skate journal: woke redder curbs as it keeps raining (june 22, 2023)
After a run to 303 I went to redder curbs. I was armed with the same setup except Ventures. It was way better, but pretty hefty. I took forever to get a warm up line of parking block ollie, front slappy, ride on grind, front tail stall a curb, kickflip. The ollies over the parking block were so bad, so weird. Also had some slow front 50s on the curbs which felt good, slappy crooks obviously. Tried a line for a bit of kick back tail a curb then bs flip the hump. Never got either trick, but was somewhat close to both. After a while I had changed from 272s to 868s and felt less pain (until my bunion would swell up later). But they did feel good to kickflip in.
