If it's any reassurance, it's always been fine and I've never had any unpleasant encounters. I do understand though, if you are a nervous flyer you at least want as many of the parts of the flight to be familiar and consistent. I'm sure you'll be fine though, just give yourself plenty of time getting to the airport so you don't have to deal with rushing. Glad to hear that you managed to get in a skate sesh on Saturday... that board isn't going to olly itselfΒ And yes, I've been watching plenty of the Wimbledon coverage, how did you guess .Β I've been cheering on the young Brits who are still in the comp and doing well.Β Best of luck with the flight tomorrow. I hope it goes smoothly and you get the row to yourself!Β Hey wonderful Lennie!! Sorry i havent been online in a while, some major updates, I managed to fly safely! Because we had standby tickets and the flight was so full i was worried thinking I wouldnt get to fly Your wishes came true, I am so lucky thanks to you Lennie, absolute legend!! I was given the first row seat and nobody was next to me which was such a blessing, had the arm rests all to myself :D I made friends with the cabin crew who were so lovely and the flight was really peaceful Only downside was my seat was right next to the toilet so everyone would step on my feet (even though they were under my seat!) And everytime id drift off to sleep, id wake up cos some random person would sit next to me as the waited in the queue for the toilet lmao Thank you for the amazing tips and I am so happy that you have had good experiences flying Hahaha yesss, that board will not do tricks by itself xD Ayeeeee, thats amazing! So glad you are enjoying the matches,Β I had a small hunch you wouldve been watching as you are the biggest tennis fan! i managed to tune in for 5 minutes of a match and omg it was so intense, how do these pros do it?

Good morning @jazzy.skyΒ - so glad to hear that you had a safe flight andΒ a seat free next to you. What a result! I can relate to your pre-flight stress about having a standby ticket because it's easy to get bumped from the flight if it's busy when you're on standby. Once, I had to sit in what's called a 'jump seat' where the cabin crew sit for take-off and landing because the flight was so busy and I had a standby ticket, so it was my only option to board that flight. These seats are fixed bolt upright and the flight was 9 hours... with no tvΒ . It sounds like the flight wasn't all smooth sailing for you either what with the toilet-queue situation, but I'm glad you got to your destination safe and sound. Do you have any fun plans while you're away? And yes, Wimbledon has been great this year and I'm looking forward to the match-ups this week. This summer is packed full of major sporting events. I've just remembered that the Paris Olympics are just over two weeks away. I'm not sure if skateboarding is now part of the Olympics or not? I know BMX is, but is skateboarding now an event? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzy.sky Posted July 18 Author Share Posted July 18 (edited) Skate update!! Today was so epic! Went to the skate park and there was nobody there (yesterday there was another rad skater probably in his mid 20s but he was antisocial so sadly didn't make skate friends) Super sunny and chill vibes, did some up downs to get used to pushing my tail on the ground, getting consistent pop on my ollies now and am getting really good at generating speed by pumping on the ramps I learnt some new tricks today, I can officially do a full 180 frontside kick turns on a ramp now (which I wasn't able to do yesterday) and I can lift my front wheels while rolling on the ramps and slam them back down onto the ramp I had a world of fun today and really got into the skate flow #keepshredding!

It really was the most perfect day for skating - as for the kick turns, it's basically when you roll up to a ramp and turn around 180 degrees on just the back wheels to face the other way (kind of like you do a spin to roll back down the other way instead of rolling fakie - which is basically backwards!)Β Next 2 tricks i would love to learn would be a shuvit and a manual - i managed to do them both only once but ate dirt soon after as my board shot out from underneath How has the tennis been for you Lennie?

We've had a few nice days of sun, so I can't complain, And full respect to your BBQ-ing neighbours - you're so right, that's a very British approach to getting the slightest hint of good weather. You have to make the most of what you have during the British summertimeΒ Glad you've been having a nice time the past few days. The pizza party sounds amazing! You really have been eating well - I'm jealous. I'm less jealous about putting together the Ikea furniture. I'm one of those people that takes forever and is left with a worrying amount of screws and fixings after putting together flat-pack furniture.

Awww thank you again Lennie! My day has been really nice, went swimming in the sea and saw a new fish which was green and red - super cool! And there were anemones and huge fish it was peaceful! My big and little cousins came over just now and I taught my cousin how to skip with my skipping rope which was fun - i cant wait to have skate updates soon - i hope I don't forget all my progress though!Β Hope you are also having a great day today Hi @jazzy.skyΒ - doing well, thanks! And yes, I am always impressed with how people will post up on the beach and have BBQs, even when it's cloudy and windy. I wouldn't do it, but I respect those who do. And thanks for the telepathic pizza - it was deliciousΒ Pride is always a great experience. I understand being hesitant if you don't like large crowds, because the crowds are HUGE. The great thing is, though, that everyone is in a great mood and are really friendly. It's a real carnival atmosphere with a parade, DJs, dancing, and all that good stuff.Β Your time by the seaside sounds like paradise! I'm so glad you're enjoying it. It's amazing being able to see all the fish and marine life around you like that. Did you have a snorkel and goggles?Β Β That's nice you taught your cousin to skip. That's fun to do but surprisingly exhausting! I hope you are having lots of fun and enjoying your day. And I'm sure you'll get right back into it once you get back on your boardΒ Β Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
