skate journal: short parking block transfer session (12/1/2010)
Tired and feeling sick I had to run some errands which brought me to Mikes Camera. After bumming them out by staying at least 3 minutes past their closing time of 7pm I went across the street to a parking block that kinda sucked. It had a sign in the way, wasn’t lit too well, wasn’t slick and otherwise perfect. I started trying front boardslid to front 270 transfer out. It sounds cool sure, but really I was sliding for about an inch, leaning on the nose and pivoting about 90 out before tic tacking my way to 270. I got one pretty quick, but it was horrible. I then proceeded to slam a lot. This is because I was wearing my black khakis. For whatever reason I have nick named them my painful pants and never remember to not skate in them. I ended up getting a better one then called it a night.
