Twice in one day?!
Sep. 19th, 2011 11:13 pmYES. It hasn't happened in many moons, but I do this now because of league scrimmage tonight. I was brain-dead for much of the day, and almost considered not going, but I did. So on one of my first turns jamming, the other jammer had already gotten out, but I wanted to catch up, so I went up to squeeze through on the inside line.
Another skater started to close the gap, and then BAM. I totally jumped the apex and got past her.
And then I got knocked around a lot in the next couple of jams, and stupidly forgot that I had lead jammer the first time I did get it, but, still. JUMPED. THE. APEX. There were team skaters watching and everything. I didn't even know I could DO that.
Does this mean I get my Superheroes' Club membership card now? :D
EDIT: if you want to know what jumping the apex means, here's a more-awesome-than-mine demonstration.
