skate journal: another quick solo Rampy session (Jan 9, 2010)

Saturday morning.  Normally this means play with the kids for a bit and then skate all day.  But today was the Nation Western Stock Show with India and a couple of the other girls in her 4H club.  So I went out and hit Rampy for 15 minutes before we left and while the coffee jitters were still in effect.  Warmup tricks went down pretty quick and I did a few flatground kickflips and frontside flips.  For some reason I started posing what I think are called sugarcanes.  Fronside ollie past disaster into a fakie back smith.  I didn’t get close, but it felt possible someday.  Then I settled on trying front tails and almost died on a set up pivot and had to get going.  Hoot!
