With all of this work that's been going on, I found myself a little time to play yesterday, and I did a four point Angel Suspension!!!!!!!!!!!



fact: i fucking love suspension.
yes, it's one of those things I can't explain how amazing it is to someone who hasn't done it or has no desire to do so. the fresh flesh, the tension, cold metal, weightlessness, euphoria, spinning in circles, functioning in an alternate dimension. . feel free to ask questions, I get them all of the time, I know you guys have them!

summer has been treating me well, i got this rad bicycle from resident short north tattoo artist Dennis Boseman!!!!

I got to take the new guy out a few times so far, and i love the holy crap out of it!!!!!
other than that i've been busy with work
