skate journal: short blah dog park (aug 21, 2024)

Didn’t sleep well, long day in the office, but it was nice out so stopped by dog park. Paul and Rob joined. As did some youth that were flying around the park. One dude in particular with some incredibly fast lipslides on the low bar, heelflips and treflips going mach 10. He was chill, but man it was crazy being around that type of energy. I spent some time on a nollie tail 270 shove on the curb that I tried to do while sliding but probably came to a half first. Had some okay crooks and kickflips. Couldn’t halfcab flip again though. My knee was hurting. Rob was in a bit of a funk and his trucks that were half way through the axle were not helping the grinds. Paul had some of his normals. Paul and I played a game of SKATE when Rob left. I think kickflip was the only flipper, I lost. Then I left.
