skate journal: some flat ground to get the legs going for portland (sept 10, 2014)
Posted in New Wheels, Skate Journal on September 11th, 2014 by corpoOn the way home from a long day of work where I got up super early I wanted to skate flat for a bit to get the legs into skate mode. I drove by Valmont and the whole east side of the parking lot was vacant so I went there. I started really slow, but ended up getting through most of my basics quickly. Struggled a bit with fakie flips and am considering giving up on treflips. Managed some heelflips which has been rare lately and even a really bad f/s halfcab heel. The treflip sucking had me bumming, but other then that I did ok so I should chill out. Oh and I had some new wheels because Nate insists the ground is bad in Portland and that I would need some. I went with the big ol’ Null superthanes in 52.
