skate journal: rainy/snow day sol ramp sucking (Oct 4, 2013)
Posted in Skate Journal on October 7th, 2013 by corpoWent to SOL on the first real cold day of the season so far. I arrived to a “back in 5 minutes sign” so I pushed around a little and ended up in the alley behind 7-11. There was a cool little new plastic ledge east coast spot. The asphalt even sucked, but the plastic felt slick. I tried a few quick ups to front tail, got close, but then sol opened back up and we went in there. Another dude named Jacob I think skated too. I sucked. Straight up sucked. Dave killed it. I suppose I mention that every time I skate with him, but man he really does skate tranny super good. I don’t even know how many millions of tricks he did. Man it’s embarrassing skating with him there. I did a few more of those switch flips while holding onto the ceiling and got a flatground treflip. On the ramp I got to the point where I was trying front smiths, but Dave had to leave for diaper duty so I left too. I should mention that the Jacob dude was nice and fun to skate with.
