Love this edit sooooo much.  Can you tell how much I miss skating by how many clips I’ve been posting?

“skate” journal: 303 warehouse posing with TF (Dec 6, 2011)

Posted in Skate Journal on December 8th, 2011 by corpo

I am still not feeling 100%, but Brian invited me to the warehouse for a session with TF.   I was super nervous because I’m already too self conscious as it is and now I can’t even really skate.  I was super hyped to roll with friends though.  It was super crowded when we got there.  Doh.  I hung out with my injury partner in crime Carleigh and the every shy Jack in a corner that had a tiny bank for a pyramid that was under construction.  The ramp was super crowded.   Carleigh did some kickturns and little tailblocks.  She just got her cast off so she isn’t allowed to ollie yet.  Jack did all kinds of goofy tricks.  Kickflip pretzels, etc.  Neil came by and got me to do a flatground shove it.  It had no pop and I wasn’t even really moving, but it felt good.  I did some other little front rocks and stuff on the side of the pyramid.  I felt so awkward on a skateboard.  But we kept dorking around and I felt a little better as opposed to the red curbs session where I kept feeling worse.  So that’s cool.  Eventually I skated the main area a bit by dropping in on the bank to ledge, doing a kickturn and then a little boardslide on the ledge.  That was fun.  I had a couple bails though that felt so weird.  My ankles haven’t moved that way in a long time so it would hurt for a few minutes then feel looser and better.  This whole arthritis thing is so weird.  At the end Brian and I tried some flatground kickflips and got some back to back!  I got two in a row.  They were still mobbed and horrible, but man that felt good.  I also tried some front rocks on the bank to ledge.  It felt fun to try a somewhat real trick, but we had to go before I got it.  I felt like at the end I could kind of feel my skate feet.  I just wish my legs would have some pop in them.  I’m really rambling on here.  Skating hanging with TF felt great.  Bye for now.
