skate journal: flatground friday lunch break at dog park with eric and rob (nov 9, 2018)
Got out to dog park on a cool friday. Rob and I got there around the same time. Warming up didn’t go so well for me. At one point I shot my board out because I missed a kickflip. I was really angry. But it came together kind of. I know Rob had a long line. I forget all of the tricks, but like 6 of them in a row. We started a game of SKATE and had missed kickflip and heelflip when Eric showed. So we kind of started over but were all going for heelflips. It took surprisingly long for us. Rob got his first then Eric and I both got ours too. Pretty cool it worked out like that. The game kind of dissolved for awhile, but Rob and I kept at it. Rob got a fakie flip which I normally give him a letter on. We did f/s cabs. He got me with fakie 3 shove. At times we had all tried halfcab heels. Eric was getting really close. He also got a fakie heel then heel line. I got a first try fs halfcab heel. At the end I tried fakie bigflip and treflip until I got one. I got a sloppy tre and we was out.
