A very fun day. Very powered, lots of ramps, sweet vulcanatoriam. I tried probably 30 "vulcans". One time I actually felt like something other than a jump jibe was going on. I need to recreate that feeling a thousand more times. Brian's advice of not hopping too much really helped. I would push twice and then let it rip. Most of the time my board turned 2 degrees. Perfect shove-it set up, but the 4.2 doesn't have a hole in it so I held back. It was fun to come blasting on the back of the little waves the island was causing into vulcanatoriam. I really missed my vulcan inspiration (B) and my "vulcan" buddy (M). If they had been there I probably would have landed one hahaha. |
