Just Go For It
Trust your ballsI have to say knowing that you have improved dramatically over the last few months feels good especially since the snow and ice has improved my reaction skills over the winter! But I do have to say the biggest improvement in skills I have seen is my mate Lewis since he has now got his Kona Stinky "Air" I have seen his speed improve and some of his skills and now instead on me saying hurry up its now him!!
But he has got a full suss which makes a huge difference. But also he is learning to trust his balls as he is attempting some stuff he would have not have done before but I have to say at the rate he is going he will be hitting K2 soon HAHA!!
As for now it’s working on the little bits that stop us and working on our speed and other bits and pieces.
So I guess the moral of the blog is
"Trust your balls because there is two of them and one of you!"

If you can do all that then head to Elgin. Man line, steep line and the Sponger drop are there to be done (nobody has done the Sponger drop yet).
