My Weekend at Woodward West!

              My English teacher says I should use my alliterations, so I made my title one. Anywho, As my 14th birthday present, My parents paid for a weekend at Woodward West, so my dad took me this weekend. I've been to several skateparks in the last couple weeks but since I just went to Woodward, I felt it was worth blogging 1st. We got there on saturday at 1:00 pm and they open at 2:00 pm so the 1 hour wait was killing me. Finally we went to Hangar 18, and met up with Katie, our extremely peppy, Woodward weekend guide. I rode around and checked the park out, then headed to the foam pit. I pretty much stayed there most of the day. i did some 360's and heelflip indys, and airwalks. It was fun. Occasionally I would venture to the big street are or the small street, art park, or mini-ramp. Plus a couple times I went to the vert ramp and stood on top of the resi psyching myself out. I learned a really basic trick a backside 50-50 stall which I never had done before on a mini-ramp. I also manualled across the big manny pad in the small street area. I finished the first day on top of the vert ramp and saying I would do it the next day. That will be my next post. It was a really fun first day, with double backflipping bikers, and zack sheckler, and lots of hard work getting out of the foam. The next day was awesome too.
