Picked up Carleigh around noon and we looked for a dry spot to skate. Sure we could have skated Red Curbs or Rampy, but the sun was nice and warm and we wanted to skate outside. We ended up at the Mikes Camera manny pad where we skated for almost a couple hours and didn’t land much of anything. When I first started ollieing up the curb seemed hard. It took me at least 10 tries to get a manual. A tries less to get a nose manual. Carleigh got about 100 manual scrapes, but no clean ones. She got a front 180 up. I think I did a nose manny front 180 out. Tried a few nose manny big spins out, but never got close. Did a line with sw front 180 up the curb, kickflip on flat then ollie a tiny gap. I’m trying to lift my feet up when I ollie. It’s not going so well. I tried a bunch of sw 180 mannies, but never got one. I did a slow front shove off the curb and a few flip tricks. Even though it was a mellow session and not much was landed we had fun trying tricks again and being out in the sun.
