spoke too soon

I'm not sure what all those construction guys were doing at the bridge the other day when I went by, but it wasn't destroying or remodling the brdige. I went early in the afternoon to skate, and it was open for business, albeit with a green wire fence all around the outside and big signs saying that we cant' skate after 2200, because only poseurs would skate in a skatepark once taipei's traffic has died down. They've also installed a metal hubba stage, which is brilliant, since anythign that isnt metal tends to rot in a few months. There's also a new tiny manny pad, but its already getting chipped on the ends because they left it bare cement. I saw a few familiar faces adn tried to get back into actually landing tricks, which went better than expected. Although I can't ******** this weird deck very well, ********s are actually much easier, so I'm just going to be a ********er now. The geometry of the deck is shite because the hardware holes were drilled too close to the middle of the deck, so unless I can figure out a solutoin, I'm just going to go without 30% of the normal pop. Maybe not as bad, I got 58mm wheels, which glide over the tiles like a dream, but change everything about manuals in particular. Even so, I **d the manny pad and didn't suffer as much as expected. I even got 2.5 hours out of the session. Days later, my knees hurt. There is still work to be done, and shape to be gotten into. Also, it's 37 degrees, and you can feel the heat reflect up off the ground to about knee height. Winter cant come soon enough
