I fractured my foot

I’m going to be out for a few weeks. I broke a bone in my foot trying a flip to fakie at the huntington park. It was my first time trying it on the ramp there and I ended up pushing out too much, causing me to do a backflip 8ft to flat. I hopped off the bike when I realized i wasn’t landing it and then just landed awkwardly on my feet.

It wasn’t that bad. I actually did another one right afterwards, before the pain and swelling set in. Then I drove home and went to the hospital.

Here’s the media for the day:

Stripped cranks, blown out tires, rain, puddles, gas prices, and more. Me and Darryl had planned a camp out at greenport, but of course everything went wrong. We got to greenport at 10pm, had a mellow park sesh, and then set up camp at around 2am in the baseball dugout next-door. We planned to wake up super early and ride the park all day the next day. Unfortunately it rained from 7am till 1pm, which killed any chance of riding the skatepark.

Despite all of the setbacks, we made the best of it and still had some fun. Click the photos for descriptions and such.

Riding every day is definitely taking a toll on me. I have to take a few days off, or at least take it easy for a while so I can let my bruises heal. I keep smashing my shins on things and they’re like 2″ bigger in diameter then they’re supposed to be. It sucks.

I haven’t been productive at all lately because of my riding binge. Everyone knows I don’t have a real job so It’s hard to come up with excuses not to go out. Well I’m finally feeling motivated to get back to business again. Maybe i’ll make some posts about how to go about making money on the internet soon. Or maybe not

My Transcend (brand) SD card died the other day after taking a few photo’s, so I lost a bunch of photo’s and photo opportunities. For now I’m stuck using a 128mb card which could only hold about 30 medium quality photo’s. Here’s a few photo’s from the past two days of street riding and hanging out at the trails and Ryan Hoey’s video premier.

Wow, I forgot how good the Long Island scene was. Yesterday’s Greenport jam was so much fun. The turnout wasn’t huge, but all of the really cool locals showed up. Definitely quality over quantity.

So much crazy stuff went down — Everyone’s been getting so good! I was only able to capture a tiny part of the craziness on photo since I was having so much fun riding.

Thanks to Nick for setting up the Jam. I can’t wait for the next one.

Here’s some photo’s, mostly from the hip sesh.
