skate journal: quick cruise on the bike path (may 26, 2017)

Posted in Skate Journal on May 27th, 2017 by corpo

trying to get more on the pattern of skating at least a little every day. I pushed/walked up the bike path. Tried nose stall to fakie on the flower pot ledge at the park which actually took a few tries. In fact I almost had some bad slams. It was annoying. Then I pushed down the hill and it was fun. Ollied some manholes on the road back and that was that.

skate journal: 360 flips in the garage (may 25, 2017)

On a rainy night I went into the garage to mess around. I did a few manuals then some ollies and a kickflip or two. Then I grabbed the putter and went at it with 360 flips for awhile. Maybe 30 minutes. It took awhile before I committed. I was wearing some old Lakai vulcs wanting extra board feel and I was on the putter. I ended up landing like 10 with my hands down before finally getting this “clean” one. I don’t care, it felt awesome and was the first one in a few months.
