so i went to germany for 2 weeks, and it wasnt amazing or anything like it was last year, and i was looking forward to riding woodward a ton. we left germany, went to philly and stayed in the Murphy's house. nicest house ive ever been in.
then we shopped at King Of Prussia mall. then we went back to the murphys house, and slept and left the next morning for woodward.
the ride to woodward is the second most exciting car ride ever.
(number one is taken by the ride to see kelsea)
we arrived at woodward and they said they aint had my paperwork, i got worried, then walked to the office and had the nice young lady print it out for me. then i was all set.
and then i went to cabin 23A
it was nice, we had a nice counselor named ryan, he won body of the year at camp woodward. haha
and he was really nice
the first week, me and konsi had john saxton as an instructor, and it was terrible, i didnt learn one thing from him at all.
but i learned over to icepick bonks on my own. and inverts that when i did them my peg would hit my hip, or my shoulder. and it hurt.
and not much else i learned in the first week. well controlled airs better and kickouts. they are neato. and i rode a ton with ben hittle, and got smoothies with him upwards of 6 times a day. it was neato. i miss him alot.
he left on saturday :(
i missed kelsea so much
saturday i was riding resi alone, and daniel dhers showed up. if yall aint know who he is, just remember his name. and i was trying tailwhips, and i relearned how to kick them, and i did about 200 of them, and then finally grew up enough to put my right foot on the pedal. daniel watched the first tailwhips i ever landed. then i almost died from heat and exhaustion, and so i went and rode cloud nine mini for a bit with konsi and mat oliver, then we went for smoothies. it was a nice treat(:
then i went back to my cabin and called the girl of my dreams and talked to her and told her about my tailwhips and stuff, and it was neato also.
sunday, new campers came, jake seeley came, greg from canada came, zach sky came. and we all shreded mad times together. me and jake practiced tailwhips together and it was word. one night i was just riding the resi, and i hear a small man behind me say how do you like the frame, with a spanish accent, and i turned around and said i love it, to sergio layos. and we talked about it and how nice a frame it was, and he was really nice. then andy came and said it wastime to go to the cabin, we stayed for five minutes to watch sergio air and ride, then went to the cabin. it was great.
i took my pegs off. to learn things on my pedals and axles. and its working wonderfully. i learned on spines over to toothpick on my fork. and pedal stalls, and i learned downside icebonks on my axle. its neato. then one day jake seeley was like johnnie come to the rock and learn downside whips over the hip, so i rode, and got it fourth try and i was super excited about that. and then i kept doing them a ton over it. and it got filmed a few times, and it was cool to see myself land a trick on video after trying them everyday for a year and a half. then not much else happened there. pat africa was bipolar and had a big mood change everynight, and i prayed about it just about everytime it happened. hes a really nice kid, when you are nice to him.
now im home
kelsea was waiting at my house for me, and hugging her was the best feeling ever
i missed her so much
i love her somuch too
we just had a sleepover the other night, and it was amazing.
we watched monstors inc and at 1:30 in the morning it started pouring, and we looked at each other and said, wanna go kiss in the rain? and we went outside at 1:30 and shared the most romantic cute amazing kiss ever. and it was the best feeling ever holding her in the pouring rain, and just being with her in a condition i wouldnt ever want to be in alone
and i made me super happy.
i love her so much
