Tired from a long day at work followed by a stressful attempt at getting all the Null stuff I had to get done.  I brought some boards to FedEx then headed to the ol’ baseline Safeway to skate the crappy ledge thats there.  I started off sucking.  Really sucking.  I guess having wider wheels messes with your grinds.  Ugh.  It took me a long time to land anything.  I settled in to trying a line of back 180 a gutter, halfcab flip then back 50.  First the back 180 took forever.  Then when I finally had that dialed the halfcab flip took forever and lastly I had problems with the back 50.  I blame the new shoes mostly.  Ugh.  I eventually got the line and I did feel quite a bit better.  Coming the other way I would try front crooks and got a few little jib ones.  After getting the line I just started trying kickflip 50s and front tails.  I got a few kick 50s and even came close to kick 50 shove out.  I would love to get that some day.  I got a couple ok front tails, but it’s hard on that ledge because it’s uphill.  Not the greatest session, but I am still getting used to the new setup.  5 – 9 inches of snow tomorrow night.  LAME.
