Another day where I got home tired from work and had to make dinner and do some cleaning. So my skating was limited to flat or school. I chose flat in front of the house as rain was threatening. I wore the Swifts again, but with the stock insoles this time. It felt okay at first, but after awhile I was hating it. I wanted to do 10 tricks I was happy with. Quite a few of them like both halfcab flips and heelflips sound great on paper, but were anything but in reality. The f/s halfcab heel was after a fakie flip though so that felt cool. I got an absolutely terrible treflip. I couldn’t nollie tre or nollie varial flip. Got pretty close to nollie flip. The shoes were weirded me out after awhile and I definitely came close to an ankle roll. I finished with a very slow fakie varial flip and called it a night.

(setup 8.38 null monico deck, venture black icon 5.8 trucks, bones medium bushings, 51mm bones stf v1 wheels, 3 washers outside each axle, es swift 1.5 grey size 11.5 with stock insoles)
