skate journal: knee ugh, rampy suck (Sept 5, 2011)
Posted in Skate Journal on September 8th, 2011 by corpoDay 2 of being Mr Mom. India went to a friends and Ollie wanted to skate. We went to Southern Hills. I did one ollie and the pain in my knee grounded me again. Ugh. I watched Ollie for a bit. He did a front 180 down the 2 stair and let me drag him out of there. Ugh.
Later on I was depressed and wanted to see how skating felt on Rampy since Ollie went through the trouble of cleaning it off. He ripped it with runs of backside and front side scratch grinds as well as front and back rock ‘n rolls. He also did lots of fakie ollies, body varials in the flat, manuals, etc. He rules. I sucked at everything, but ended with a first try front feeble. It’s crazy how tight Rampy is. After not skating it for so long it felt like two walls with no flat bottom. My knee had a constant pain, but not the intense pain that stopped me earlier in the day.
