skate journal: cold flatground friday before work (dec 14, 2018)
Posted in Skate Journal on December 15th, 2018 by corpoI wanted to skate later during lunch, but I knew the work day would be too crazy. So I went to the dog park on a cold morning that felt even colder than I thought it would. It took me a really long time to do the warm up line of kickflip, no comply 180 then fakie flip. In fact I gave up on it and came back to a first try fakie flip after also getting a first try halfcab flip. I didn’t land anything else for quite awhile. I setup a couple bricks as something to ollie over. I made a T out of them and it felt pretty tall for how early and cold it was. I had an ollie over it followed by a 2nd try sketchy treflip which stoked me out. Couldn’t get nollie tre, got one super slow heelflip, one super slow halfcab heel, first try slow fakie varial flip, slow f/s halfcab flip, maybe a couple other slow tricks.
(setup null 8.25 lazer deck, 5.8 venture black icon trucks, bones bushings (medium big bottom one, hard small top one), no washers inside each axle, bones 51mm stf v1 pj wheels, new balance numeric 345 black/white size 12, old rubbery sole tech insoles)
(pain level 4/10 and my right foot was so cold)
