My Best Combo Ever!

Yesterday during my session I was filming for Trick of the Month. I deciede to do some other tricks. It was pretty cool because I usually don't land tricks but just keep going through the motions. I got many tricks in that day and I was Done!!! Did my introduction for trick of the month but there was a trick still haunting me. I knew I could pull it I just had not done it thus far. It was my very last attempt and I pulled it! Hang5-Steam-Hitchhicker-Steam-Out! This marks the day that I did combo in and out for my hitchhiker....Ooooo it feels so goood! Progression for the past several months felt more like regression. I just never gave up!
