skate journal: Black River Falls day 5 (June 17, 2010)
Another hot and humid day in Wisconsin with some wind. Ollie and I arrived at the park after a long morning of badminton and swimming in a cold lake. To our surprise there was finally a couple other people skating. Probably in middle school. They were ok at skating, but had the typical small town attitude towards new people. Oh well. I had thought about how I still wanted to do a b/s flip over the hip and a front bigspin over the hip. I started out dorking around doing a few funny blunt stall reverts over the hip to get used to it. I almost slammed super hard a couple times though. I did the front blunt back 270 out that Fuzz can do on real stuff. That was fun. I ended up getting really close to the front big , but couldn’t land it. I didn’t do much but a bunch of Rampy tricks on the tiny qpipe. At one point I did a rock fakie on the top qpipe and almost died riding down the flat bank fakie. Whew. Ollie didn’t do much new other than a back 180 over the hip which he said he has done a few times. He also did a back 180 out of the mellow bank. Last day in Wisconsin!
