Was hoping to avoid dog park a little this week, but I woke up early and the forecast said rain (it barely rained). I did alright. There were only a few things to take away from this session. First, low trucks mess with some tricks, but somehow I do appear to have better pop. I snapped over the mini cinder block ledge super easy which motivated me to try and finally get a clean ollie over the wallier barrier. It’s eluded me for a year. I’ve ollied it plenty of times with a slight bonk, but this was the first clean one. Felt pretty cool. Only other thing I remember was trying halfcab noseslide 270 shoves on the cinder block ledge and they felt doable even if I didn’t get close. Oh, and I struggled with the back 50 on the new pad again.
