battle of the week



the classic camp battle is the highly anticipated skater vs gymnast dodgeball showdown. as in most battles, they are won or lost on the3 degree to which one underestimates his/her enemy.

in the case of the skaters . . . . they forget that these girls have spent half their waking lives working out their upper bodies and body coordination. they have arms like cannons, and they do not throw like girls. surprise !!

the gymnasts, on the other hand have an undeappreciation of the inherant anarchy ( read; willingness to cheat ) within the very definition of skateboarding.

mayhem ensues.


in the event they get over - payback for the skaters comes friday AM, when the even MORE highly anticipated "Skater's Rules" match takes place between the skate staff ( who have put up with these rambunctious punks all week , and the skater-campers. the skater staff have a decade of that aforementioned prepensity to anarchy on the campers . . . . . . . . . . . guess who takes the beatdown ??

anyway, 40 miles or so of pristine aspahlt, and free hot breakfast waiting for me when i got done at dawn. nice.
