skate journal: boulder park before work (oct 17, 2018)
After skating so terribly the night before I wanted to get out and redeem myself. No one was at the park when I showed. I dorked in ways I never have at Boulder park before and it was fun. Like little stalls on the mellow bank, manuals across the pyramid, no complys and nollie bigspins. I would dip around carving a little at times too, did some little ollies over the hips. Got the dorky little wallie off the pyramid qp. Didn’t struggle quite as hard with the front 50 across and down. Didn’t get a b/s flip over the weird hip. Then settled in on a line. Front shove to fakie on a tiny bank up top, halfcab flip on flat, front 50 the bump to ledge, 3 flip to fakie the mellow bank. Didn’t get the 3 flip. Left feeling better about skating.

(pain level 1/10 felt pretty great)
