Spring time in the Rockies means one extreme in weather to the next.  Sunny and almost 70 one day, 15″ of snow the next.  I skated Rampy with a vengeance for awhile after working at home.  I started off skating well and did most of my tricks first try and linked some decent runs.  I’ve done fakie front pivot to rock ‘n roll before, but it was on accident.  I did one intentionally first try.  Cool.  For some reason I got the idea to try f/s halfcab rock fakie having never tried that trick before.  It seemed to make sense since I do so many fakie pivot tricks.  It took me awhile to get into them consistently and when I went to commit the first time I slammed in such a bad and awkward way that I thought I was gonna break my hip or leg for sure.  It freaked me out.  I tried to skate a bit more, but basically just called it a day.
