Squat, place chin on chest, tuck head and tip forward, shoulders connect with ground and back follows through, legs go over the top and feet land on the ground. That's how I roll!

This world is soooo small....
The other day this guy walks into my workshop, sees my bus sitting in the corner and says "my son has a splitty, he got it from forbes.." and before he could say anything else i blurted out"Ryan...Warb...Forbes Soaring Bus??"
How Freaky is that?
