Woke up really early.  Whenever I have a terrible time skating I should take the next day or two off.  Instead I got to a mediocre skatepark at 6:30am.  I was pretty stiff, but not too sore.  I credit the Puig’s, they are decent for reducing pain, unfortunately board feel too.  After some total nothing carving around slow and some ‘nollie’ shoves I started with the warm up lines.  First one was switch nose jib, boardslide the rail, ollie to fakie the bank.  Next was ollie onto the little manny pad, front 180 off, fakie flip, switch front nose.  Never quite got that.  One that took a bit was front 50, ollie the bank hip, then front tail the little hip.  Took me a few tries to get a b/s flip on the main bank.  Then did more and followed with a kickflip to fakie near the main hip.  That was the highlight for me, it was downhill after that.  Couldn’t get front 50 shove, back 50 the little ledge or kickflip to fakie the main bank.  Argh.
