skate journal: more sweating in the garage (feb 2, 2016, day 33)
Posted in Skate Journal on February 3rd, 2016 by corpoWent out to the garage not feeling so motivated about having to skate there again. I mean I guess I could hit a parking garage, but it was only like 10 degrees out. I randomly started doing the rad no comply/boneless tricks that Rob does to get warmed up. Then I decided to try it 180 (above). So fun. I was also doing kickflips to get things going. I got a heelflip in less time then it’s taken in awhile, but of course next up was treflip and it took awhile. I had quite a few random ideas. I struggled with one foot tailgrab for awhile which I couldn’t really do in high school and to no surprise I still can’t. Couldn’t nollie flip. Did some frontside grabs and a pop shove tail grab. Ha. Posed nollie heel, switch frontside flip, switch flip with no success. Finished the night trying kickflip noseslides. Got a couple close ones, but never locked in. One of these days I hope.
