For anyone that's seen a snowboard competition, ridden themselves or thinks they are a bit cool, they will know what a shifty is. Forever will I remember the stereotypical Scandinavian commentator at Sälen last Easter....every trick seemed to contain a 'shifty shifty'....despite not being present at all (another classic comment was 'here comes ladies man').
I picked something else (from youtube of course) that reminded me of some riding I did in Sunday River (out of uniform!!), involving 'bonking': no it has absolutely nothing to do with sex, dyslexic spelling of 'banking' or anything else. It was indeed 'tree bonking' (God that sounds even worse) that involved riding close to trees, whenever noticing a little stump or a ridable branch tapping the nose/tail of the board to 'bonk' it. Although here, the trick is somewhat harder, because they throw in a 360 too....so I've got to improve my 360 bonking.....haha, Christ this could be a bad porno.
Anyways have a gaze at these......
While I remember, Johanna at the Alter Bridge concert said something very funny- it might be a 'you had to be there' moment but upon seeing the lead singer come onstage, in a kind of kiddies English accent, comes out with 'he looks like Jesus'......Yes he has long hair.....erm, that was about it....well I laughed anyway.
