 .........since RollerCon and The Cove.
I'm going skating tonight!!! :)

My ankle doesn't seem to be getting any worse, and it has improved just a bit. I figure if I'm careful, then skating will strengthen the area. If not, then I'll just have to keep on resting it. Wish me luck!!

I also think I'll go out and buy some kind of sports ankle support wrap. If anyone recommends one, let me know.

  Hey Biff,
Hope the ankle AND the session go smoothly tonight for you.
As to ankle support there're LOTS of good ones. Only advice: if it's comfortable it probably isn't working.
PEACE.................Jay

P.S......Document AND share session with us, please!

 I'll try. I'm thinking of also taking a kicker ramp that I bought for trying to do some new lines and to innovate existing ideas.

I'll make sure to have Raven take his camera.

 Hey Biff, I was at a park on sunday and there were some inline dudes killing it. I took a bunch of pics and a little video, which I will put together in a few days. These dudes killed it, but I get where they came up with the name fruitbooter. These dudes were wearing the tight pants and boxers hanging out and had pink on their skates. Oh, and one guy was busting some crazy shit and not wearing any pads. They must have thought I was a dinasour. lol

 I look forward to your video!

I had a great time last night, and there were also about 20 bladers killing the park as well. They tend to stay on the street course while I tend to stay in the bowl.

I also got some footage and I'll try to put it together today or tomorrow. I'll add in the very few clips that my son took during RollerCon.

I wish I had my big fall on film! I went from the splits into a drop in from about 10 feet up. My trailing skate must have caught on the pool coping. Next thing I knew, I was falling backwards into the bowl! I just went limp and let my shoulder and back muscles take the impact. It almost knocked my breath away. But, it was a good fall.....I got up and skated away....sore today, I'll tell you!
