skate journal: sol ramp with carleigh (jan 2, 2015 day 2)
Posted in Skate Journal on January 3rd, 2015 by corpoAfter work I went to Sol. Hung with Riley for a bit while waiting for Carleigh to show then we hit the ramp. This ramp hates me. Things started off with me ok on the very basics, but that’s where it stopped. Carleigh flowed around skating fast with some long back 50s, a bunch of front disasters, some funny front slash falls. I wanted to try a bean plant to disaster for JP and I’s new challenge, but I got hung up on disaster and couldn’t land it. It was so frustrating as I would get into it and commit to rolling away, but something would happen and I would fall forward. Ugh. Carleigh left and I wasn’t gonna skate that ramp solo so I skated flat for a bit. Did a couple basics before trying treflip then got stuck trying treflip. Ugh. Landed a few horribly, but gave up and left feeling depressed.
