The world is flat!

Well it's been a while since i last posted, but what can i say, not much has happened. Mainly of note is that i have switched from riding street bmx to flat land. I feel it is more of what I'm looking for, not to mention it takes place on flatland... not stairs and ramps...less pain. But seriously, I'm really into it, i bought a new frame kit to basically mod my Kaizer 1.2 into my brand new *drum roll* Sleipnir 1.0 ,check out the bike check, what a magnificent beast. I put in probably around 6 hours at this point (which is over about a week or so) and am already making progress. I'm working on fork glides, Dork wheelies, and tailwhips*, and i can proudly say i have landed successfully all of those tricks and am well on my way to dialing them in. I think a huge part of this learning curve is getting comfortable on my new whip, it's much smaller: 2 1/2 cm off the stem 1 1/2 in off the top tube and and inch shorter chainstays! The wheel base is shorter and the bars are closer to me, but at the same time i have more internal maneuverability due to the frames gusset and geometry...lets just say it's taking some getting used too.
Really that's all that been going on, walking my dog and riding my bike. I did manage to see 1408 on opening day, i thought it was very good, but I spent most of the time drawing connections to Dantes inferno instead of being afraid....The group of girls behind me screamed a lot though, so that's a good sign, and Samuel Jackson was as good as ever in the few scenes he graced. The movie did have trailers for two movies i am interested in seeing: 30 days of night, and I am Legend. 30 days of night is based off a weird ass comic book about vampires moving to a town in Alaska where night is more prevalent than day...such a sweet setup, i hope they just pump it full of gruesome special effects. I am legend, frankly looked really good ( i am such a fan of post apocalyptic survival horror), stars Will Smith, and also happens to be the title of a white zombie track, so I'm pretty sure I'll see it.
Until something cool happens I'll probably just update the look of my blog and load some new pics or something...we'll see.

*tailwhips in the flatland world are not the same thing as tailwhips in the street world, the flat land ones are much, much easier as you never leave the ground.
