Brittle

Above: This is going to end up on some Japanese website soon enough so I might as well post it. Kento Takahashi wallie over handrail in downtown San Francisco. (Click to enlarge)
I got the go ahead from the doctor to start gingerly rolling around again yesterday. I promptly went out and slammed on my wrist. I'm typing this while wearing a wrist guard. Being brittle and old sucks.
You know what else sucks? People waxing coping. I stopped by the Leduc park and almost killed myself when I hit the waxed 1/4 pipe coping yesterday. It reminded me of this quote from an old Born Ugly on the issue of waxing copings.
"Instead of spending $5 for the latest piece of wax technology at the skate shop, or even $1.50 for the box of paraffin at the grocery store, why don't you save all yer money and buy a pair of Z-Rollers on eBay. That way you can still look like an asshole but everyone else can enjoy the ramp."
Seriously, you suck. Go get some rollerblades.
