skate journal: short and sweet ‘manny pad’ session in the garage (nov 26, 2015 day 316)
Posted in Skate Journal on November 27th, 2015 by corpoWent out to the garage shortly before Thanksgiving dinner on a cold and snowy day. I just grabbed the 8.38 setup that’s in there and started doing the ol’ manual routing on the sheet of wood. It’s a great thing to do on ‘off’ days because I don’t actually ollie ever, I just lift up into nose manual or bonk up into manual. I did most of the ones I’ve learned and then a couple new ones. I got a frontside 180 fakie manual to f/s halfcab out. I felt as cool as Bernie, except that I didn’t ollie in, I just turned off the nose. Then I did it to f/s cab out and it felt even radder. Then I put the manny pad the long way and did a few switch nose manuals, switch manual 180 out (new one) and the f/s 180 fakie manual f/s cab out. Fun!
