I'm going to brag about my other half today, just a little bit. So here's a quick back story. Jon Janzen skateboards and he enjoys it very much. When we first started dating he had asked me if the two of us would ever be able to skate together (he knew I had a skateboard in high school and that I knew the fundamentals). My answer to him was "Don't hold your breath. That's not going to happen". Fast forward to present day. Jon was making himself some cruiser boards and I really wanted him to make me a board. Maybe it was the surfer, laid back lifestyle I am longing for but whatever the case is I really wanted a longboard. Jon being the great boyfriend he is, hand made me a longboard from scratch. Next was getting a graphic on it. I wanted orca whales because they are one of my favourite animals, and he gave me orca whales! Just a side note: Jon is a Graphic Designer and the work you see on my board is completely original.
So up at the top is me documenting my second ride on my board. I loooove it. Yes, "loooove" it. I didn't think I would remember how to even balance on a board but I'm doing mighty fine. I'm comfortable enough to take a picture while cruising, so that says something right? We took a pretty long ride around the back roads of Ladner and I was able to keep up. I'm sure Jon had to slow down a little bit for me but I think we were both surprised that I was doing so well!
Ladies, if your man doesn't make you anything (it really doesn't have to be a longboard) then you are missing out! Maybe I'm just lucky that I got this guy that likes to make things with his hands and is super duper creative and maybe I am totally embarrassing him right now.
Like I mentioned earlier, Jon is a Graphic Designer. He does some pretty great work, so check him out on his webiste, Jon Janzen.
