I used to hear this song on the “Alternative” radio station from Minneapolis back when I lived in Rochester.  I never know who it was at the time, but totally loved the song.  It came on my launch station and I’m hyped.

skate journal: Flatground in the garage (Nov 20)

Posted in Skate Journal on November 21st, 2008 by corpo

It was really cold outside.  I felt like skating, but no one was feeling a Circuit City session.  I skated for awhile before dinner and did a few basic tricks in between hucking switch flips.  It’s been awhile since I’ve really attempted that trick and yes I still hate it, but want to land it.After the kids went to sleep I skated again.  Skating in my garage totally sucks since it’s soooo small.  I eventually started hucking 360 flips and wanted to do at least 5.  I ended up landing 8 of them horribly.  But when you can only take one slow push that’s how it is I guess.  I tried a bunch of nollie flips and came somewhat close.  Skating is fun.  Going to start on the ramp this weekend.  That’ll be more fun, but I’ll miss just skating flatground.
