skate journal: more garage flipping (oct 30, 2019)
The snow finally stopped, but it surely hasn’t melted yet. Went into the garage before dinner. Started with the straight 8 then mostly random mirrors in intervals of roughly 10. This time I finally got a fakie heel, but it was terrible. The first heelflip came pretty quick, but I never got a clean one. The 4 hard ones were no closer, but I committed to all of them. Got a treflip pretty quick, switch tre was not close at all. Couldn’t get halfcab heel, nollie inward heel. Got a few b/s flips, switch b/s flip was not close. Really close to varial heel, tried it switch for the first time ever and was nowhere near it. But I feel like forcing myself to try so many GleNBD tricks can only help my board control and awareness.
