skate journal: school curbing it in cupsoles (april 30, 2018)
First day of being Mr Mom for a week. Went across the street feeling pretty motivating and wanting to try some old cupsoles in hopes that they would help my legs feel better. I was in the mood to jump down the curb. Ha ha. I tried a lot of lines. Grinds, up, down. It was a weird session as something would work once, then not again. I don’t remember the lines very much, but some of the tricks up/down I remember were first try b/s flip up, kickflip up going both backside and frontside, both pop shoves up and down. I did some intentional front 5-0s, fakie 50, front tail jib, an over 80 fakie back tail. Tried a run of back 50 back 180 out followed by fakie front 50 switch front 180 out, but never got the switch front 180 out. Had a really bad heelflip. Some regular manuals. Tried a lot of kick back tails, but didn’t get into any.
