skate journal: early morning noseblunts, zuni park fun, westy ledge and safeway ledge (june 19, 2016 day 171)
Got up at 5am since it was supposed to be 100 degrees and I wanted to try noseblunts without anyone around. Got to the Zuni park by 7am and after doing some basic qp tricks I laid into the noseblunt battle. It took about 30 minutes before I got one. The key being I got one! It felt pretty rad even though I clearly wasn’t posted up as proper as one can be. I expect nothing less from me. Ha. I was doing flat ground tricks for the most part between tries.
Then I skated the park for awhile and ended up having one of the most fun lines I’ve done in awhile. 360 flip on flat, back tail transfer a hip (far right background), came around and front tail transfer the main hip then got lucky with a kickfilp flyout. I ended by doing a bad kickflip on the main bank.
Went to Westy park to maybe try a front crook on the bottom ledge, but it didn’t work out. I got into a few, but never landed one. Got a few other basics before moving on to Safeway ledge where I tried front crooks or kick back 50 shove out for quite awhile in a motivated sweaty awesome little session. Got both to close. Landed a good kick back 5-0 on accident. Did a few more flippers. Then I went home and slept and slept.
