Thought I was feeling much better so I went out to the garage armed with a list of tricks that are mostly impossible for me. I figured once I got the first kickflip I would try each trick 5 times, rest a little and move on. The list:

Fakie flip
Bs flip
Halfcab flip
Heelflip
Fakie heelflip
Switch flip
Nollie flip
Halfcab backfoot flip
Halfcab heel
Treflip
Nollie varial flip
Nollie tre
Nollie varial heel
Fakie hardflip
Sw fs flip

As expected the results were terrible, but only trying 5 times was fun in that it would make me quickly. The first kickflip took like 10 tries. Fakie flip was quick, bs flip and halfcab flip were both first try. Then i didn’t land anything after that. Wasn’t close to any of the heelflip tricks, well kinda close to halfcab heel. Nollie flip, nollie tre and treflip were the only other close tricks. I enjoyed hucking and felt pretty good after that. But a day later as I write this boy did I pay dearly. Covid kicked back in fierce. I had only skated about 40 minutes in my warm garage. Ugh.

Feeling the funk from covid still I went out for a ultra quick flatground session. I had debated what setup to go into 2022 with the goal of not switching and decided on 8.3. We’ll see how long it lasts. It felt big at first since I’ve been on 8 and 8.25 recently. I also felt super out of it and weird. Did a few 180s, shoves. Would rest between. Then tried a kickflip which took awhile. Took 3 of them before I had a remotely clean one. Then I called it because I could feel myself wanting to ignore the sickness and keep skating.
