skate journal: cold solo red curbs (dec 22, 2014)
Feeling a bit better yet on an icy/cold night I went to Red Curbs. I started really slow. I mostly skated the non red curb that’s really waxed. Started with 50s both ways and slappy crooks on the red curb. I did some of the best slappy crooks I’ve done. They were really fun and I posted up good on them for once. Then I started trying fakie front 50s with b/s halfcab out. I got really close, but never quite got it. I was grinding far for me which felt cool, but my body kept wanting to go out f/s. At one point I my 3rd or 4th front heel on flat. Going slow, horrible style, whatever. I tried some front nosegrinds for awhile too, but couldn’t get it. Landed on a few treflips, but never rolled away from that evil trick. Started to feel like I was making my cold worse so I left.
