping in, then going to one knee (she really did make those after less than an hour in park with some expert tutelage!) because camera messes with her head. There is nothing wrong with my camera, the blackout is Las Vegas Parks Department way of saying "No More Skating!". Crazy, huh?


So, after the session, I heard from Tim Altic & grabbed him from airport. So tonight he'll be joining us. Desi Jones & Lee Ettinger are getting slow start outta LA & may miss tonight, but will make tomorrow. SO will Duke Rennie & Karen Rennie. Hoping to hear from Brother Biff today...soon even. And Fred Blood's confirmed for my Area 702 party on Saturday night. So the skating's only getting better...just like the parks......
PEACE..................................Jay

 So rad! Tell Irene she is cooking on the coping, so cool!! And Jay, man I am so jealous as I wish I could slide on the coping like you do. You'll have to explain at another time, I really want to learn!! Tell Pita she does good with fakie. Seems like all the derby girls take big archs on ramps though? I dont think I ever did, maybe its a derby thing? Nice pics/vids! Glad to see a newbie give it a try too. Awesome, keep it coming!!

 I am so jealous and stoked for you all. Have a great time and rip it up.

  Thanks Jay, take your time posting the pics and vids. You are doing a super job so far! It's always great to watch fellow vert skaters doing their thing... good form, everyone.

Those of us not in attendance can understand that you have a lot going on already, so post up when you can. Just make sure to try and get a group shot of each event if you can. Be safe and HAVE FUN!!

 Thanks for posting this! I missed that day. I'm already anticipating this Wednesday at the cove. This has been a fantastic week for me.

Thanks again, Jay.

Biff
