Dethklok is my favourite riding music now. The most remarkable thing happened to me last weekend. I did 90 Cones Straight Tight Neat. My time was not the best but at least I am not a burden to Cone Heads of Saint Louis Slalom 2011. I dont want to make a mess, just go and skate a while. 

To get through this kind of race course you have to have a fast song in your head. Mine was Dethklok. Turn that on in your head and follow the rhythm of the beat. Make the feet follow the arms. Stay low, balance on back truck. That was a personal best skateboard riding for me. I've never really ridden a course like that. and certainly not practiced much lately. Its such a relief to have attained my goals of flying to a race, made the course, did not fall, did not make a mess, be nice and say Thank You. 

For that I got 2nd place in Womens' division and $100.00 USD. This was the first time I won cash and did not take any prizes. Slalom St. Louis was a great race and I am so glad I went.
