Must Stop Meeting Like This, We must all stop meeting like this

[Shadow Stalker]

Again i seemed to slip into the inactive bin i apologize i've been busy with recent deaths in the family and with gaining and losing sponorships for skating but i am going to tryand stay active this time. Seems like everything has gone fine which is good if you have any questions just send me a message

Hiya ...now you don't get away with mentioning skating and sponsorship that lightly ...what happened?

And if you're good enough to get one go at sponsorship keep at it I am sure you can get more.

Sorry to hear about your loss. I hope you and your family feel better soon.

Zygo :flame:

Hello Wolfie, It's grand to have you back.
I am very sorry to hear about the sad times your family has been through. It's always hard to lose family members. My thoughts and sympathy to you all, I hope time helps ease the sadness.

I am curious about the sponsorship too. What kind and what happened?

Don't worry about inactivity, of course we miss having you around, but we all understand that real life is more important than anything that happens online and mostly has a way of insisting on coming first. :lol:

Thanks for your sympathy and it wasnt a big sponership it was just local but it was nice i got free stuff not much just a couple boards and shoes. But i lost it when i was skating with some friends in the city and we were just doing some street skating which is were i would just use the streets to skate and grind on benchs curbs etc. well after awhile we start to look for some stair we could ollie off but everytime we would find some we liked security would stop us but then we finally found the perfect spot it was a nice ledge it was about a 10-12 ft. drop with a smooth landing area so i couldnt resist so i went first and ollied off with no problem then i did a kickflip and heelflip so i started to get cocky and my friend told me to try and 360 flip off and i was like ok no problem so i started off like normal got to the ledge and i did everything like normal but when i was coming down for the landing i saw that i didnt get enough rotation for the flip and was going to land on the side and i was right i like on the side and fell foward and severly broke my ankle i had 2 get surgery on it and i found out after i got out of surgery it would be 3 months before i could skate again and my sponser dropped me

[Velvet Darkness]

OMG!
Poor you, that must have hurt so much. Did you have to stay in hospital for a long time?
How are you now? Are you still recovering or is it all better now?

[Shadow Stalker]

Yea it hurt pretty badly and i had to stay in the hospital for about 4 days after the surgery and its been about 6 months since i did it and i am still recovery from it a little bit i and still skate but not as well as i used to be able to i will have relearn most of the foot postions for most of my tricks and have to work my ankle back into things before i can try and get sponsored again but for right now i am back to doing what i love and thats all that matters

[Cobweb]

It's good that it wasn't bad enough to stop you skating altogether, that's how things like that happen, doing something you've done a thousand times before but just getting it slightly off.
Take it easy on that foot, will you have to change your position to allow for the break or will it heal to be the same as it's always been?

[Velvet Darkness]

I'm sorry it was so bad Wolfie.
At least you seem to be recovering well. Why will you have to re-learn your foot positions?

[Shadow Stalker]

Sorry i'm still being so scarce on here but i am trying to keep my grades up in school but i have to relearn my footpostions because after being off my board for soo long and not skating i kinda forgot were i would set my feet up to some tricks so i will have to get refamiliar with it before i will start being able to get them down again but after i get my feet postions back everything should just come back alot more easily because learning where to place ur feet just right on the bored is the hardest part of learning tricks in skating
