Went to dog park on the first day of trying a 20 hour fast. Somehow I felt totally fine. We all arrived basically the same time. There were a couple others at times. Dave L switch ollied the wallie barrier! I tried to get his back with a regular ollie, but yet again I barely bonked the back wheels. I would never get it clean, but did get over it a few times. Eric snapped it clean. He 180’d it too. Eric had some nice front 50, 5-0 and tails on the benches. Dave back 180’d and kickflipped the small metal ledge pretty casual. I was kinda all over. Didn’t do anything out of the ordinary, but was happy with 2nd try b/s flip, 2nd try fakie nosegrind, almost noseslide 270 shove, front 50 180 the bench, actually tried front 50 back 180 out. Bummed I missed f/s halfcab flips, 3 flips. Eric got on some back heels. It turns out an hour of skating is a pretty good amount of time for there.

After a weekend of skating with so many people I wanted a chill solo sesh where I could do whatever. I went to the new hot spot, the research wood benches. I had put my newer 52mm bones back on and they seemed to help me get up the ledge easier, but man, they were hard to flip. I got phantom flips, but ollies did seem better. Weird. First warm up line was front 180 the small brick section, switch front noseslide, fakie flip. Took a few tries. Next was ollie off a ledge over a tiny ice gap, ollie onto another, off, crooks the low part of the main one, then backside flip on flat. The b/s flip happened 2nd try which hyped me up. Then I tried a couple lines going back and forth. Switch ollie the small brick gap, halfcab noseslide, 360 flip. Never got the 360 flip. Going the other way I tried to do the quick up then front 50 the top. Man it was hard. You all know how hard ollies are for me so to do two somewhat quick was hard. When I finally got it I was exhausted and took off. Maybe I shouldn’t do all my physical therapy exercises right before skating and tire myself out.
