There is a place where everyone likes to go to release or vent his or her worries and troubles. A place to go that is purely unique. Without this special place, some people might not make it through the week or day. I consider myself one of those people. The Place that I find so special and can make most of my everyday worries vanish is The Flow Skate Park in Columbus, Ohio.
One might say, “Oh I go there too. Or Yea I’ve been to that place, its awesome.” There is no way it’s the same for them as it is for me. The park steals about two and half-hours of driving and ten dollars in gas every time I make the trip (which is usually about 4 times a week). In that hour and 15 minutes each way, I do a lot of brain work in the car figuring out new tricks to try when I get there or simply trying to figure out myself and life in general. Its more than just an hour in the car listening to the deafening screeches of heavy metal getting myself pumped up for the riding ahead of me.
The voyage there is pretty simple, just some back roads from my house and three highways after that. Every time I approach the exit ramp for the road that the Flow is on, I start to feel it. It’s a feeling like when you are buying a new car or walking into Disney
. . .
It’s usually at 12:00pm so I have to have the music cranked loud enough for all of Columbus to hear me. After I land that I am heading towards another ramp even faster now. As I approach the first ramp, everything is focused right ahead of me. As I start to walk through the front door, I feel like I am about to go on stage. So after I eat my dinner I check my mail and head off to bed to get ready to repeat the next day. It is a custom Cti2 brace just for my leg. I do the rest of my thinking and pull into the garage, then go into the house for a late night feast. With all that riding you can work up the appetite of an elephant. I stand up take a deep breath and stretch a little, then put my helmet on.
After all of the riding is done, I usually go sit VIP in the office with the owners and friends. I’m going almost twice the speed that anyone goes all night. I am almost completely upside down now.
