After skating 4 hours the night before on top of skating 50 days in a row my body was understandably sore. I knew I would haven’t much pop and didn’t feel like bailing tricks I should be able to land. After a few 180s, kickflilps and a few other basics I settled in on some very rare flippers. b/s halfcab heel, f/s halfcab heel, varial heel, nollie flip, switch flip, nollie 360 flip, 360 flip (yes I suck so bad at this trick I now categorize it as a rare trick) I landed on all of those, but never rode away from any. Well, I guess there was a couple nollie tres that could maybe count on over 80 defense and a varial heel that I landed on too. As depressing as this sounds I still had fun. Hucking tricks I can’t land is somehow fun to me. I do wish 360 flips weren’t such a struggle though. Oh yeah, I started a new pair of NB+ Stratfords. Only two left in the stockpile!
