I Knew You Were Going To Say That But It Really Hurts

Oh man, oh man. We did some serious midnight sledding last night. It was The Ugly Kid, SM7, Whitey and her boyfriend and Mr B and Hudsy Buttons. After a failed attempt at taking the trails in the woods we headed over to one of the closer big hills in town. There were a couple other kids there taking the steep part of the hill with reckless abandon. We however, had dog power so we didnt need the steepness to gain great speed. Also there was a little ramp on the shorter end. When we got there the jump was probably about 2 feet tall. Boyfriend and I started hitting it a couple times before Ugly got there. The 2 of us probably knocked about 6 inches or so off the top. Then Ugly showed up with his frickin huge sled. Everyone but SM7 was hitting the jump by this point and we knocked another 6 inches off it. The evening was winding down so it was decided that the 4 of us jumping it up would get on the toboggan together and hit the jump. We went down and hit it nice, every one was hurting. It was decided that we needed to do it 1 more time. So, weighing in at over 640 pounds, we do it again. This time we destroyed it. All of it. We cut right through the jump, leaving it with a 2 foot wide gap down its center. We broke the sled. Our bodies still hurt. It was glorious.
