More to come...Im still sorting them out..

Im Just back from "The Old Man Bowl Jam" @Skatepark of Tampa

The competition consisted of 2 divisions....Masters 30-39 years old and Grand Masters 40-and over...The Skating was insane in both groups.If you've ever skated at the The bowl at S.P.O.T. you'll know that it is really slippy,I mean really really slippy...... so there were alot of wipeouts due to this...I decided not to skate in the comp after taking a few practice runs... Since I am currently recovering from a fractured shoulder I thought it best to sit this one out..Props to Binky Conklin for organizing this bash , he did and awesome job...For 20 bucks we all got the Official OMBJ T-Shirt ,free food and beer for the day and a bunch of prizes for the winners too...Ya can't beat that...
