slope runs/oh crap there's a baby in my way maybe i should eat the concrete

[darfgarf]

arg, jj pompey meet today, alt hasn't posted these here so here they are, slope is the edge of the pyramids building, about 60 degrees or so i think

it was all going well:



until the woman with the pram moved in the way after i started:


luckily the worst injury was the scrape on my knee, maybe the wristguard that ripped itself apart in the process...why can't mothers move out the way when there's nutters on stilts running across the side of buildings

[masterking09]

dam, im happy that u didnt run into the poor baby. but wat was the women thinking to be going right there wen u clearly tell where u r going.  even people without babies stay away from wen im bocking, i would think people would be more careful wen they have their baby with them.

[darfgarf]

yeah glad i missed it aswell, it being in a public place of course, a busy one where we could easily get banned from, but i spose i'm now on a level with q almost kicking a granny in the face or something XD

[masterking09]

haha yea, except i think running into a little baby is worst then kicking a granny in the face, both suck of course, but the baby is worse.  the poor little baby still has its whole life to live, while the old granny is going to die sooner or later anyway

[darfgarf]

XD such a nice way to put it and yeahgotta consider strange people that walk in with a pram and stop right where you're about to do something to watch, spose she got the best view of my bail though...or maybe the floor did, is a nice screenshot on the first ones preview

[Dark Knight]

Couple of things.
You should alway check the coast was clear some people do know how fast/far we move ?
Why did she have to walk right passed you ? You where filming and she looked like she was going to walk in front of you. Did she just walk off afterwards ?

I've nearlly back up and stood on a small dog once 
No it wasn't a puddle but nearlly was 

[darfgarf]

checked there was enough room, and a few of us gathered round to watch,. so pretty obvious i was about to do something

she gave no warning of approach or noticeshe was there, stopped dead still for some reason, after we both said sorry she just dissappeared in the timeit took me to groan and check for injuries, so pretty quickly

...also almost stood on someones pint sized dog, luckily had someone to hold onto so i could keep my feet still

...sure you mean poodle notpuddle, though stepping onpuddles is also bad


...knees still pumping blood from the open graze

[Kiola]

That slope looks so cool!! we have one but its Very Mini compared LOL

[Sprog]

...sure you mean poodle notpuddle, though stepping on puddles is also bad

He means both, we call all the poodles at work "puddles"

[darfgarf]

it is, it's made of thin bricks, so there's just enough grip to stand on it if you're careful, and not q ^^

...will keep an eye out for steeper ones as that is bloody fun, well kinda literally bloody fun XD
...need to work on it though, i look so clumsy on it instead of it being one swift motion like i've got most of my tricks down to

[lidor1980]

Forgive me Darfgarf but... LLLLOOOLLLL

[Hannesofangels]

lol, ouch

but still its better that you fell, god knows what women can do if touched *cough*

"puddle" sounds like an attempt at punniness.  Don't wanna make a poodle puddle.

As for the dumb behavior of the woman with the baby, you know how you don't want to approach a mother fox?  Humans are more civilized, but some women seem to think they have the right-of-way of a king when they're pushing that baby in a cart.  I've gotten dirty looks when I don't get out of the way and they rarely if ever make room for me when I'm biking down a path, usually forcing me off of it.
Also, never forget that some people will intentionally hurt themselves to start a lucrative lawsuit.

EDIT: I suppose she could have just had a blond moment and thought "oh neat, what are those things?" and stopped to look, oblivious of where you were about to go.

she wasn't blonde, so i don't believe that one, but yeah she could've strung my up by my balls if i had actually done some harm, so eating concrete was the est thing to do i think...even though my knee still hasn't dried up this morning, and whats worse is it' got fluff from the bed sheets in it,spose tat'll help it dry up though i hope

[Tigger08]

  it' got fluff from the bed sheets in it,spose tat'll help it dry up though i hope

yeah that's basically a bandage.
what an idiot. (the woman that is) maybe it's an accidental child that she just doesn't love..? like the trick though. nice terrain for it. i think if you got up some more speed you could get higher up the slope.
