Over last weekend my brother and i were talking about the upcoming season. We are both excited. So excited that i started shopping for my protection gear. You see my brother and many of his friends are all about prevention. Which is fine with me. Using his knee pads last year when he took me out, more then likely saved my knees for lots of pain. Last year he made me wear his helmet, which was 2 sizes too big for me. So this year i found one on REI outlet site and it was for a great price. So i ordered it. I really hope *crosses fingers* it fits right. My bruder even offered to pay for it as my birthday gift yay!. I had expressed my concerns about it being white and blending in too much. My bro just said "well we can paint it". I really love my brother! So all that is left to buy is knee pads and wrist guards. Helmet, wrist guards and knee pads...sounds like a wild night LOL.
This was me Last year
Being a total wuss and not even trying to go down the green run. My brother was very patient with me and even made me wear his helmet and knee pads so i didn't "kill my self", as he put it. This year i want to get better and be more comfortable out there. Maybe one day i'll be able to follow him around with my camera and get some nice action shots.
Come on everybody do the SNOW DANCE *dances around*
