The good sirs at Wiskate.com just posted up a montage of winter skating, and my oh my, it’s almost as good of a wintry treat as ginger snaps in front of a warm hearth. For the record, I’ve never done that… but I just thought about it, and it sounds really nice.

Anyway, watch it on their site, since they’re all web 1.0 and shit and don’t let you embed their videos.

Those skateboarders out there that have to endure long months of miserable weather, year after year, know that it really comes down to making the most of what you have. For one thing, all of your set ups are going to turn to total shit, and you’re going to have to just accept that. Then, I mean, who doesn’t like a chunk of rock salt embedded in a fresh wound? It’s invigorating to the senses. I could go on, but I feel like that might veer a little whiny.

Look, at least the skate park is usually empty — and if you’re lucky, somebody’s already shoveled a path to the quarter pipe.
