skate journal: flatground 10×10 blah (june 16, 2021)
On a hot afternoon I went over to the side of the school to skate flat in the shade. It ended up being kinda cloudy and windy at times. I had brought a bigger setup with me too, but ended up not even really trying it. I did some basic warm ups up to the kickflip/no comply 180/fakie flip line. Then I decided a 10×10 was in order. I made a list.
Halfcab flip – got one right away, but my phone wasn’t recording so then took several tries to get another one.
Heelflip – got one in a few tries.
Bs flip – Got a terrible one and couldn’t clean it up
Halfcab heel – same
Treflip – same
Nollie tre – only one was remotely close
Switch front heel – not even close
Fakie big flip – took 20 tries to get the terrible one
Nollie big flip – felt close, but sure doesn’t look it
Back heel – not close
