    When I moved to Japan, and often had to stand on the train with no hand hold, I quickly learned how to lower my center of gravity and balance on two feet against random tilting and turns at high speed.

      Haha. When I first moved to a city, I’d never been on a train before and it was hard. But then I just engaged my surfing muscle memory and suddenly it was very easy. Because I was on a train every day, I always stood hands-free because it felt like good training while I was away from the ocean. Was a fun game.
