So here are some things from the past couple weeks.
ENJOY :)
You are up until 3am the night before driving 7 hours . you are exhausted. you and the 5 other people with you are sleeping at a friends place (i am that friend )
he gives you a couch , futon , air mattress , and one person takes floor. everyone gets in sleeping bags, and not a single sound before a snore. the room is extremely quiet.
Although you are sleeping you don't realize the sun is just eating its cereal and waking up . its 6am . beep beep - beep beep - beep beep . thats when Yann wakes up .
i must warn you here. the story is different from here on out . only because i took out all the swear words. i think we can agree before 8am being woken up unexpectedly sometimes brings new vocabulary out
… Who's cell phone is that , who sets if for 6 am on a saturday im going to kill whoever phone that is , i swear im going to smash it .
he was yelling pretty loud woke up everyone sleeping , probably the neighbours below us and starts moving bags, and searching around the apartment for this phone.
after making a giant ruckus and stomping around the apartment . finally he used his echo location (more yelling) and found the cell phone.
it was really good he knew how to stop the alarm rather than smashing the cell phone. especially because it was his phone the entire time .
good times .
I enjoyed some time with my grandparents cousin and uncle. we had a beer and then I was off to mee the ontario crew for a race. not the downhill longboarding kind though. this was go karting at its best.
The cars were the fastest i have ever seen . like. nerve crushingly fast. its indoor and the floors are waxed like a serene lake . yea it was slippery . pretty fun so for not much money i jumped into a cart and did the last race with four of they guys. wow what a time. i don't think we stopped smiling for a second all laughing and smashing like it was bumper cars. taking great passing lines and sometimes just swerving around to block everyone else cause it was hilarious. the guy waves the flag "FINAL LAP FINAL LAP . " conveniently all five of us are together and gun it around the first few corners . 2 - 3 cars wide in some of the corners , then we come into the first to hairpins . all of us with our own strategy. braden taking inside jakoop with the middle line and me with the outside waiting for them to crash so i can take the inside of the next corner. and thats when all three of our karts connected together, none of us can turn at all now, and SMASH thats the wall . at this point we are laughing historically. noone can believe this happened we all had it planned so well in our heads yet anything can happen. and cause we hit the wall and were all stuck , go karts have no reverse so we had to have the staff come and untangle the karts and stuff . so funny . as we are untangled noone takes off on the gas we all waited. as soon as the last kart is free 123 GO we take off and finish the lap bumping , fish tailing and flooring it all around the track.
this made me really stoked to get in on this so thank you ontario crew for an awesome weekend with some great experiences, encore
Having my grandparents was great we spent some time going around montreal checking out where my grandfather grew up for a while and it was quite interesting to see the places and hear the prices on these buildings now compared to the small amount it cost originally. we were lucky enough to have the owner of one house there to tell us about how the house is now and what its worth , and at the second building it was rather amazing to see the real estate lady standing there to give us lots of information and chat about the building now . no timing could have been better.
I also took my grand parents to a look out on the mountain that they had never seen before. i was completely excited to show them the beautiful night view across the downtown and south of montreal, you can see the towns and districts on the south shore from there quite amazing . huge view
The sunday that just passed i took a road trip with niko who rides for kebbek longboards and Ludo who rides for Rotule longboards.. we went to vermont. chatting and laughing the whole way there and back . the skating was phenomenal i don't care what anyone says. the east coast riding is really rad if you know where the hills are . we decided to ride a mountain pass that has two sides one is 4.2 km and the other is 5km hair pins and fun corners all kinds of great terrain and only a few cars all day. fantastic. :) it was really great riding with ludo and niko here. we went to five different runs one of which was at a camp ground where the guy said we could skate in the park as long as we all payed 3 dollars. how could we say no ? sooo awesome . soooo fun . thanks to will for showing us some fun stuff in your area :)
