today I landed a few grinds and did a rolling hop curb to curb gap of
about 2 metres. I also did a roll in ramp at a skatepark which was
pretty scary. It was a good day.

It sounds like it was fun.
I would have tried to make it there but after the halloween party on
friday night I didn't really feel like doing much.
