skate journal: tired fun at blue skies (dec 8, 2014)
Feeling pretty tired, but not as arthritic I did my gym break at Blue Skies. I didn’t feel like ollieing too much so I decided to finally skate this little quarterpipe thing. Front lips took a few tries which was bumming me out, but then tricks started flowing pretty easy. Front tail, back 50 fakie, back 5-0 fakie, a few frontside ollies that felt really good. Did some fastish front 50s on the low ledge, still struggled with crooks which I don’t understand as I used to do them good there. Did a really slow front board on the flat bar stoking me out that I can land those to forward now. Now I just need to start going faster. Ended with an ollie off the main ledge (above in photo) and went back to work.
