skate journal: rampy with carleigh and jack (jan 9, 2015 day 9)
Another cold and snowy night. Jack and Carleigh came over after I had napped and slacked for awhile. Jack hasn’t skated in months due to injuries, so it was super exciting to see him on his board again. The session was awesome. Carleigh took longer then two tries to get back disaster this session, but got a few of them, some even out of back 50 instead of the tail stall rock fakie setup. She also did a bunch of back smiths, front 50, front disasters, feebs fakie. Jack looked a bit rusty at the start, but as soon as the one foot to front pivot went down it was clear he had it back. He did a ton of tricks. Bigspin pivot, f/s beanplant finger flip to tail, learned sweepers, back smith grinds, many more tricks I’m not remembering right now. I skated alright for me. Did one of the better front feebles I’ve done, couldn’t get a beanplant fingerflip like Jack had done, got a hurricane quickly, fakie hurricane, front tail first try (that one has been a struggle lately unfortunately). After skating we watched The Storm and 7 Year Glitch. Awesome.
