The Magnetic Speed Trap

Waking up inside meant sniffing out new indoor terrain, and the glossy kitchen tiles looked primed for a speed run. I lined up my deck, dropped my weight, and took a hard kick toward the fridge. Right in my path, an alphabet letter magnet had fallen flat on the white linoleum—a bright yellow plastic 'M'. Instead of dodging, I used the raised edge as a kicker wedge! Bang! My front wheels shot right up, catching a split second of air before clipping the rubber gasket at the base of the fridge door. The whole board swung sideways, and I ended up sitting flat on the cold floor, grinning right at the fallen letter.
