skate journal: brief flatground achilles pain es shoes suck (nov 3, 2021)
Posted in setup change, Skate Journal on November 4th, 2021 by corpoAfter a couple days off I went across the street to skate some flatground. But on the walk there my achilles started hurting pretty bad and got worse as I tried to skate. I had done a few 180s, shoves, but not gotten to the kickflip stage. Argh.
