skate journal: brief garage randomness (jan 15, 2019)
Posted in Skate Journal on January 16th, 2019 by corpoWent out to the garage right before dinner. Randomly decided to try and manual the plastic 2×10 thing I have from the SWAB ledge. Got kinda close. It’s scary because it’s so narrow. Then I tried back nosegrinds for a bit. Then Liz gave me a ‘3 minute’ warning and I decided to try a treflip in that time and got one 8th try. It’s still surprising to me how much easier smaller boards flip around.
(setup old 8″ null, venture 5.2 v-hollow high trucks, 50mm bones stf, 3 speed washers on the inside of each axle to make it feel a little wider, bones medium bushings, Adidas City Cups b/w size 12, stock insoles)
(pain level 3/10)
